Distribution and chromosomal polymorphism of the malaria vector Anopheles dirus species D.

Preliminary results indicate that species D of the Anopheles dirus complex is widespread west of the Thai-Burma border in Burma and Bangladesh. A chromosomal study of An. dirus species D in these areas has revealed that this malaria vector is highly polymorphic for chromosomal rearrangements in sali...
