Abstract: Haematophagous dipterans of the Nematocera and Brachycera suborders have been objects of study for a better understanding of the behavioral mechanisms used by insects to find their blood meal. This is usually elicited by chemical stimuli (semiochemicals) called kairomones that are often released by the vertebrate hosts (Gibson & Torr 1999).Among the more than 500 species of the subfamily Phlebotominae that are known in the Americas, over 400 belong to the genus Lutzomyia (Young & Duncan 1994, Galati 2003. Lutz… Show more

“…CO 2 is the main volatile kairomone released by vertebrates, and it is used by most hematophagous insects to Þnd their hosts (Eiras 2001), whereas octenol is a constituent of human odor (Bernier et al 2000). Andrade et al (2008) demonstrated higher Lutzomyia intermedia (Lutz & Neiva) attraction to octenol than synthetic human odor emitted by the BG-Mesh Lure (BGML-lactic acid, caporic acid, and ammonia) product. Brinson et al (1992) collected up to 188 adult Lu.…”

“…For sand flies, octenol has been shown to elicit a response in L. longipalpis in electrophysiological recordings [17] and attractive behaviours in a wind tunnel [10]. For Nyssomyia intermedia and N. neivai , octenol also elicited attractive responses in field studies [18,19]. In addition to its occurrence in mammals, octenol is also identified in many studies with volatile organic compounds (VOC) in different species of plants such as watermelon [20], flowers of lucerne [21] and mango [22].…”

“…Los estudios de las cairomonas como atrayentes han demostrado que el dióxido de carbono en trampas CDC con luz aumenta la captura de especies de flebótomos con comportamiento antropofílico y zoofílico (Andrade, et al 2008 (Andrade, et al 2008).…”
