Specimens collected in Greece and Iran were identified on the basis of morphology and confirmed by correlation of their nuclear internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) rDNA sequences with those available in GenBank. The progeny of females collected in Greece were used for detailed morphological study. The morphology of the adults, pupa, fourth-instar larva and egg are described and distinguished from those of An. maculipennis, the nominotypical member of the Maculipennis Complex. In addition to sequence data for the nuclear ITS2 region, partial sequence data are provided for the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I gene. The taxonomy, systematics, bionomics and distribution of the species are reviewed.

Larvae and the progeny of wild-caught females were individually reared to obtain samples of all life stages for integrated morphological and molecular study. Specimens were identified on the basis of egg morphology and correlation of their ITS2 rDNA sequences with those in Gen-Bank. The adult, pupal, larval (fourth-instar) and egg stages are described, and all stages except the egg are illustrated. Partial sequence data are provided for the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) gene and complete sequences for the nuclear ITS2 region. Additionally, the bionomics and distribution of the species are reviewed, and its taxonomy and systematics are discussed. This study provides the first fully integrated morphological and molecular assessment of An. maculipennis, the nominotypical member of the Maculipennis Complex, and the type species of genus Anopheles, and serves as a foundation for further studies of the complex and subfamily Anophelinae.}, keywords = {Diptera}, author = {Linton, Y.-M. and Smith, L. and Koliopoulos, G. and Samanidou-Voyadjoglou, A. and Zounos, A.K. and Harbach, R.E.} }
