Short Lifespans of Male Mosquitoes - Nature 140

We have posted the lifespans of female mosquitoes with maximum about 5 months only in nature. 


Image 01 - Live of male mosquitoes (from Google)

You may read previous posting of female mosquitoes:

However, male mosquitoes have shorter lifespans than female mosquitoes, just about 7 days. 

Male mosquitoes live solely to mate with females and die shortly after. Once they have fulfilled their mating role, they are no longer essential for the species continuation. The biological purposes have been reached.

  4. Los mosquitos tendrán su función en el ecosistema, no lo dudo, pero qué pesados y desagradables son.
    Este año me picaron, y tuve las piernas y brazos llenas de picaduras. Un besote, menos mal que su vida es corta jajajá.

  10. In recent years I have not had much trouble with mosquitoes here but more of those moth flies and they come in through the ventilation grilles they made here with a renovation in window. The larvae make holes in my clothes. Grr. We also have bats here and they eat a lot from the air in dark evening. Glad they made these cabinets on wall outside. Wish you lovely weekend.

  11. Querida amiga, acá entramos recién en primavera y todavía no se ven mucho pero en el verano aparecen como nubes de mosquito, el clima es propicio para ellos, todo el día con repelente, el año pasado tuvimos varios casos de Dengue.
    Abrazos y te dejo un besito, que tengas un feliz día

  13. I didn’t know male mosquitoes only live about 7 days, while females can last up to 5 months. It’s crazy how nature works, with males living just to mate and then they're done. Interesting stuff!

  17. Ciao, nella mia zona ci sono tantissime zanzare... Penso si chiamino "zanzare tigre". Anche se siamo in autunno se ne possono trovare ancora molte.
    Un bacio 😘

  20. Qué curioso...
    Estoy pensando que si sólo viven unos 7 días y en ese tiempo andan muy ocupados apareándose... ¿entonces las que nos pican son las hembras?
    Ay ayyy! jeje
    Me encantó leerte.
