• To know the effects on emergence, longevity, fertility and mating competitiveness, 2-day-old male pupae of Culex pipiens molestus were irradiated with various dosages of ^<60>Co gamma rays ranging from 1,000 to 12,000 R. Few effects of the gamma irradiation on both emergence and longevity were noticed. However, high levels of egg-mortality could be produced in males by exposing pupae to irradiation. Exposure to 10,000 R produced 99.1% egg-mortality and a dose of 12,000 R gave a 99.9% egg-mortality. Competitiveness test showed that mating activity of radiosterilie males was lower than that of the normal males.
