Phlebotomine sandflies (Diptera: Psychodidae) of Ethiopia

Heliyon, 2023
Phlebotomine sandflies have a long history of association with humans, which makes them the only proven natural vectors of Leishmania species, the parasitic protozoans that cause leishmaniases in humans and animals.

Flavivirus RNA in Phlebotomine Sandflies [PDF]

Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases, 2010
Sandfly-transmitted phleboviruses, such as Toscana, sandfly fever Sicilian, and sandfly fever Naples, can cause human disease and circulate at high rates in Mediterranean countries. Previous studies have also established that viruses other than phleboviruses may be detected in and isolated from sand flies. The recent detection and isolation (in a large

Species structure of sand fly (Diptera: Psychodidae) fauna in the Brazilian western Amazon

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2009
We surveyed areas of the state of Rondônia in western Amazon for phlebotomine, which are potential vectors of leishmaniasis. A total of 5,998 specimens were captured, resulting in the identification of 48 species within the Lutzomyia (99.98%) and ...

Broader Geographical Distribution of Toscana Virus in the Mediterranean Region Suggests the Existence of Larger Varieties of Sand Fly Vectors

Microorganisms, 2020
Toscana virus (TOSV) is endemic in the Mediterranean basin, where it is transmitted by sand flies. TOSV can infect humans and cause febrile illness as well as neuroinvasive infections affecting the central and peripheral nervous systems. Although TOSV is

Increasing the digital repository of DNA barcoding sequences of sand flies (Psychodidae: Phlebotominae) [PDF]

, 2019
Sand f ly identification is complex because it depends on the expertise of the taxonomist. The females show subtle morphological differences and the occurrence of the species complexes are usual in this taxon.

Dispersal of phlebotomine sand flies (Diptera: Psychodidae) in a colombian focus of leishmania (Viannia) brasiliensis

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1992
Dispersal of five species of phlebotomine sand flies was studied in a coffee plantation near Arboledas, Colombia by mark-release-recapture studies using fluorescent powders. The estimated recapture rate for males of Lutzomyia shannoni marked and released

New molecular markers for phlebotomine sand flies [PDF]

International Journal for Parasitology, 2001
Using degenerate-primers PCR we isolated and sequenced fragments from the sand fly Lutzomyia longipalpis homologous to two behavioural genes in Drosophila, cacophony and period. In addition we identified a number of other gene fragments that show homology to genes previously cloned in Drosophila. A codon usage table for L.
