LDR-FMA = ligase detection reaction–fluorescent microsphere assay; ID = identification; AP = An. punctulatus s.s.; AK = An. koliensis; AF = An. farauti s.s./An. farauti 1; AH = An. hinesorum/An. farauti 2; AF4 = An. farauti 4; AF s.l. = An .farauti s.l. (specific species morphologically unidentifiable).
