Among samples collected from nineteen localities in Papua New Guinea, we have identified six species within the Anopheles punctulatus complex of mosquitoes, by means of cellulose acetate allozyme electrophoresis. An.punctulatus Dönitz sensu stricto was collected from seven villages in the Madang area and from Buksak, Sausi Mission and an area 18 km SW of Tari; An.koliensis Owen from eight villages in the Madang area, from Popondetta and Brown River near Karema; and An.farauti No. 1 from ten coastal areas including Madang, Lorengau, Popondetta, Port Moresby, Rabaul and Wewak. Three newly recognized species, reported here for the first time, are designated as An.farauti No. 4 from Gonoa and Hudini, Madang area; An.farauti No. 5 from Ketarabo near Goroka; and An.farauti No. 6 from Hiwanda near Tari. Three other known members of the complex, An.clowi Rozeboom & Knight, An.farauti No. 2 (Bryan, 1973) and An.farauti No. 3 (Mahon & Meithke, 1982) were not detected in Papua New Guinea. Problems arising with morphological characters for the identification of species in this group are discussed.
在从巴布亚新几内亚19个地区采集的样本中，我们通过醋酸纤维素等位酶电泳，在按蚊属尖音库蚊复合体中鉴定出了6个物种。狭义的尖音库蚊（An.punctulatus Dönitz）采自马当地区的7个村庄以及布萨克、绍西传教区和塔里西南18公里处的一个地区；科氏按蚊（An.koliensis Owen）采自马当地区的8个村庄、波波代塔以及卡雷马附近的布朗河；法氏按蚊1号（An.farauti No. 1）采自包括马当、洛伦高、波波代塔、莫尔斯比港、拉包尔和韦瓦克在内的10个沿海地区。首次在此报道的3个新确认的物种，分别被命名为采自马当地区戈诺亚和胡迪尼的法氏按蚊4号；采自戈罗卡附近凯塔拉博的法氏按蚊5号；以及采自塔里附近希万达的法氏按蚊6号。该复合体的其他3个已知成员，即克洛维按蚊（An.clowi Rozeboom & Knight）、法氏按蚊2号（Bryan，1973）和法氏按蚊3号（Mahon & Meithke，1982）在巴布亚新几内亚未被检测到。文中讨论了该类群物种鉴定中形态特征所产生的问题。
