19. The time needed to complete the malarial or schistosome parasites extrinsic development and for the digestion of a blood meal by the malaria mosquito can be expressed in the term D/(T -Tmin), whereby 'degree days' (D) represent the accumulation of temperature units over time, and threshold temperatures (Tmin) are those below which the process does not occur.

S., Age-Grouping Methods in Diptera of Medical Importance, World Health Organization, Monograph 47, Geneva, Switzerland, 1962; MacDonald, G., The Epidemiology and Control of Malaria, London, Oxford University Press, 1957.]

24. 1/2H = -2.176E30 and 447.17 K, respectively. The incubation period is completed as soon as the cumulative development exceeds 1.0. The first gonotrophic cycle is completed when the cumulative development rate exceeds 1.0. Subsequent cycles are completed when the cumulative rate has increased by an additional 0.58.
