Effects of blood sources on fertility and the ovariole maturation rate (proportion of ovarioles which produced mature eggs to total ovarioles) were studied in a malaria vector, Anopheles farauti Laveran, in the Solomon Islands. Blood of different mammals affected fertility and ovariole maturation rate. In the number of eggs and the rate, the difference was significant between females fed on humans and those fed on rats. Wild females of An. farauti had a mean of 140.5 eggs when fed on humans, compared to 216.1 with rats. A mean of 57.7% and 91.5% of total ovarioles produced mature eggs in females fed on humans and rats, respectively. The mean number of eggs and the ovariole maturation rate were not significantly different between the females fed on humans and those fed on dogs. Females obtained from a laboratory colony showed the same tendencies as wild females.
