Abstract: Objective To make accurate identification of bedbug species and provide information for implementation of effective prevention and control measures. Methods In this study, morphological identification and DNA barcoding that distinguishes species based on the differential of genetic distances of mitochondrial Cytochrome C oxidase subunit Ⅰgene (COⅠ), were employed to identify the bedbugs collected from a school of Tai'an in Shandong province. Results Firstly, length of pronotum is two times of width, corresponding with the description of Cimex lectularius. Secondly, genetic distances of unidentified bedbug samples with C. lectularius were 0-1.3%, while 27.6%-28.0% with C. hemipterus. Conclusion Both morphological characters and genetic distances supported that these bedbug samples belong to C. lectularius. Bedbugs are social insects, which is usually spread by human activities. Implementation of long term effective prevention and control measures are crucial for reducing and avoiding the threat caused by bedbugs.

摘要: 目的 准确鉴定臭虫样品,为制定和实施有效预防措施提供参考依据。方法 联合利用形态学鉴定和基于线粒体细胞色素C氧化酶亚基Ⅰ(COⅠ)基因片段遗传距离的DNA条形码技术对山东省泰安市某学校发现的臭虫样品进行鉴定。结果 臭虫样品的前胸背板宽约为身长的1/2,与温带臭虫的特征相符。遗传距离分析显示,实验样品与温带臭虫的遗传距离为0~1.3%,与热带臭虫的遗传距离为27.6%~28.0%。结论 形态鉴定和DNA条形码分析结果均表明该实验样品为温带臭虫。臭虫通常是群居生活,且易于借助人类活动进行传播,长期、合理的防制是减少或避免臭虫危害的关键。
