Phlebotomine Sand Flies from São Gabriel da Cachoeira (State of Amazonas, Brazil) with a Description of Lutzomyia (Psychodopygus) douradoi n. sp. (Diptera: Psychodidae)
Thirty-five species of Lutzomyia and two species of Brumptomyia were identified among 795 phlebotomines taken in light-traps near the upper reaches of the middle Rio Negro. The subgenus Psychodopygus predominated in number of species (11) and relative abundance (74-81% in light trap samples from the...
