Abstract
▶ Female Culex quinquefasciatus adults live longer when fed amino acids in their adult diet, no matter what their larval diet. ▶ Male and female Cx. quinquefasciatus live longer overall when fed a diet containing sugar than when sugar was omitted from the adult diet. ▶ Male Cx. quinquefasciatus adults live longer when fed a low-food larval diet, whereas females live longer when fed a high-food larval diet.
