At the close of the experiment in November all squares were exam- 

 hied and the following stages were found remaining in them : 9 dead 

 adults, 5 live adults, 7 live pupse, and 12 live larvae. The live adults 

 were found only in squares receiving eggs after October 14, so it is 

 quite possible that they would still have emerged. The immature 

 stages were in the later lots of squares and probably had not had 

 time to become adult.
