How do you think the London population of C. molestus first arose?
A. Some individuals of C. molestus from elsewhere in Europe were accidently carried/migrated
to London.
B. Some individuals of C. pipiens from aboveground London moved into the underground tunnel
system, where nature selected for traits beneficial for the underground environment.
C. Both A and B are possible.
D. Neither A or B are possible.
Defend your answer
Which of these do you think best represents the divergence of C. molestus from C. pipiens, as
described by Byrne and Nichols?
A. Sympatric
B. Allopatric
C. Peripatric
D. Parapatric
Defend your answer
If C. molestus was a founder population that derived from the surface C. pipiens population, you
would expect _____ genetic diversity in the C. molestus population as compared to C. pipiens?
A. more
B. less
C. the same
Defend your answer.
Solution
1. London population of C.molestus first arose- optiob C, both a and b are possible.
This mosquito first discovered in Egypt has been found in underground system around the world.
But the recent evidence suggests it is a southern mosquito variety related to C. pipiens that has
adapted to the warm underground spaces of northern cities.
2. B allopatric-as they evolved by physical barrier and the new form are not interbreed with older
forms.
3. A C. molestus was founder population and more genetic diversity in it as they are widely
separated population by minor genetic difference suggest the underground form develo recently
as C. molestus is more active through all 12 months of year.
