Effectiveness of landmark- and semi-landmark-based geometric morphometric to identify four species of Culex mosquitoes in Thailand

摘要

Objective:This research aims to study the effectiveness of landmark- and semi-landmark-based geometric morphometric (LMSL) in the identification of four Culex vectors, namely, C. quinquefasciatus, C. visnui, C. sitiens, and C. whitmorei in Thailand and also compared the potential between LMSL and the landmark-based geometric morphometric method (LM).
