Average and accumulated activity over the 24 h day in An. farauti and An. hinesorum mosquitoes. Twenty-four hour distribution of mosquito flight activity measured by infrared beam breaks of An. farauti (blue) and An. hinesorum (red) females regardless of reproductive status under LD cycle conditions. a Activity counts per minute (mean ± SEM). b Total activity within each hourly time bin (mean ± SEM). c Accumulation of daily total mosquito activity. Statistical analysis of accumulation data performed at 50 and 75% of total daily activity (Additional file 3: Figure S3). Data lines represent average percent measures. Zeitgeber times as for Fig. 1 legend. Day and night are indicated by horizontal white/black bars. Two-factor repeated measures ANOVA was performed followed by Tukey’s post-hoc tests, ***P < 0.001
