Evolutionary relationships among several species from the genus Cricotopus (Diptera: Chironomidae): What about Turkish representatives of this genus?
Abstract:The genus Cricotopus (Diptera: Chironomidae) has a worldwide distribution and possesses a wide variation in ecology and habitat preference across its distribution.
Identification ofCricotopus species and distinguishing them from the species of closely related genera (i.e., Orthocladius and Paratrichocladius) are generally difficult. This study purposed to investigate the evolutionary history of several Cricotopus species, with a main focus on Cricotopus bicinctus, C. flavocinctus, C. triannulatus, C. patens, C… Show more
