Wing geometry as a tool for studying the Lutzomyia longipalpis (Diptera: Psychodidae) complex
1 Nov 2001
Abstract excerpt
Toro Toro (T) and Yungas (Y) have been described as genetically well differentiated populations of the Lutzomyia longipalpis (Lutz & Neiva, 1912) complex in Bolivia. Here we use geometric morphometrics to compare samples from these populations and new populations (Bolivia and Nicaragua), representing distant geographical origins, qualitative morphological variation ("one-spot" or "two-spots" phenotypes),...
