The Phlebotomine sand fly fauna of Switzerland revisited

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 13-22, March 2024.
A new inventory of Phlebotomine sand flies of Switzerland has been created. Four species were recorded south to the Alps: Phlebotomus perniciosus, P. neglectus, P. mascittii and Sergentomyia minuta; and only P. mascittii north to the Alps. Phlebotomus neglectus is recorded for the first time in the country, most probably spreading from Northern Italy ...

Description of the fourth instar larva of Lutzomyia longipalpis, under scanning electron microscopy

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1996
The fourth instar larva of Lutzomyia (Lutzomyia) longipalpis (Phlebotomidae: Phlebotominae) was studied by scanning electron microscope. Based on three-dimensional observations, the fine structure and setal position (using of setal numeration) of the ...

Comparative Performance of Different Traps for Collection of Phlebotominae Sand Flies and Estimation of Biodiversity Indices in Three Endemic Leishmaniasis Foci in North Khorasan Province, Northeast of Iran

Journal of Arthropod-Borne Diseases, 2019
Background: Phlebotominae sand flies (Diptera: Psychodidae) are the vectors of leishmaniasis. There are different methods for sand fly collection with different performance.

Molecular validation of anthropophilic Phlebotominae sandflies (Diptera: Psychodidae) in Central Panama

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz
Six Phlebotominae sand fly species are incriminated as biological vectors of human pathogens in Panama, but molecular corroboration is still needed. We aim at confirming the identity of Phlebotominae species documented as anthropophilic in Panama.

Microbiota do trato digestivo de fêmeas de Lutzomyia longipalpis (Lutz & Neiva, 1912) (Diptera: Psychodidae) provenientes de colônia alimentadas com sangue e com sangue e sacarose Digestive tract microbiota in female Lutzomyia longipalpis (Lutz & Neiva, 1912) (Diptera: Psychodidae) feeding on blood meal and sacarose plus blood meal

Cadernos de Saúde Pública, 2001
Há poucos estudos sobre a microbiota do trato digestivo de flebotomíneos, considerando-se que o sangue não é o único alimento ingerido. Os flebotomíneos, tanto os machos como as fêmeas, alimentam-se de açúcares, provenientes de várias fontes ...

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.

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.

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 ...
