DNA barcoding of tropical black flies (Diptera: Simuliidae) of Thailand.

Molecular ecology resources - 1 Mar 2014

Pramual Pairot, Adler Peter H

Abstract excerpt

The ecological and medical importance of black flies drives the need for rapid and reliable identification of these minute, structurally uniform insects. We assessed the efficiency of DNA barcoding for species identification of tropical black flies. A total of 351 cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 sequences were obtained from 41 species in six subgenera of the genus Simulium in Thailand. Despite high intraspecific...
