Well if you insist I will come back.

The high caliber documentation I gave you, authored by entomologists, did not refer to the mosquito's proboscis as teeth. You are confused or just trying to spin a falsehood.


Narrow your post......you are all over the place.

I have already conceded....a word that seems foreign to you......that mosquitoes do not have mandibles. They do have a proboscis which is serrated like a knife in order to cut into the skin so they then can suck the blood of a mammal. The serrated proboscis can be considered to have 'teeth' but in the most exaggerated meaning of that word. They certainly are not the kind of teeth that we have. No need to respond......I think we have come to a dead end conclusion on this subject.
