(Skuse, 1894) has a widespread distribution that includes both temperate and tropical climates. It is a potential vector of several important worldwide arboviruses, including chikungunya, zika, and dengue, and its geographical distribution expands rapidly. Despite its vectorial importance, the bioecological features of this species in newly established environments are still not very well known. Thus, this study investigated phenotypic variations among . populations from different regions in Turkey. This is the first comparative morphological study of . populations in Turkey. The procrustes distances phenogram derived from wing data indicates that the shape differences among some populations and the population from the Aegean coast differ from the Black Sea populations. Size differences were also detected between some populations.
(Skuse, 1894) 分布广泛,包括温带和热带气候。它是几种重要的世界范围虫媒病毒(包括基孔肯雅热、寨卡和登革热)的潜在媒介,其地理分布迅速扩大。尽管它具有媒介的重要性,但该物种在新建立的环境中的生物生态特征仍不是很清楚。因此,本研究调查了来自土耳其不同地区的 种群之间的表型变异。这是对土耳其 种群的首次比较形态学研究。基于翅数据的普罗克鲁斯距离 phenogram 表明,一些种群和爱琴海沿岸种群与黑海种群之间的形态差异以及某些种群之间的大小差异。
