Low estimates of genetic differentiation (FST equal to 0.012, RST equal to 0.009) between two populations, 250km apart, suggested extensive gene flow across this distance. Despite extreme seasonal fluctuation in abundance with dry season minima in which mosquitoes virtually disappeared, allele frequencies remained stable over time in the village of Barkedji from August 1994 to December 1997 (including four rainy seasons and three dry seasons). The effective population size (Ne) was estimated to be 601 with 95% CI (281,1592), providing strong evidence against annual bottlenecks. Differences in measures of genetic diversity and linkage disequilibrium between the dry and the rainy seasons were not detected. These results suggest that despite extreme minima in local density, #An. arabiensis$ maintains large permanent deme spread out over large area. (Résumé d'auteur) %$ 052ANOPAL01
