Molecular population genetics of the malaria vector Anopheles darlingi in Central and South America.
TL;DR: In South America, the departure from equilibrium was consistent with an expansion that occurred during the Pleistocene, and more ancestral and diverse haplotypes were found in Amazonian and southern Brazil populations, suggesting that Central American populations may have originated in South America.
The biogeography and population genetics of neotropical vector species
TL;DR: Phylogenetic and population genetic data support the Pliocene or Pleistocene divergences of the co-distributed hematophagous insect vectors, the sand fly Lutzomyia longipalpis s.l. and the mosquitoes Anopheles darlingi and A. albitarsis, and elements of both incursion and refugia hypotheses seem to fit, suggesting perhaps an interaction of factors determining their distribution patterns.
