Abstract
Mosquitoes play an important role in global disease transmission. The diseases that they transmit impact directly on the human and animal health. Our study aimed the evaluation of two blood meals (Cattle blood and Chicken blood), on the duration of the development, the biochemical composition of ovaries and the reproductive parameters in Anopheles maculipennis Meigen, 1818. Data showed that the fecundity was significantly higher (p
