DNA sequences were generated for eight specimens of the Anopheles maculipennis complex from Florina in NW Greece, and identified to species on the basis of comparison with ITS2 sequences for members of the complex already in GenBank. The sequences revealed the presence of An. maculipennis and An. messeae in Florina. Problems with sequence reliability and accessibility of sequences generated in earlier studies of Palaearctic members of the complex are discussed.
