  abstract = {{A}nopheles sundaicus s.l., a major malaria vector taxon, occurs primarily along coastal areas and on islands in {S}outheast {A}sia. {O}ur previous studies using cytochrome oxidase 1, cytochrome-b, and internal transcribed spacer 2 markers discriminated three allopatric species: {A}n. sundaicus s.s. in northern {B}orneo, {A}n. epiroticus in {S}outheast {A}sia, and {A}n. sundaicus {E} on {S}umatra and {J}ava, {I}ndonesia. {M}orphological comparisons of three developmental stages did not reveal unique diagnostic characters that could reliably distinguish the three species. {T}herefore, we developed a multiplex polymerase chain reaction ({PCR}) assay based on two mitochondrial {DNA} markers to unambiguously identify them. {T}his {PCR} was tested on 374 specimens from 24 different geographical populations, expanding our knowledge of the distribution of these species.},
