We provide the currently known sand fly distribution and species diversity in Kosovo, including a COI barcode inventory and distribution maps. Phlebotomus neglectus and Ph. perfiliewi were identified to be the predominant species and environmental analyses depicted two geographical groups of sand flies in Kosovo, with notable differences between the ...

Laboratory colonization and mass rearing of phlebotomine sand flies (Diptera, Psychodidae)
Laboratory colonies of phlebotomine sand flies are necessary for experimental study of their biology, behaviour and mutual relations with disease agents and for testing new methods of vector control.

A case–control study on risk factors for visceral leishmaniasis in West Pokot County, Kenya
Abstract Background Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a severe parasitic disease transmitted by phlebotomine sandflies. VL is endemic in West Pokot County, Kenya, where effective strategies to interrupt transmission are impeded by the limited understanding of VL risk factors.

New genus of Psychodinae (Diptera, Psychodidae) from Argentina [PDF]
ABSTRACT Adults (male and female) and pupae of Chuspilepia saltenia gen. nov., sp. nov. were collected in tree holes in the Yungas rainforest, near San Ramón de la Nueva Orán city, Salta province, Argentina. It was not possible to place this new species in any known genera using the available keys and published descriptions, thus a new genus is ...

Optimizing eDNA Replication for Standardized Application in Lotic Systems in Aotearoa, New Zealand
The objective of this study was to optimize eDNA sample replication for the consistent characterization of freshwater fish and aquatic macroinvertebrate communities in flowing New Zealand waters, and ultimately, to inform the development of robust national monitoring standards. Results indicated that six replicates were needed to consistently detect 89.

Palaeoendemic invertebrates weakly reflect palaeoendemic plants across a 52‐year‐old fire boundary
Palaeoendemic invertebrates are associated with palaeoendemic vascular plants more than could be expected by chance in alpine/subalpine ecosystems on either side of a 52‐year‐old fire boundary. However, some palaeoendemic invertebrates are generalists in their associations with plant species.

Monitoring invertebrates in cereal fields in southern England over 50 years (1970–2019) showed an overall decline in abundance. For taxa at the order/family level, 47% declined in abundance, 16% increased and 37% showed no change. Most functional groups declined, expect for pollinators—whose abundance did not change overall.
