Description

Anopheles hinesorum, a member of the An. punctulatus group, is a widely distributed mosquito species in Australasia. The distribution offers an opportunity to study the population genetic structure of mosquitoes within this region. We determined the genetic variations of An. hinesorum on Guadalcanal and Malaita of the Solomon Islands using cytochrome oxidase subunit 2 (COII) sequences. This study revealed that the Guadalcanal population is expanding rapidly, whereas the Malaita population is stationary, and although no genetic structure is present within the islands, significant genetic differentiation is present between the Guadalcanal and Malaita populations.
