This study provides means for more accurate identification of Chironomus circumdatus species for
environmental and ecological management by Population of C. circumdatus (86 individuals) and water samples
were collected from three different sites of Chiang Mai Province, Thailand. Specimens of Einfeldia sp. were
used as an initial out group. The genetic relationship of C. circumdatus specimens from these sources was
determined by using DNA sequence analysis of partial mtDNA gene’s Cytochrome Oxidase Subunit I (COI).
Analysis of genetic distance on the basis of sequence difference for COI mitochondrial gene showed very little
genetic difference and the data from phylogenetic analysis revealed a very large genetic difference among all
populations of this species for the COI gene sequences. In addition, NJ tree was related to with physicochemical
parameters of the water samples.
Key words: Chironomus circumdatus, genetic distance, genetic diversity, , , ,
