In Central Europe, Phlebotomus mascittii is the predominant species, but largely understudied. To better understand factors driving its current distribution, we infer patterns of genetic diversity by testing for signals of population expansion based on two mitochondrial genes and model current and past climate and habitat suitability for seven post-glacial maximum periods, taking 19 climatic variables into account. Consequently, we elucidate their connections by environmental-geographical network analysis. Most analyzed populations share a main haplotype tracing back to a single glacial maximum refuge area on the Mediterranean coasts of South France, which is supported by network analysis. The rapid range expansion of Ph. mascittii likely started in the early mid-Holocene epoch until today and its spread possibly followed two routes. The first one was through northern France to Germany and then Belgium, and the second across the Ligurian coast through present-day Slovenia to Austria, toward the northern Balkans. Here we present a combined approach to reveal glacial refugia and post-glacial spread of Ph. mascittii and observed discrepancies between the modelled and the current known distribution might reveal yet overlooked populations and potential further spread. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 5.2 2023 BIOLOGY 13 / 109 = 0.119 2023 Q1 T1 2.09 2023 Agricultural and Biological Sciences (miscellaneous) 2023 Q1 Medicine (miscellaneous) 2023 Q1 Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (miscellaneous) 2023 Q1 8.6 2023 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Dvorák, Vít Koblmüller, Stephan Prudhomme, Jorian Ivovic, Vladimir Hoxha, Ina Oerther, Sandra Heitmann, Anna Lühken, Renke Bañuls, Anne-Laure Sereno, Denis Michelutti, Alice Toniolo, Federica Alarcón-Elbal, Pedro M.
