Phylogenetic analyses of the sequences of the Nevermannia species and other species of related subgenera of Simulium s.l. showed that the feuerborni and vernum species-groups were closely related, but the ruficorne species-group and S. konoi were not. Variations between the ruficorne species-group and other Nevermannia species were larger than those between Nevermannia species (excluding the ruficorne species-group) and other subgenera species. These molecular data suggest that revision of the definition of the subgenus Nevermannia is needed., 日本熱帯医学会雑誌, vol.29(2), pp.261-266; 2001}, pages = {261--266}, title = {PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSES OF A BLACKFLY SUBGENUS SIMULIUM (NEVERMANNIA) BASED ON MITOCHONDRIAL 16S RIBOSOMAL RNA GENE SEQUENCES}, volume = {29}, year = {2001} }
