摘要

The Anopheles quadrimaculatus s.l. (Say) complex consists of at least five species distinguished by distribution, genetic incompatibility, and allele frequencies. However, the distributions of the members have only been described by collection locations. Building on this information and environmental data, preliminary predictions of their distribution were produced using a genetic algorithm and point occurrence data. Based on resulting predicted border areas and undersampled regions, we obtained and analyzed additional geo-referenced specimens and compared their distribution with our preliminary predictions. We found good agreement between the preliminary predictions and the subsequent collections, regardless of the fact that additional specimens were deliberately sought from areas most likely to reveal inconsistencies. Final predicted distributions describe widespread distribution of A.quadrimaculatus throughout the eastern United States. A. maverlius and A. smaragdinus have similar predicted ranges limited to the southeastern United States. The predicted ranges of the sister taxa A. diluvialis and A. inundatus were similar to one another along the southeastern coast even though they seem to be allopatric. The historical role of A. quadrimaculatus s.l. in transmission of malaria was also examined. We conclude that A. quadrimaculatus s.s. was the only species of the complex capable of vectoring malaria in the United States throughout the area in which malaria occurred. However, any or all the members of the complex may have been regionally important, particularly in areas of most intense transmission.

(说)复合体至少由五个物种组成,这些物种的分布,遗传不相容性和等位基因频率是不同的。但是,成员的分布仅按收集位置进行了描述。在此信息和环境数据的基础上,使用遗传算法和点出现数据对它们的分布进行了初步预测。基于生成的预测边界区域和欠采样区域,我们获得并分析了其他地理参考样本,并将其分布与我们的初步预测进行了比较。我们发现,在初步预测和随后的采集之间达成了良好的一致性,无论是否有意从最有可能显示出不一致之处的地方寻找其他标本。最终的预测分布描述了整个美国东部广泛分布的拟南芥。 Aaver.maverlius和A.smaragdinus具有相似的预测范围,仅限于美国东南部。姊妹类群A. diluvialis和A. inundatus的预测范围沿东南海岸彼此相似,尽管它们似乎是异源的。四棱A的历史作用还研究了疟疾传播途径。我们得出的结论是四棱线菌在整个疟疾发生地区,它是美国唯一能够传播疟疾的综合体物种。但是,该综合大楼的任何或所有成员可能在区域上都很重要,特别是在传播最密集的地区。
