Improved estimates for extinction probabilities and times to extinction for populations of tsetse (Glossina spp) by Damian, Kajunguri, Elisha B., Are, John W., Hargrove

“…We provide these proofs, together with a more compact way of reaching the same results. We also show that, while the published equations hold good for the case where tsetse produce male and female offspring in equal proportion, a different solution is required for the more general case where the probability (β) that an offspring is female lies anywhere in the interval (0, 1). …”
