Mosquito larva in Hooke's Micrographia (1665)
Mosquito larva in Hooke's 'Micrographia'. 17th-century illustration of the appearance of a 'water-insect or gnat' (since identified as a Culex mosquito larva) viewed with a microscope by English natural philosopher Robert Hooke (1635-1703). Hooke observed this larva in samples of pond and river water, particularly stagnant pools of water. The smaller drawings at upper left show different stages of the insect's metamorphosis. Hooke pioneered the new science of microscopy and published detailed drawings of observations made with his microscopes. This illustration appeared in his 'Micrographia' (1665). Hooke was one of the founding fellows (1663) of the Royal Society, and served as its Curator of Experiments and as its Secretary.
