Occurrence of Lutzomyia anthophora (Diptera: Psychodidae) in Arizona

Journal of Medical Entomology, 1995
Males and females of Lutzomyia anthophora Addis were collected by vacuum aspiration from woodrat, Neotoma albigula Hartley, and rock squirrel, Citellus variegatus Bailey, nests along Arivaca Creek in Pima County, Arizona. Additional flies were collected from the same location using CDC miniature light traps supplemented with CO2.

The Lutzomyia Flaviscutellata Complex (Diptera: Psychodidae)

Journal of Medical Entomology, 1975
The Lutzomyia (Nyssomyia) flaviscutellata complex is a small but distinctive group of forest sand flies with a marked preference for biting small mammals, which may be related to the unusual structure of the mouthparts. In several areas females transmit parasites of the Leishmania mexicana complex among rodents, and in one they commonly transmit it ...

Classification of the Psychodini (Psychodidae: Diptera)

Annals of the Entomological Society of America, 1959
This tribe of the Psychodidae is denned and classified, with keys to and descriptions of six genera. The structure of the labellum is employed for the first time in classification, and other characters of the male and female genitalia, the wings, and the head are considered. It is postulated that the tribe arose from a Brunettia -like.

Notes on the Phlebotomus of Panama (Diptera, Psychodidae)

Annals of the Entomological Society of America, 1951
It has been believed until quite recently that all the bloodsucking Psychodidae belong to the genus Phlebotomus. This genus is considered by Theodor (1948) to form the subfamily Phlebotominae, although Eaton (1904) and some earlier authors included Nemopalpus, Sycorax and Trichomyia in the subfamily as well. The haematophagous habit and its concomitant

Journal of Medical Entomology, 1986
The immature stages of Phlebotomus langeroni are described from laboratory-reared specimens originating from Al Agamy, Alexandria, Egypt, where this species is the presumed vector of visceral leishmaniasis.

Contributions to Nearctic Stupkaiella Vaillant (Diptera: Psychodidae)

Zootaxa, 2010
The diagnosis of genus Stupkaiella Vaillant (Diptera: Psychodidae) is revised. Three new eastern Nearctic species, Stupkaiella capricornuata sp. nov., S. lasiostyla sp. nov., and S. robinsoni sp. nov., and the 4th or final instar larva of S. bipunctata Kincaid are described and a key to adult males of the eastern Nearctic species of Stupkaiella is ...

The Australian psychodidae (Diptera), Part 1

Australian Journal of Zoology, 1953
A new genus of Psychodidae, Atrichobrunettia, gen. nov., is erected to contain species showing affinities with Brunettia Annandale, but lacking hairs on the wing membrane. Two new species are described, A. alternata, sp. nov., and A. subalternata, sp. nov. Three new subgenera of the genus Telmatoscopus Eaton are created; Paratelmatoscopus, subgen. nov.,

Notes on Bruchomyia and Nemopalpus (Diptera, Psychodidae)

Annals of the Entomological Society of America, 1952
The collection of several species of Bruchomyia and Nemopalpus by my colleagues and myself during recent work with Phlebotomus has stimulated the present note, since the three genera are rather closely related and appear to frequent somewhat similar habitats.
