Immature Anopheles stephensi Liston were reared in untreated water and water containing eight 2-fold dilutions of rubidium (Rb) from 1,000 to 7.8 ppm to determine the concentration that allowed reliable detection and produced the least toxic effects as measured by adult emergence, weight, and survival. The amount of Rb detected in mosquitoes increased positively with increasing concentrations in the rearing water. Concentrations > or = 31.2 ppm Rb in the rearing water provided high and consistent detection levels of > or = 3,500 ppm Rb/mg of adult mosquito. There were no adverse effects of Rb on the weights of mosquitoes. However, increased Rb concentrations in the rearing water were associated with decreased emergence and survival. After 8 d, percentage emergence from Rb concentrations of 0-31.2 ppm was > or = 50%. At day 21, Rb concentrations of 0-31.2 ppm showed < or = 29% reduction of female survival compared with controls. The recommended concentration for reliable Rb detection with minimal toxic effects in An. stephensi was 32 ppm.
