The influx and efflux of military personnel in the possible endemic areas of leishmaniasis provided the impetus for research on the sandflies on Marambaia Island.
Sandflies were collected with light traps installed in the 3 ecotypes of 3 areas chosen for their particular landscape aspects.
In 2009, were collected 32,006 specimens of sandflies belonging to 13 species. The species that showed highest density were Nyssomyia intermedia and Migoneimyia migonei.
N. intermedia and M. migonei are the principal vectors of American tegumentary leishmaniasis (ATL) in Brazil; thus, extension studies related to the eco-epidemiology of these species of Marambaia Island are essential.
在利什曼病可能流行的地区,军人的流入和流出为研究马拉马亚岛的沙蝇提供了动力。
在为其特殊景观选择的 3 个区域的 3 种生态型中,使用灯光诱捕器收集沙蝇。
2009 年,共收集到 32006 只沙蝇标本,属于 13 个物种。密度最高的物种是 Nyssomyia intermedia 和 Migoneimyia migonei。
N. intermedia 和 M. migonei 是巴西皮肤利什曼病(ATL)的主要传播媒介;因此,对马拉马亚岛这些物种的生态流行病学进行扩展研究是必不可少的。
