ABSTRACT
Mitotic chromosomal karyotypes and their heterochromatin banding of thirteen anopheline mosquitoes in China were observed. Five species belonging to subgenus Cellia were Anopheles maculatus, An. dints, An. kochi, An. splendidus and An. minimus. Eight species belonging to subgenus Anopheles were An. barbirostris, An. messeae, An. crawfordi, An. kunmingensis, An. kweiyangensis, An, hyrcanus, An. sinensis and An. anthropophagus. The results show that the interspecific differences of sex chromosomes and heterochromatin differences in autosomes are useful in anopheline sibling species identification. Two types of completely different chromosomal karyotypes of An. maculatus were found from Yunnan and Sichuan Provinces, and two types of obviously different heterochromatin banding of An. dims were found from Hainan and Yunnan Provinces. Thus, An. maculatus and An. dirus are respectively sibling species complex in China. The salivary gland polytene chromosomes of An. hyrcanus, An. sinensis and An. anthropophagus were also studied. The authors find that the main differ ences of polytene chromosomes of the three species are fixed paracentric inversions in arm 2L.
