Sandflies associated with opossum nests are reported for the first time in the yards of residences located in the urban area of the municipality of Monte Mor, situated in the metropolitan region of Campinas, state of São Paulo, Brazil. Eleven specimens of Evandromyia cortelezzii and one of Evandromyia lenti were captured in two Didelphis albiventris nests. Ev. cortelezzii is considered a secondary vector species for the transmission of Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis and Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum in the Neotropics. This association may contribute to the introduction, establishment and maintenance of urban and periurban zoonotic transmission outbreaks of Leishmania and should therefore be investigated further.
在巴西圣保罗州坎皮纳斯大都会区蒙特莫尔市市区的居民住宅庭院中，首次报告了与负鼠巢穴相关的白蛉。在两个白腹袋熊巢穴中捕获了11只科氏伊蚊和1只慢伊蚊标本。科氏伊蚊被认为是新热带地区巴西利什曼原虫（维安尼亚利什曼原虫）和婴儿利什曼原虫（利什曼原虫）传播的次要媒介物种。这种关联可能有助于利什曼原虫在城市和城郊人畜共患病传播疫情的引入、建立和维持，因此应进一步调查。
