Sampling strategies for phlebotomine sand flies (Diptera: Psychodidae) in Europe [PDF]
AbstractThe distribution of phlebotomine sand flies is widely reported to be changing in Europe. This can be attributed to either the discovery of sand flies in areas where they were previously overlooked (generally following an outbreak of leishmaniasis or other sand fly-related disease) or to true expansion of their range as a result of climatic or ...

Notes on Phlebotomine sand flies of Michoacán, Mexico, with a key
Four species of phlebotomine sand flies were collected in the Municipality of Sahuayo, on the High Plateau of Michoacán, representing the first records of phlebotomine sand flies in this region. Two of them, Micropygomyia (Coquillettimyia) vindicator (Dampf) and Psathyromyia (Forattiniella) texana (Dampf), are new records for Michoacán.

Habitat Preferences of Phlebotomine Sand Flies (Diptera: Psychodidae) in Southwestern Morocco
Data from a 4-yr study of phlebotomine sand flies in 44 stations in southwestern Morocco are presented. Correspondence analysis is used to describe the habitat preferences of nine sand fly species on a meso-scale (station) and a micro-scale (biotope). This work, based on highly diversified data from various stations, comprising several biotopes sampled
