Pupal mass is significantly correlated with the fecundity of femaleAedes aegypti(Diptera: Culicidae); larger females mature more eggs than smaller females. Large pupal mass ameliorates the effects of starvation on adults of both sexes. Mass has no effect on the probability of being inseminated (for adult females) or inseminating (for adult males). Thus, larval growth directly affects the fecundity survival of individuals as adults. Also, it is likely that females will maximize their mass at pupation, whereas males will minimize age at pupation and maximize mass secondarily.
