The complexities of blood-feeding patterns in mosquitoes and sandflies and the burden of disease: A minireview. [PDF]

open access: yesVet Med Sci
Mosquitoes and phlebotomine sandflies are infectious disease vectors through hematophagy. The development of hematophagy likely provided an evolutionary advantage, offering a rich nutrient source for reproduction. These insects exhibit diverse blood‐feeding patterns, from invertebrates to various vertebrates. Multiple sensory cues to guide host‐seeking

Ecology of Lutzomyia longipalpis and Lutzomyia migonei in an endemic area for visceral leishmaniasis [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2014
The main vector for visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in Brazil is Lutzomyia longipalpis. However, the absence of L. longipalpis in a region of autochthonous VL demonstrates the participation of other species in the transmission of the parasite. Studies conducted in La Banda, Argentina, and São Vicente Férrer, Pernambuco State, Brazil, have correlated the ...

Species diversity and detection of pathogens in phlebotomine sand flies collected from forest management areas of Quintana Roo, Mexico

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 37, Issue 4, Page 845-858, December 2023., 2023
We compared sand fly communities of a forest reserve with those of forest management areas in Mexico to determine their species diversity (α and β) and determined peaks of activity. During the windy and dry season, the abundance of anthropophilic sand fly species is negatively correlated with the temperature and positively correlated with relative ...

Prevalence and incidence of canine visceral leishmaniasis and its clinical–immunological features in an endemic area of the Brazilian Amazon

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 6, Page 2463-2474, November 2023., 2023
The canine Leishmania (Leishmania) chagasi‐infection has a strong impact on the health of dogs by making a high number of dogs susceptible to visceral leishmaniasis before 2 years of age. The incidence of canine infection revealed that 6.6% of dogs/month acquire the infection before completing 1 year of life.

Lutzomyia longipalpis urbanisation and control [PDF]

open access: yesMemórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2015
Since the description of Lutzomyia longipalpis by Lutz and Neiva more than 100 years ago, much has been written in the scientific literature about this phlebotomine species. Soares and Turco (2003) and Lainson and Rangel (2005) have written extensive reviews focused on vector-host-parasite interactions and American visceral leishmaniasis ecology ...
