  • Nov 2022
Background: The recent geographic expansion of Leishmania infantum vectors in the triple border area of Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay has highlighted the need to know the seasonality, parasite infection rate, and the factors that contribute the dispersal and handling of this parasite. Methods: Entomological, quantitative longitudinal studies were...

Background Leishmaniasis, caused by Leishmania protozoan parasites transmitted by Phlebotomine sand flies, is a significant public health concern in the Mediterranean basin. Effective monitoring of Leishmania -infected sand flies requires standardized tools for comparing their distribution and infection prevalence. Consistent quantitative PCR (qPCR...

In 2017, the Brazilian State of Amapá registered the first occurrence of visceral leishmaniosis (VL) in 17 dogs in the outskirts of the capital, Macapá. Given the lack of knowledge on phlebotomines in that area, this study aimed to survey the fauna of these Diptera. Sampling was performed using CDC light traps placed at ten sampling sites. The spec...
