Identical small subunit rDNA sequences were obtained for microsporidia Amblyospora rugosa from blood-sucking mosquitoes larvae Ochlerotatus cantans, O. cataphylla and copepods Acanthocyclops venustus, as well as for Trichoctosporea pygopellita from mosquitoes larvae Ochlerotatus cyprius, O. excrucians and copepods Acanthocyclops reductus. The data on molecular phylogeny and ecological researches show that in Siberia mosquito-parasitic microsporidia of the genera Amblyospora and Trichoctosporea have complex life cycle involving likely intermediate hosts, Acanthocyclops copepods. Life cycle of parasites is synchronized with phenology of their hosts. The phylogenetic analyses shows, that genus Trichoctosporea should be transferred from the family Thelohaniidae to the family Amblyosporidae.
从吸血蚊虫幼虫（如加拿大伊蚊、卡塔菲伊蚊）和桡足类动物（如细纹剑水蚤）中获得的皱纹微孢子虫的小亚基核糖体DNA序列相同，从蚊虫幼虫（如塞浦路斯伊蚊、骚扰伊蚊）和桡足类动物（如瘦尾剑水蚤）中获得的皮氏三孢虫的小亚基核糖体DNA序列也相同。分子系统发育和生态学研究数据表明，在西伯利亚，属于微孢子虫属和三孢虫属的蚊虫寄生微孢子虫具有复杂的生命周期，可能涉及中间宿主——剑水蚤桡足类动物。寄生虫的生命周期与其宿主的物候同步。系统发育分析表明，三孢虫属应从泰勒科转移到微孢子科。
