Abstract
A method for the storage of non-diapausing eggs of Simulium ornatum Meigen has been developed. High survival rates for 5-6 months depend on the age of eggs when placed at reduced temperature. A period of precooling or conditioning is required for 28 days before storage of the eggs at 1 degree C with lowering of oxygen partial pressure. Induced quiescence does not appear to affect development from egg to adult.
