Analysis was performed in MEGA v.6 with bootstrap support values based on 1000 replications shown above nodes. Other reference anopheline species are included for comparison. The scale-bar indicates the number of substitutions per site. Study samples with Plasmodium infection are indicated with red block circles, and those with blood meals from humans or goats are highlighted in green and grey, respectively. Taxon abbreviations denote samples analysed with haplotype sequences corresponding to GenBank accession nos: a ITS2 (540¨C538 nt; {"type":"entrez-nucleotide-range","attrs":{"text":"MK043038-MK043040","start_term":"MK043038","end_term":"MK043040","start_term_id":"1489305218","end_term_id":"1489305220"}}MK043038-MK043040). b cox1 (528¨C646 nt; {"type":"entrez-nucleotide-range","attrs":{"text":"MK047664-MK047672","start_term":"MK047664","end_term":"MK047672","start_term_id":"1597417353","end_term_id":"1597417369"}}MK047664-MK047672 %K Anopheles funestus group %K Malaria transmission %K Entomological surveillance %K Molecular approaches %K Dry ecology %K Kenya %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6369554/
