Sugar meals in Phlebotominae and Simuliidae (Diptera)

SYNOPSIS The significance of sugar-feeding by blood-sucking Nematocera is briefly discussed, with special reference to Phlebotominae and Simuliidae. An account is given of the sugar content of the crops of some of these flies, as shown by chromatography.
