TY - NEWS TI - Nuevos registros de flebotomíneos (Diptera: Psychodidae), con el hallazgo de Lutzomyia longipalpis (Lutz & Neiva, 1912), en los alrededores de la Ciudad de Sincelejo, Colombia. AU - Vivero, Rafael José AU - Bejarano, Eduar Elías AU - Pérez Doria, Alveiro AU - Flórez, Fernando AU - Estrada, Luis Gregorio AU - Torres, Carolina AU - Muskus, Carlos AB - This is the first report of Lutzomyia longipalpis (Lutz & Neiva, 1912), L. shannoni (Dyar, 1929), L. micropyga (Mangabeira, 1942) and L. atroclavata (Knab, 1913) in the surroundings of an urban settlement in the Caribbean coast. Phlebotomine sandflies were collected by active search using suction devices and mouth aspirators in trees around the city of Sincelejo, the capital of the department of Sucre. Epidemiological importance derived from this finding is discussed due to the vectorial capacity of L. longipalpis, the natural vector of Leishmania infantum Nicolle, 1908 in America.
