Exochorionic pattern of ten sand fly species (Diptera: Psychodidae: Phlebotominae) from Mexico

Journal of Basic and Applied Zoology
Background Phlebotomine sand flies are of biological importance because of their role as vectors of several pathogens. Morphological identification faces challenges to separate related species; therefore, the study of immature stages, as the egg and its ...

Significance of eggshell morphology as an additional tool to distinguish species of sand flies (Diptera: Psychodidae: Phlebotominae)

PLoS ONE, 2022
Morphological characteristics of eggshells are important in sand fly ootaxonomy. In this study, eggshells from Phlebotomus stantoni Newstead, Sergentomyia khawi (Raynal), and Grassomyia indica (Theodor) sand flies collected in Chiang Mai province ...

Susceptibility of phlebotomine sandflies (Diptera: Psychodidae) collected in the field, to alpha-cypermethrin in four municipalities endemic to leishmaniasis

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo
Although the chemical control against leishmaniasis began in 1953 in Brazil, little information is available on how this strategy has affected populations of phlebotomine sandflies in the field.

Early detection of Sergentomyia minuta (Diptera: Phlebotominae) in Madrid, Spain: an early warning for the temporal dynamic modification of leishmaniosis’ epidemiology?

International Journal of Tropical Insect Science
Global changes, such as climate change, represent a worldwide risk for the management of leishmaniosis. The transmission profile can be modified by several mechanisms, mainly through the distribution and ecology of the vectors, causing direct effects on ...

Description of a new genus and new species of New World Phlebotominae (Diptera, Psychodidae)

Revista Brasileira de Entomologia, 2003
A new genus and new species of Phlebotominae, Edentomyia piauiensis (Diptera, Psychodidae) from a cave in Piauí State, Brazil, are described. This new genus belongs to Phlebotomini, but its inclusion in any subdivision of this tribe depends on further ...

Phylogeography of the Lutzomyia gomezi (Diptera: Phlebotominae) on the Panama Isthmus [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2014
Lutzomyia gomezi (Nitzulescu, 1931) is one of the main Leishmania (Vianna) panamensis vectors in Panama, and despite its medical significance, there are no population genetic studies regarding this species. In this study, we used the sequences of the mitochondrial gene cytochrome b/start of NADH1 and the nuclear elongation gene α-1 in order to analyze ...

Emergence of sandflies (Phlebotominae) in Austria, a Central European country [PDF]

Parasitology Research, 2013
Abstract The possible existence of autochthonous sandfly populations in Central Europe north of the Alps has long been excluded. However, in the past years, sandflies have been documented in Germany, Belgium, and recently, also in Austria, close to the Slovenian border.

Aspectos ecológicos da leishmaniose tegumentar americana: 5. Estratificação da atividade espacial e estacional de Phlebotominae (Diptera, Psychodidae) em áreas de cultura agrícola da região do Vale do Ribeira, Estado de São Paulo, Brasil Epidemiological aspects of the American cutaneous leishmaniasis: 5. Stratification of the spatial and seasonal activity of the Phelebotominae (Diptera, Psychodidae) in agricultural cultivated area of Ribeira Valley, São Paulo State, Brazil

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1987
A composição e estratificação da atividade Phlebotominae desenvolvida numa mata residual e área aberta com intensa atividade agrícola, tomam parte desta investigação. O emprego da armadilha CDC tornou acessivo determinar a fauna local.
