The Hyrcanus Group of Anopheles (Anopheles) in China (Diptera: Culicidae): Species Discrimination and Phylogenetic Relationships Inferred by Ribosomal DNA Internal Transcribed Spacer 2 Sequences

Abstract excerpt

The Hyrcanus group comprises many closely related species with wide distributions in the Oriental and Palaearctic regions. The sequences of the second internal transcribed spacer (ITS2) of ribosomal DNA were determined for 12 species in China--An. crawfordi, An. hyrcanus, An. junlianensis, An. kunmingensis, An. kweiyangensis, An. lesteri, An. liangshanensis, An. peditaeniatus, An. pullus, An. sinensis, and two...
