Critical data are not available regarding the frequency of insemination of individual female Acdes aegypti. Males may inseminate as many as 6 or more females (Roth, 1948;Jones and Wheeler, 1965), and various authors have noted that females may mate several times. Subsequent matings, however, are of shorter duration than the first (Spielman, 1964). In a brief abstract, Vandehey and Craig (1958) indicated that multiple insemination may occasionally occur in caged populations.
