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.

International Journal of Zoology, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015 The purpose of this study is to create distribution models of seventeen Lutzomyia species in Venezuela. Presence records were obtained from field collections over 30 years by several research teams. We used maximum entropy method for model construction based on 30 arc‐second resolution environmental layers: 19 bioclimatic variables, elevation, and land

Revista de saude publica, 1988 The fluctuation of the larval population and characteristics of the breeding places of Anopheles (Kerteszia) neivai were studied in the village of Charambirá, Istmina county, Department of Chocó. This mosquito species is considered to be the malaria vector in this region of the Pacific coast of Colombia.

, 1988 En la localidad de Charambirá, situada en el município de Istmina (Chocó) en la costa Pacífica de Colombia, se presenta un problema de malaria endémica asociada con grandes poblaciones de mosquitos Anopheles del subgénero Kerteszia (A. neivai). Estos se crían en las colecciones de agua formadas por plantas epífitas de la família Bromeliaceae, que son ...
