Abstract

Polytene chromosome preparations of the ovarian nurse cells of Anopheles culicifacies females collected in 6 different parts of Baluchistan, Iran, during September-October 1987 and May-June 1988 revealed the existence of species A in this country. The chromosome arms are homosequential with those of species A of India. This report confirms the distribution of species A in Iran.
