Taxonomy and molecular phylogeny of black flies (Diptera: Simuliidae) in Africa and Europe by using mitochondrial Cox1 and nuclear ITS2 markers

2023-07-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Black flies are present worldwide and are represented by 2,348 species (2,331 living species and 17 fossils) classified under 31 genera. In Africa, 124 species of black flies have been described, of which 55 are known to occur in Cameroon. However, these identifications are all based on morphology and, for S. damnosum only, on cytotaxonomic studies. Little has yet been achieved by modern mole...
