Use of DNA barcoding to distinguish the malaria vector Anopheles neivai in Colombia. [PDF]
Zootaxa, 2016 A reference 535 bp barcode sequence from a fragment of the mitochondrial gene cytochrome oxidase I (COI), acquired from specimens of An. neivai Howard, Dyar & Knab, 1913 from its type locality in Panama, was used as a tool for distinguishing this species from others in the subgenus Kerteszia. Comparisons with corresponding regions of COI between An.

Ecoregional and altitudinal distribution of the principal malaria vectors in Colombia [PDF]
Malaria JournalBackground In Colombia, with over 100,000 cases reported in 2023, malaria is a significant vector-borne disease. The wide range of climates and highly variable topography and land cover of the country support a high species richness, favouring different ...
