Biological control and population regulation potential ofAscogregarina barretti(Vavra), a parasite ofAedes triseriatus(Say), was assessed using simulated tree holes in a laboratory experiment and discarded tires in a field experiment. In the laboratory experiment, emergence, development time, and size of maleA. triseriatuswere not affected byA. barrettiinfection when food was limited. However, severely infected female mosquitoes had prolonged development time and were smaller compared with noninfected females when larvae had to compete for food. In the field experiment,A. barrettiinfection did not affect emergence success, development time, or size ofA. triseriatusmales or females. We conclude thatA. barrettihas no potential as a control agent forA. triseriatus,but it may have a role in population regulation mediated through a lowering of female fecundity.
