Abstract

There is high diversity of Anopheles mosquitoes in Southeast Asia and the main vectors of malaria belong to complexes or groups of species that are difficult or impossible to distinguish due to overlapping morphological characteristics. Recent advances in molecular systematics have provided simple and reliable methods for unambiguous species identification. This review summarizes the latest information on the seven taxonomic groups that include principal malaria vectors in Southeast Asia, i.e. the Minimus, Fluviatilis, Culicifacies, Dirus, Leucosphyrus, and Sundaicus Complexes, and the Maculatus Group. Main issues still to be resolved are highlighted. The growing knowledge on malaria vectors in Southeast Asia has implications for vector control programs, the success of which is highly dependant on precise information about the biology and behavior of the vector species. Acquisition of this information, and consequently the application of appropriate, sustainable control measures, depends on our ability to accurately identify the specific vectors.
