From: Sublethal effects of a vapour-active pyrethroid, transfluthrin, on Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus (Diptera: Culicidae) fecundity and oviposition behaviour

Fig. 3

The LC10, LC20, and LC30 of transfluthrin were tested on Aedes aegypti (L.) (n = 30) and Ae. albopictus (Skuse) (n = 30). Compound bar graphs represent the counts of collapsed eggs (Ae. aegypti), viable eggs, eggs retained in the parent female, and melanisation of retained eggs (Ae. albopictus) following oviposition in a six-cup arena. The sums of: Collapsed or Melanized + Viable + Retained = total egg production, Collapsed + Viable = total eggs oviposited, Viable + Retained = yield that could recruit to the next generation. Figures are shown with 95% confidence as I-bars. Tables beneath graph detail range and mean counts per ovicup in the bioassay as ‘Viable [˗Collapsed]’
