Males and females of Lutzomyia anthophora Addis were collected by vacuum aspiration from woodrat, Neotoma albigula Hartley, and rock squirrel, Citellus variegatus Bailey, nests along Arivaca Creek in Pima County, Arizona. Additional flies were collected from the same location using CDC miniature light traps supplemented with CO2. These collections extend the recorded geographic distribution of this vector of Leishmania mexicana Biagi westward by approximately 724 km and place Lu. anthophora in a Sonoran desert habitat.
通过真空抽吸法,从亚利桑那州皮马县阿里瓦卡溪沿岸的白喉林鼠(Neotoma albigula Hartley)和花鼠(Citellus variegatus Bailey)巢穴中采集了安氏白蛉(Lutzomyia anthophora Addis)的雌雄个体。另外,使用补充了二氧化碳的疾控中心微型诱虫灯从同一地点采集了更多的白蛉。这些采集活动将墨西哥利什曼原虫(Leishmania mexicana Biagi)的这种传播媒介的已知地理分布向西扩展了约724公里,并将安氏白蛉置于索诺兰沙漠栖息地中。
