Detritus and larval competition treatments
| Urban level | Detritus level | Detritus combinations | Total detritus (g) | AE:AM density |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| High | Low | G:D:M (0.150 g each) | 0.45 | 30:0; 60:0; 30:30; 60:60 |
| Medium | Medium | G:D:A:M (0.225 g each) | 0.90 | 30:0; 60:0; 30:30; 60:60 |
| Low | High | G:D:A:F:M (0.360 g each) | 1.80 | 30:0; 60:0; 30:30; 60:60 |
AE Ae. aegypti, AM Ae. mediovittatus, G Gryllodes sigillatus (cricket), D Drosophila melanogaster (flies), A Albizia lebbeck (Siris), F Ficus virens (white fig), M Mangifera indica (mango). A 1:1 sex ratio was assumed for all replicates; therefore, estimates of female survival are based on this assumption and should be interpreted with this limitation in mind
