Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is caused by Leishmania (L.) infantum chagasi in the Americas. In Brazil, it is transmitted by sandflies of the species Lutzomyia longipalpis and L. cruzi, and dogs are the main domestic reservoirs. The aim of this study was to analyze data relating to VL transmission in Jaciara, state of Mato Grosso, and discuss vector distribution, domestic reservoirs, and human cases that occurred between 2003 and 2012. The data for analysis were obtained from the Notifiable Diseases Information System (human), the State Health Department's Environmental Monitoring Agency (canine data) and the State Health Department's Entomology Laboratory (sandfly data). Over this period, Jaciara had 19 autochthonous human cases (12 males and seven females), with one death 2,273. Out of the 7,545 dogs tested by enzyme immunoassay and indirect immunofluorescence were positive. The sandflies collected comprised 5,015 individuals belonging to 24 species, with a predominance of L. whitmani followed by L. cruzi. The results showed that the parasite has frequent circulation and that the vector L. cruzi is widely distributed over all months, thus suggesting that transmission may occur at any time of the year.Keywords: Visceral leishmaniasis (VL), Lutzomyia cruzi, Lutzomyia whitmani, Canine Reservoir. ResumoA leishmaniose visceral (LV), causada nas Américas pelo protozoário Leishmania (L.) infantum chagasi, transmitida no Brasil por flebotomíneos das espécies Lutzomyia longipalpis e L. cruzi, tem os cães como principais reservatórios domésticos. O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar os dados relacionados à transmissão da LV, em Jaciara (MT), e discutir a respeito da distribuição do vetor, reservatório doméstico e os casos humanos ocorridos no período de 2003 a 2012. Os dados para análise foram obtidos do Sistema de Informações de Agravos de Notificação (humanos), da Vigilância Ambiental da Secretaria Estadual de Saúde (caninos) e do Laboratório de Entomologia da Secretaria Estadual de Saúde (flebotomíneos). Jaciara apresentou 19 casos autóctones, 12 do sexo masculino e sete do sexo feminino, com um óbito. Dos 7.545 cães testados por imunoensaio enzimático e reação de imunofluorescência indireta, 2.273 foram reagentes. Os flebotomíneos coletados totalizaram 5.015 indivíduos pertencentes a 24 espécies com predomínio de L. whitmani seguido por L. cruzi. Os resultados demonstraram circulação frequente do parasito e a ampla distribuição do vetor L. cruzi com frequência em todos os meses, sugerindo que a transmissão possa ocorrer em qualquer época do ano.Palavras-chave: Leishmaniose Visceral (LV), Lutzomyia cruzi, Lutzomyia whitmani, Reservatório Canino.

“…Light trap captures allowed the identification of 630 sandflies belonging to 28 species, from 11 genera, confirming the large diversity of the phlebotomine sandfly fauna at these three settlements in the municipality of Cáceres, as already reported from other places in the State of Mato Grosso [14][15][16] . According to Missawa and Maciel 17 and Amaral et al 18 , the variety of phlebotomine sandflies found in the State of Mato Grosso is as expected (107 species) considering the diversity of biomes characteristic of the region, such as savannah, Pantanal, transition forest, and the Amazon rainforest.…”

Introduction: Leishmaniasis is expanding across Brazil, including the State of Mato Grosso (MT). The aim of this study was to characterize the phlebotomine sandfly fauna at three rural settlements located in the municipality of Cáceres, MT, from August 2010 to July 2011. Methods: Sandfly captures were conducted at the forest border and in intra and peridomicile areas with automatic light traps, biweekly, from 5pm to 6am. Results: Of the 630 sandflies collected, 348 were female, and 282 were male. Captured specimens were distributed across 11 genera -Brumptomyia, Evandromyia, Expapillata, Lutzomyia, Martinsmyia, Micropygomyia, Nyssomyia, Pintomyia, Psathyromyia, Psychodopygus, species. Among these, six species had not been marked yet in MT (Brumptomyia avellari, Br. mangabeirai, Evandromyia aldafalcaoae, Micropygomyia echinatopharynx, Micropygomyia peresi, and Pa. campograndensis). Nyssomyia whitmani was the most abundant species across ecotopes at all settlements. Interestingly, Lutzomyia longipalpis and Lutzomyia cruzi were found in sympatry. Conclusions: The disorganized occupation of the environment that is happening at the rural settlements of Mata Comprida, Laranjeira I and II could provide opportunities for the domiciliation of wild populations of phlebotomine, including vectors of leishmaniasis. Therefore, more studies are needed to understand the epidemiology of the disease in these areas and its impact on the human population. Keywords: Mato Grosso. Phlebotomine fauna. Nyssomyia whitmani. Rural settlement. RESUMO Introdução:As leishmanioses encontram-se em expansão no Brasil, inclusive no Estado de Mato Grosso (MT). A presente pesquisa teve como objetivo estudar a fauna flebotomínica em três assentamentos rurais localizados no município de Cáceres, MT, entre agosto de 2010 e julho de 2011. Métodos: As coletas foram realizadas na margem da mata, no intra e peridomicílio com armadilhas automáticas luminosas, quinzenalmente, das 17h às 6h. Resultados: Foram coletados 630 exemplares, sendo 348 fêmeas e 282 machos. Os espécimes foram distribuídos em 11 gêneros: Brumptomyia, Evandromyia, Expapillata, Lutzomyia, Martinsmyia, Micropygomyia, Nyssomyia, Pintomyia, Psathyromyia, Psychodopygus e Sciopemyia e 28 espécies, sendo que dentre estas, seis não haviam sido assinaladas em MT (Brumptomyia avellari, Br. mangabeirai, Evandromyia aldafalcaoae, Micropygomyia echinatopharynx, Micropygomyia peresi e Pa. campograndensis). Ressalta-se o encontro de Nyssomyia whitmani, espécie mais abundante nos diferentes ecótopos em todos os assentamentos. Destaca-se também a presença das espécies Lutzomyia longipalpis e Lutzomyia cruzi em simpatria. Conclusões: A ocupação desordenada do ambiente, como vem ocorrendo nos assentamentos Mata Comprida, Laranjeira I e II, pode proporcionar a domiciliação de populações selváticas de flebotomíneos, dentre estes os vetores das leishmanioses, tornando-se necessários maiores estudos para entender a dinâmica de transmissão dessas morbidades nestes locais.

“…A good idea of the extent to which the fauna is particular to this area can be had from the fact that 87.5% of the fauna in the meridional cerrado has not yet been detected outside this region, even in the areas of mixed vegetation in the north, where the cerrado is mixed with open forest and caatinga and phlebotomines have been studied in greater depth (Rebêlo et al 1999b;Martin & Rebêlo 2006). Indeed, these species are more common in areas to the south of Maranhão, including the neighboring state of Tocantins (Andrade Filho et al 2001b), as well as Goiás, Distrito Federal (Carvalho et al 1989), Mato Grosso (Azevedo et al 2002, Missawa & Maciel 2007 and Mato Grosso do Sul (Galati et al 2006), all of which are in the cerrado. As the areas of meridional cerrado are less well studied than the forest areas, particularly in the very south of the state, a greater effort to capture phlebotomines may result in an increase in the number of known species in this phytogeographic region.…”

ABSTRACT. The fauna of phlebotomines (Diptera, Psychodidae) in different phytogeographic regions of the state of Maranhão, Brazil. Phlebotomine specimens were captured in domiciliary and forest environments in 47 municipalities between 1982 and 2005 with the aid of CDC light traps. A total of 91 species were found, of which four belonged to genus Brumptomyia and 87 to genus Lutzomyia, distributed among the following subgenera: Evandromyia (6), Lutzomyia (5), Micropygomyia (2), Nyssomyia (9), Pintomyia (2), Pressatia (3), Psathyromyia (6), Psychodopygus (14), Sciopemyia (4), Trichophoromyia (2), Viannamyia (2); species groups: Aragaoi (2), Baityi (1), Dreisbachi (1), Migonei (12), Oswaldoi (8), Pilosa (1), Saulensis (2), Verrucarum (4) and ungrouped (1). Species diversity was greatest in areas where there was dense evergreen seasonal forest (52 species), ombrophilous forest (31) and meridional cerrados (23) and lowest in areas with mixed forest (forest with babassu palms, cerrado and caatinga). The greatest similarity index was observed for restinga and open evergreen seasonal forest (J=0.48). Dense evergreen seasonal forest had greatest similarity with ombrophilous forest (J=0.38). The phlebotomine fauna was species rich and unevenly distributed in Maranhão, reflecting the phytogeographical complexity of the state, which is a result of the great variety of ecosystems and climate zones.KEYWORDS. Amazon; Babassu palm forests; Cerrado; Phlebotominae.RESUMO. Fauna de flebotomíneos (Diptera, Psychodidae) em municípios de diferentes fitorregiões, no estado do Maranhão, Brasil. Espécimes de flebotomíneos foram capturados nos anos de 1982 a 2005, em ambientes domiciliares e florestais de 47 municípios, com uso de armadilhas luminosas CDC. Foram encontradas 91 espécies, sendo quatro pertencentes ao gênero Brumptomyia e 87 ao gênero Lutzomyia, distribuídas nos seguintes subgêneros: Evandromyia (6), Lutzomyia (5), Micropygomyia (2), Nyssomyia (9), Pintomyia (2), Pressatia (3), Psathyromyia (6), Psychodopygus (14), Sciopemyia (4), Trychophoromyia (2), Viannamyia (2); grupo de espécies: Aragaoi (2), Baityi (1), Dreisbachi (1), Migonei (12), Oswaldoi (8), Pilosa (1), Saulensis (2), Verrucarum (4) e não agrupada (1). A diversidade de espécies foi maior nas áreas de floresta estacional perenifólia densa (52 espécies), floresta ombrófila (31) e cerrados meridionais (23), sendo menor nas áreas de matas mistas (floresta com babaçu, cerrado e caatinga). O maior índice de similaridade foi observado entre a restinga e a floresta estacional perenifólia aberta (J = 0,48). A floresta estacional perenifólia densa apresentou maior similaridade com a floresta ombrófila (J = 0,38). A fauna de flebotomíneos mostrou-se rica e distribuída de maneira heterogênea no Maranhão, concordando com a complexidade fitogeográfica do Estado, que se manifesta na riqueza de ecossistemas e de zonas climáticas.
