title: [An analysis of the morphometric traits of the pupae of 3 populations of Testisimulium kondici (Diptera: Simuliidae)].
abstract: In the pupae of three populations of Testisimulium kondici (Bar.) the variations of nine quantitative characters are determined. The discrepancies between these populations are analyzed. With the help of statistical indices the specific distinctions of one of the studied populations from two others, which are not essentially different, is established. Earlier (Kachvorian, 1989; Kachvorian and Tonoian, 1990) karyological and phenotypical differences between the larvae of these populations were found. Considering that the isolated population develops under anthropogenic influence a link between the above discrepancies and this influence is assumed to exist.
