Formal taxonomy of species C of the Anopheles minimus sibling species complex (Diptera: Culicidae)
Zootaxa 1654, 41-54
Abstract: The nomenclatural identity of species C of the Anopheles minimus complex is resolved by excluding the available junior synonyms of the nominotypical member of the complex and naming it An. harrisoni Harbach and Manguin, sp. n. Anopheles formosaensis I Tsuzuki, An. christophersi Theobald and An. christophersi var. alboapicalis Theobald are retained as junior synonyms of An. minimus Theobald based on the provenance of type specimens in geographical areas where An. harrisoni is not known to occur. A lectotype is designated for An. vincenti Laveran, which thus becomes the senior name of the specific entity known as An. jeyporiensis James. Molecular data that diagnose An. harrisoni are reviewed and the holotype female is contrasted with the neotype series of An. minimus. Available information on the bionomics and distribution of the new species is included.
