DNA barcoding of Neotropical Simuliidae

BRAZIL


VENEZUELA


PERU


BOLIVIA


MEXICO


1040 specimens analyzed

76 species

Mean intraspecific genetic divergence for well-established species was 1.01%

Fifteen species had maximum intraspecificdivergence higher than 2.5% (species complex)

Up to date:


More 150 specimens being sequenced10 new species added in the BOLD database

10 days agos we spent 2 weeks in Mexico collecting aquatic insects in the Southern region. We have more 15 new species of Simuliidae to be added in the BOLD database.


Totally, we have more than 100 species of

Neotropical black flies (about 1/3 of all species

recorded for this biogeographic realm).

OBRIGADO !THANK YOU!
