Lutzomyia longipalpis: an update on this sand fly vector [PDF]

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2021
Lutzomyia longipalpis is the most important vector of Leishmania infantum, the etiological agent of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in the New World. It is a permissive vector susceptible to infection with several Leishmania species. One of the advantages that favors the study of this sand fly is the possibility of colonization in the laboratory.

Adaptive female choice for middle-aged mates in a lekking sandfly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Most theoretical models of age-related mate choice predict that females should prefer older males because they have proven survival ability. An alternative view is that older males represent inferior mates because of negative genetic correlations between

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.
