Abstract excerpt
A new putative taxon of the Anopheles gambiae complex - genetically related to the two main malaria vector species of the complex, An. gambiae and An. coluzzii - was recently described at the westernmost extremes of the two species' range based on WGS data from The MalariaGEN Vector Observatory, and named BISSAU molecular form. This was found resting in human dwellings, in sympatry with An. gambiae and An....
