Identification and molecular characterization of Wolbachia strains and natural infection for Leishmania sp. in neotropical Phlebotominae (Diptera: Psychodidae) species, Leishmaniasis vectors.

Acta Tropica, 2022
Recently, Wolbachia infection has been described in leishmaniasis vector sandflies. This endosymbiont bacterium is present in 60% of insects, and has been suggested as a mechanism of biological control of vector insects, because it causes a series of ...

Cave-dwelling phlebotomine sand flies (Diptera: Psychodidae: Phlebotominae) in Thailand: population composition and pathogen detection of Bartonella and Trypanosoma

Parasites & Vectors
Background Leishmaniasis is an emerging vector-borne disease that occurs in Thailand. Although Leishmania (Mundinia) parasites, the causative agents of the disease have been identified, the vectors of the disease remain unidentified. In the present study,

On the Classification of American Phlebotominae

Journal of Medical Entomology, 1965
The classification of American Phlebotominae is particularly difficult as many species are known in one sex only, because of the large number of species and their great morphological variation, without, however, the formation of clearly defined groups. The relative importance of the morphological characters was studied.

Automated detection and tracking of phlebotominaes

2016 2nd International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Signal and Image Processing (ATSIP), 2016
This paper presents a method for detecting and tracking phlebotominaes that are vectors for many important diseases. A method based on the Gaussian mixture model is used for Foreground/Background classification. Then, the mathematical morphology operations are used to refine the classification results and eliminate areas that do not represent ...

The Sand-Files of the Gambia (Diptera: Phlebotominae)

Journal of Medical Entomology, 1965
Thirteen species of Phlebotominae were found in the Gambia, one of Phlebotomus and 12 of Sergentomyia . Most are typical of Savanna but two species from the coast are known from wetter areas elsewhere in West Africa. Notes are given on prevalence in relation to vegetation, resting sites and season.

The Sandflies (Phlebotominae) of Iraq

Bulletin of Entomological Research, 1953
An account is given of a survey of the sandfly fauna of Iraq made in 1949 and 1950. Two new species, one of which has been previously misidentified, and two new varieties are described, and brief notes are given on all the 12 species of Phlebotomus and Sergentomyia taken in the survey. A description is given of a male of P.

Sandflies (Diptera: Phlebotominae) and leishmaniasis in Kuwait

Bulletin of Entomological Research, 1983
AbstractA survey of the phlebotomine sandflies in and around Kuwait City (Kuwait) was made during May and June 1981. Three species were found associated with human habitations: Phlebotomus papatasi (Scop.), P. alexandri Sinton and Sergentomyia antennata (Newst.). Sandflies were more abundant in newly developed areas on the periphery of the city than in

Sugar meals in Phlebotominae and Simuliidae (Diptera)

Proceedings of the Royal Entomological Society of London. Series A, General Entomology, 1966
SYNOPSIS The significance of sugar‐feeding by blood‐sucking Nematocera is briefly discussed, with special reference to Phlebotominae and Simuliidae. An account is given of the sugar content of the crops of some of these flies, as shown by chromatography.
