An entomological survey was conducted from July-December 2009 and September-December 2010, as part of the epidemiological monitoring of American cutaneous leishmaniasis (ACL) in the municipality of Lábrea, state of Amazonas (AM), Brazil. Sandflies were collected using CDC light traps installed in intra and peridomiciliary locations, as well as the border of forested areas around houses where autochthonous cases of ACL were recorded. A total of 510 sandflies belonging to 26 species were collected. The most abundant species was Nyssomyia antunesi (44.5%) followed by Evandromyia walkeri (10.6%) and Micropygomyia rorotaensis (9.8%). Here we also describe Evandromyia (Aldamyia) apurinan sp. nov. and report new records for Trichophoromyia flochi and Evandromyia sipani in AM and Brazil, respectively. Our results describe the composition of the sandfly fauna in the south of AM and suggest Ny. antunesi as the putative vector in the transmission of Leishmania in this area of the Amazon Region.
2009 年 7 月至 12 月和 2010 年 9 月至 12 月期间，作为巴西亚马孙州拉布腊市（Lábrea）美国皮肤利什曼病（ACL）流行病学监测的一部分，进行了昆虫学调查。使用在室内和家庭周围以及记录有 ACL 本地病例的房屋周围森林地区边界处安装的 CDC 诱捕器收集了沙蝇。共收集了 510 只属于 26 个种的沙蝇。最丰富的物种是 Nyssomyia antunesi（44.5%），其次是 Evandromyia walkeri（10.6%）和 Micropygomyia rorotaensis（9.8%）。在这里，我们还描述了 Evandromyia (Aldamyia) apurinan sp. nov.，并分别报告了 Trichophoromyia flochi 和 Evandromyia sipani 在 AM 和巴西的新记录。我们的结果描述了 AM 南部地区沙蝇区系的组成，并表明 Ny. antunesi 是该亚马逊地区传播利什曼原虫的可能媒介。
