“…Due to this fact, diverse studies of other diseases were carried out in this municipality at the beginning of the XX century, and Lassance is the type locality for several species of sandflies (Costa Lima 1932). These include Psathyromyia aragaoi (Costa Lima 1932), Brumptomyia nitzulescui (Costa Lima 1932) and Brumptomyia pintoi (Costa Lima 1932), which were all absent in our samples, as well as Brumptomyia brumpti (Larrousse 1920), previously reported by Martins et al (1978) in Lassance.…”

The principal factor that drives the study of phlebotomine sandflies is their potential role as vectors of Leishmania spp. worldwide. Over 800 species have already been described and it has been estimated that at least 81 of these may be involved in Leishmania transmission (Killick-Kendrick 1990).Leishmaniases constitute an important public health problem and are endemic to most Brazilian states, in which the sandfly fauna is diverse and widely distributed. As suggested by Andrade Filho et al. (2001) the great adaptability of sandflies to man-made environments favours an increase in the number of cases of leishmaniasis due to the progressive deterioration of natural areas containing the original sandfly habitats.This study aimed to determine the diversity of the species of sandflies collected with light traps in Lassance and Corinto on the banks of the Velhas River, state of Minas Gerais. (Falcão 1981) that were hung at 18 h and reviewed at 6 h the following morning, on two consecutive days of each month. In the second year, due to operational problems, it was not possible to sample the same points as in the first year of sampling or use the same number of traps. In the first year, 16 traps were set, eight in each municipality, equally distributed on opposite banks of the Velhas River. The location of capture 1 was in the Corinto municipality and four traps were hung in the gallery forest on both banks, with an average distance between the points of collections of 370 m. The location of capture 2 was in the Lassance municipality, with one trap hung in a chicken coop, one in a goat pen and two traps hung in the gallery forest on the right bank of the river. On the left side all the ecotopes sampled were the same, but one trap was hung in a corral. The average distance between the points of collections was 240 m. In the second year, 12 traps were set, all in the Lassance municipality, in two distinct areas on opposite sides of the city with three traps on each bank of the river. One of the sites was the same location as collection 2, during the first year. The same ecotopes were sampled but just one trap was placed in the gallery forest for both river banks. The site of collection 3 was located in a northern position in the Lassanse municipality. The average distance between the collection points on the banks was 240 m, with three traps hung in the gallery forest of each bank. The distance between the locations of collection 1 and 2 was 6.9 km and between the sites of collection 2 and 3 it was 5.8 km.The collected insects were killed with ether fumes and stored in test tubes containing 70% alcohol.

“…In the second year, the average was 8.5 specimens/light trap/night. The species Psathyromyia brasiliensis (Costa Lima 1932) and Expapillata cerradincola (Galati, Nunes, Oshiro & Dorval 1995) were collected exclusively in the first and second years, respectively.…”

-The phlebotomine sand fly fauna of the State of Minas Gerais is presented based on an extensive review of the literature. The fauna, which is a rich one, is currently known to consist of at least 93 species included in 16 genera. The genus Evandromyia (16 spp.) is the most representative one, followed by Micropygomyia (13 spp.), Psathyromyia (12 spp.), Brumptomyia (11 spp.), Pintomyia (9 spp.), Lutzomyia (7 spp.), Psychodopygus (7 spp.), Martinsmyia (4 spp.), Nyssomyia (3 spp.), Deanemyia (2 spp.), Expapillata (2 spp.), Pressatia (2 spp.), and Sciopemyia (2 spp.). The genera Bichromomyia, Trichopygomyia, and Migonemyia are represented by only one species. An updated list of phlebotomine sand fly species occurring in Minas Gerais is provided. Finally, the importance of the species of public health concern is discussed.

“…The sand fly fauna is well known in Pernambuco and Mato Grosso (Dantas-Torres et al 2010; Missawa and Maciel, 2007). The Pintomyia species that occurs in Pernambuco is Pintomyia fisheri (Costa Lima, 1932) and three have been recorded in Mato Grosso, but no species of the monticola series. The absence of P. monticola in these climatically suitable areas could represent situations where the species has not yet dispersed or where the species has not become established due to competition with species previously present in that area.…”

The phlebotomine sand fly Pintomyia monticola (Costa Lima, 1932) is recorded for the first time in Brasília, central-west Brazil. A review of the geographical distribution of the species in South America is presented, and its distribution is extended. The potential geographical distribution of P. monticola is predicted based on ecological niche modeling. Ecological aspects of this species are discussed.
