A cytogenetic analysis of the <i>Simulium ochraceum</i> species complex (Diptera: Simuliidae) in Central America

1 Feb 1994

Abstract excerpt

A cytobiotaxonomic study of the medically important insect vector Simulium ochraceum s.l. revealed two sibling species and one cytotype from various endemic and nonendemic zones of human onchocerciasis in Guatemala and Mexico. Polytene chromosome maps and idiograms as well as notes on the biology of the three taxa designated S. ochraceum A, S. ochraceum B, and S. ochraceum C within the subgenus Psilopelmia are...
