Mosquitoes of the Anopheles maculipennis complex were collected as overwintering adults in a disused war fortification near the Cliffe marshes in the county of Kent, southeast England in January 2002. Fifty-three adult females were collected and fifty-two of these were identified as either An. atroparvus van Thiel or An. messeae Falleroni on the basis of similarity to rDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS2) sequences in GenBank. Forty specimens (76.9%) were identified as An. messeae and 12 (23.1%) as An. atroparvus. DNA sequences for these species from England are provided for the first time, which enhance knowledge of the species composition and distribution of the An. maculipennis complex in England.

Progeny broods of An. maculipennis s.l. from Greece were identified as An. subalpinus Hackett & Lewis based on egg morphology and the original species descriptions. DNA sequence data from members of the progeny broods were compared to previously published sequences for members of the An. maculipennis complex. The sequences were 99.54-100% identical to those of An. melanoon Hackett, typified by its uniformly black egg. These results are discussed in relation to those of other workers, and An. subalpinus is formally synonymised with An. melanoon.

SP - 31 EP - 36 AB -

Bloodfed Anopheles maculipennis s.l. females were collected resting in and around sheepfolds in the northwestern prefecture of Florina, Greece. The specimens were identified as An. maculipennis and An. messeae on the basis of similarity to published DNA sequence data for the rDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS2) region. Novel DNA sequences were obtained for the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase I gene (COl) for both species. Correlations of COl and ITS2 sequences were used to identitfy specimens, with respect to ITS2 sequences in Genbank. These results constitute new distribution records for these two species in northwestern Greece.

Revised keys are provided for the identification of the adult female mosquitoes of Greece. Fifty-seven species representing eight genera are recognised. Separate keys are included for the genera and the species and subspecies belonging to each genus. The keys include a number of new characters that have not been used previously for the identification of European mosquitoes.
