Ecological setting of phlebotomine sand flies in the Republic of Kosovo
HeliyonSand flies (Diptera, Psychodidae) are the principal vectors of Leishmania spp., the causative agents of leishmaniasis, as well as phleboviruses. In the Balkans, the endemicity and spreading of sand fly-borne diseases are evident, particularly in the ...

Sand fly survival curve showing the continuous probability of sand fly survival. [PDF]
, 2018 Blue dashed-dotted line represents the sand fly survival after biting a dog treated with a systemic insecticide of 80% efficacy where only 20% of the sand flies survive after 2 days (black triangle). Black line is the baseline sand fly mortality reported

Transmission of cutaneous leishmaniasis by sand flies is enhanced by regurgitation of fPPG [PDF]
, 2004 Sand flies are the exclusive vectors of the protozoan parasite Leishmania, but the mechanism of transmission by fly bite has not been determined nor incorporated into experimental models of infection.

The role of phosphoglycans inLeishmania–sand fly interactions [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2000 Leishmaniapromastigotes synthesize an abundance of phosphoglycans, either attached to the cell surface through phosphatidylinositol anchors (lipophosphoglycan, LPG) or secreted as protein-containing glycoconjugates. These phosphoglycans are thought to promote the survival of the parasite within both its vertebrate and invertebrate hosts.

Sand fly catches inside and outside caves covered with sand fly-proof net. [PDF]
, 2013 A) Mean number nightly (±SE) of sand flies captured on sticky traps inside and outside caves. The cave openings were covered with sand fly-proof nets. Sand flies were collected daily and the traps were smeared with fresh oil.
