Molecular identification of mosquito species

1999-09-01

Abstract excerpt

Complexes of closely related cryptic species, that are indistinguishable morphologically yet have different ecology and host preferences, are widespread in mosquitoes. The advantages of DNA-based methods of identification mean that they have now largely replaced other methods of species determination for such complexes. Here we discuss the relative merits of three different approaches to species identification, al...
