Eleven polymorphic microsatellite loci were isolated and developed from the black fly, Simulium negativum, a member of the Simulium arcticum sibling species complex. The observed heterozygosity of the 11 loci ranged from 0.03 to 0.83. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 8 to 19. Significant linkage disequilibria were encountered only for the primer pairs BF7-1 with BF7-5 and BF6-32 with BF7-16. Presumably, these microsatellite loci can be used to study genetic structure within the entire S. arcticum complex.
