The egg-hatching time distribution. The An. gambiae egg-hatching time distribution has a strong positive skew, with 89% of the eggs hatching during the second and third day after oviposition, 10% hatching during the next four days, and the remaining 1% hatching over the subsequent week [20]. The x-axis denotes hatching time (in days), and the y-axis denotes the probability of hatching.
