7ª Contribuição ao estudo dos Flebotomus (Diptera: Psychodidae): descrição dos machos de 24 novas espécies

Abstract

<abstract language="eng">The A. and his co-workers captured in trips in the hinterland of Brazil more tham 17.000 flebotomi from which 35 are new ones, 11 discribed by, him in previous papers. The A. found these insects in groups of species living in different habitats, some ones of them not yet known: ondoors, or outdoors attracted by light or animal baits, without Shannon’s trap, in great or small caves, in the jungle in tree’s holes, holes in stones, holes in the soil habited by animals like armadillos, pacas (Aguti paca), wild rats, cururú toad (Bufo sp.). He observed the life history of 13 species: Flebotomus longipalpis Lutz& Neiva, 1912, Flebotomus intermedius Lutz & Neiva, 1912, Flebotomus avellari Costa Lima, 1932, Flebotomus aragãoi costa Lima, 1932, Flebotomus lutzianus Costa Lima, 1932, Flebotomus limai fonseca, 1935, Flebotomus rickardi Costa Lima, 1936, Flebotomus dasipodogeton Castro, 1939, Flebotomus oswaldoi n. sp., Flebotomus villelai n. sp., Flebotomus triacanthus n. sp., Flebotomus longispinus n. sp. And flebotomus travassosi n. sp. He describes the male of 24 n. sp., explaining the differential diagnose of group or nearly allied species. He inclued F. rooti n. sp. And F. hirsutus n. sp. In the sub-genus Shannonomyia. The first one, very allied to F. davisi Root is different from it, for presenting in the dorsal side of the abdomen bristles and not scales and to have the median claspers longer than his inner appendage and F. hirsutus quite different from the others which show 3 spines on distal segment of the upper clasper and for being the only one who presents the bristles of inner appendage of median clasper longer than it. Only the females of F. amazonensis Root and f. chagasi Costa Lima, are known and then it is possible that they belong to one of the species of this sub-genus from whom only the male have been described. F. choti Floch & Abonnenc, captured also at Pará, F. triacanthus n. sp. F. trispinosus n. sp. And F. equatorialis n. sp. Are very related and to this group the A. proposes the same of Pressatia as sub-genus in honor to whom demonstrated the medical importance of the flebotomi, considering F. triacanthus as the type specie of this sub-genus. In this sub-genus the V papal joint is very long, longer than III + IV, the antennae with geniculated spines without posterior outgrowth. At the genitalia the basal segment of the upper clasper presents two types of bristles ou the inner face, arranged in tuft; the distal segment with 3 spines and 2 thin bristles something difficult to see one of them situated near the apical spine and the other on the base of tubercle where the median spine is articulated; the median clasper is unarmed and compressed; the inferior clasper is also unarmed and longer than de basal segment of the upper clasper; the pompeta is longer than the basal segment of the upper clasper. Following it is presented a key for the determination of the males of the four species of this sub-genus. F. micropygus n. sp., F. minasensis n. sp. e F. dandrophylus n. sp., f. sh...

Phlebotomine sand flies (Diptera, Psychodidae) from Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil: species distribution and potential vectors of leishmaniases

Comparative study of the phlebotomine sand fly species (Diptera: Psychodidae: Phlebotominae) of the genera Nyssomyia Barretto, 1962, Bichromomyia Artemiev, 1991, and Migonemyia Galati, 1995, vectors of American cutaneous leishmaniasis in Brazil

“…Migonemyia migonei França, 1920 (Lutzomyiina) has been incriminated as a secondary L. braziliensis vector in many areas in the State of Ceará (where this sand fly was found naturally infected) and the State of Rio de Janeiro (Lainson & Shaw 2005;Brasil 2007;Rangel & Lainson 2009). Bichromomyia flaviscutellata Mangabeira, 1942, the main vector of Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis , is widely distributed geographically, highly attracted to wild rodents and has already been found naturally infected with L. (L.) amazonensis . These Leishmania cycles occur in primary and secondary forests, mostly in the Legal Amazon Region but also in the states of the northeastern (Bahia), midwestern (Goiás and Mato Grosso do Sul), southeastern (Minas Gerais, Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo), and southern (Paraná) regions of the country (Ashford 2000;Dorval et al 2006;Brasil 2007;Azeredo-Coutinho et al 2007;Rangel & Lainson 2009).…”

Les phlébotomes (Diptera : Psychodidae) de la Guyane Française. I - Description du mâle deLutzomyia (Trichopygomyia) depaquitin. sp.

“…Parmi les 14 espèces actuellement connues placées dans le sous-genre Trichopygomyia (tableau II) (ou le genre Trichopygomyia d'après Galati, 1995), plusieurs espèces possèdent des ornementations sur l'édéage. L. conviti (Ramirez-Perrez et al, 1976) présente une forte bosse ou déformation médio-distale, L. dasypodogeton (Castro, 1939 ;Mangabeira, 1942) et L. pinna (Feliciangelli, 1989) font apparaître une très importante projection dorsale postérieure. Actuellement nous avons opté pour conserver la classification ancienne proposée par Barretto (1962) plutôt que celle de Galati (1995), en attendant les prochains résultats que ne manqueront pas d'apporter les études en biologie moléculaire.…”
