> Mosquito females cannot submit genetic samples of potential mates to a sequencing laboratory. They cannot determine which of two males has a "bigger genetic mix".
Of course they can, you don't need to sequence DNA to get an idea of genetic affinity, you have the phenotype.
I don't know about mosquitoes, but all higher animals obviously judge mates on genetics (based on the phenotype).
