We report the presence of the competent vector for Leishmania spp, Migonemyia migonei, and the Evandromyia cortelezzii-sallesi complex south of its known distribution in the central temperate region of Argentina, in the province of Córdoba. The persistence of this phlebotomine in the northern border of the province, its association with a case of cutaneous leishmaniasis, and the new record in the outskirts of the city of Córdoba, the second most populated in the country, strengthens the need for regular vector surveillance and a case detection-sensitive health system in vulnerable regions, even in temperate climates.
我们报告在阿根廷中部温带地区科尔多瓦省已知分布以南发现了利什曼原虫属的传播媒介米氏米冈蚋以及科氏伊蚊-萨氏伊蚊复合体。这种白蛉在该省北部边境持续存在,它与一例皮肤利什曼病病例相关,以及在该国人口第二多的科尔多瓦市郊区的新记录,强化了在脆弱地区,即使是温带气候地区,也需要进行定期媒介监测和建立病例检测灵敏的卫生系统的必要性。
