Allele frequencies at enzyme loci have been studied in Finnish populations of two species of the Anopheles maculipennis complex: A. beklemishevi and A. messeae. A. beklemishevi is spread over central and northern Finland, whereas A. messeae is found in southwestern and central Finland. The allele frequencies of these two species exhibit both similarities and differences. The results indicate that the two species do not interbreed in the nature. The allele frequencies at two loci--Hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (Hbdh) and Superoxide dismutase-2 (Su-2)--are almost totally different and adult individuals of the two species can be reliably diagnosed by these allelic differences. The genetic distance, D, between A. beklemishevi and A. messeae is 0.35. This value is compared with corresponding distances between other dipterans studied.
贝氏按蚊和迷走按蚊的种群中，对酶位点的等位基因频率进行了研究。贝氏按蚊分布于芬兰中部和北部，而迷走按蚊则见于芬兰西南部和中部。这两个物种的等位基因频率既有相似之处，也有不同之处。结果表明，这两个物种在自然环境中不杂交。两个位点——羟基丁酸脱氢酶（Hbdh）和超氧化物歧化酶-2（Su-2）——的等位基因频率几乎完全不同，并且可以通过这些等位基因差异可靠地诊断出这两个物种的成年个体。贝氏按蚊和迷走按蚊之间的遗传距离D为0.35。将这个值与其他研究过的双翅目昆虫之间的相应距离进行了比较。
