The study was carried out in Corumbá county, State of Mato Grosso do Sul, Mid-West Brazil (18º59’S, 56º39’W). Sand fly captures were undertaken fortnightly with automatic light traps at 11 sites in forested environments and anthropic areas from April 2001 to July 2003. A total of only 41 specimens were captured. Thirty-one percent of the specimens were captured in forests and 68.3% in anthropic areas. The predominance of non-anthropophilic groups and the low density of N. whitmani , a known cutaneous leishmaniasis vector, does not seem to indicate any actual risk of the transmission of this disease in the study area. 2006 artículo científico 0034-8910 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=67240152021 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=672 Revista de Saúde Pública application/pdf Universidade de São Paulo Revista de Saúde Pública (Brasil) Num.2 Vol.40 |
