“…A recent study shows that this particular species is found in abundance in the Northern region of MT (17) . This may be due to the presence of armadillos in the region, which are considered a reservoir for Leishmania (18) . We observed the presence of armadillo burrows in the APPs during the installation of traps, which could have contributed to the high frequency of this species in these areas.…”

Introduction: Understanding the diversity of sand flies is important for the epidemiology and control of leishmaniasis. This study aimed to understand the frequency, diversity, and seasonality of medically important sand flies in the municipality of Sinop, State of Mato Grosso, Brazil. Methods: The study was conducted in an urban area, including four ecotypes with different levels of urbanization. The sand flies were collected using light traps for three nights per month, from May 2014 to April 2015. Results: A total of 62,745 sand flies was collected, 52.34% of which were female. The frequency and diversity of sand flies was the highest in areas of permanent preservation (APPs) (96.85%), and was lower in more urbanized areas. Lutzomyia dasypodogeton was the most frequent species in the APPs. Lutzomyia antunesi was the most frequent in neighborhoods with forest fragments and neighborhoods around APPs, and L. aragaoi was the most frequent in completely urbanized neighborhoods. A higher frequency and diversity of sand flies was observed in the rainy season (87.92%) than in the dry season (12.08%). Eight medically important species were captured, and Lutzomyia antunesi, which is associated with American cutaneous leishmaniasis and visceral leishmaniasis, was observed in all ecotypes throughout the year. Conclusions: We observed a high frequency and diversity of sand flies in all urban areas, and some species collected were major vectors of leishmaniasis. These results support the need for further studies of the natural rates of infection of these insects and the circulation of the disease in hosts and vectors.

ABSTRACT. A check-list of new species, descriptions of other sex of previously described species, redescriptions. proposals of synonymy, and new status for species previously in synonymy or described as subspecies for american sand nics (Diptera, Psychodidae. Phlebotominae), for the period 1975-1993. and not included in the revision of MARTINS el al. (1978). arc presenled. KEY WORDS. Diplera. Psychodidae. Phlebolominae, check-list Since the publication of the revision on american sand flies (MARTINS et al. 1978), a lot of new species and other sex of previously described species, and proposals os synonymy, new states, and revalidation of species were published. A list of all these proposals would be useful to make easier the identification and the research of these insects and is presented here. The type localities and the sites where the types of new taxa were deposited are also cited.Several systems were proposed for Phlebotomine sand flies (ABONNENC & LEGER 1976a,b; LEWIS et al. 1977;MARTINS et al. 1978;READY et al. 1980READY et al. , 1981. The system of MARTINS et al. (1978) is widely accepted and it was used here. The species are distributed on Ihe subgenera and groups, mostly based on comments of the describers.
