摘要
In a study on putative vectors of cutaneous leishmaniasis in Baturite, Ceard State, Brazil, six sandfly species were identified: Lutzomyia longipalpis, L. wellcomei, L. peresi, L. whitmani, L. shannoni and L. migonei. In general L. whitmani and L. migonei were the predominant species. They were collected in peridomiciliary areas and were attracted by man and equines. L. whitmani was the most anthropophilic species. Studies using animals as bait showed that blood-feeding occurs throughout the night. Previously L. whitmani had been found infected with a Leishmania species of the brazilicnsis complex and L. migonei was infected with peripylarian flagellates. In combination these findings suggest that they may be responsible for peridomestic transmission of cutaneous leishmaniasis.
