Abstract__ Background Anopheles gambiae . Giles is a major malaria vector in Sub-Saharan Africa. Studies of the basic biology of this mosquito including oviposition provide a background for assessing which attributes might be exploited for suppressing A. gambiae populations. Here we report on when during the diel cycle A. gambiae individuals deposit eggs as compared to the ovipositional patterns of groups. Methods Battery-powered wall clocks were modified so as to present a unique section of dark and wet ovipositional substrate at hourly intervals over .
