The authors express the hope, couched in chronobiological terminology, that if a predator (in this case the recently-described Indian belostomatid bug Diplonychus indicus) is sufficiently voracious to mosquito larvae, then elaborate intervention might transform it into an even more practical means of solving mosquito-borne diseases, world-wide, than it already is perceived by the authors to be.
