Karyological identification of two taxa of the Anopheles balabacensis complex from Burma.
Giemsa and Hoechst staining of neuroblast chromosomes were used to identify two strains of the Anopheles balabacensis complex from Burma. The laboratory colony of Kwan-ka-thaung (KKT) strain is shown to correspond to A. dirus A, while the laboratory colony of Taikkyi (TKK) strain corresponds to A. dirus C as defined by earlier studies on material from Thailand.
