“…Phlebotomine sandflies, predictably, are not known to transmit any mammalian disease in the Australian Region. Leishmaniasis appears to be unknown apart from imported cases (American Geographical Society 1954;Andrews 1976: 60,65;Charters and Staer 1970;Cook 1941;Donald 1958;Jones 1979;McMillan 1974;Sanderson 1961;World Health Organization 1968: 111). Sandflies may conceivably act as bridgingvectors between wild animals and cattle (Standfast and Dyce 1972: 226), and a virus has been isolated from sandflies (Doherty 1972: 172, 174;Doherty et al 1973: 537-538, 541, 543).…”

A key is given to the 8 recorded species of Australophlebotomus (6 from Australia, 2 from Papua New Guinea). Both sexes of 3 species are known. The taxonomy of 6 species is brought up to date, 2 new ones (Phlebotomus acuminatus and P. mackerrasi) are described, a taxonomic problem involving the 2 common Australian species is resolved and the known distribution of species is shown. The affinities, status, diagnosis, origin, food preferences and trophic morphology of Ausiralophlebotomus are discussed.
