Water wells as a habitat of sand fly (Diptera: Psychodidae) vectors of visceral leishmaniasis in Greece.
1996
Chaniotis B. | Tselentis Y.
Overall, 37 of 79 water wells in 3 diverse geographic areas of Greece were found to harbor sand flies. The predominant species were Phlebotomus tobbi Adler, Theodor and Lourie and P. neglectus Tonnoir, species implicated in the transmission of Leishmania infantum Nicolle. Three additional species of Phlebotomus and 2 Sergentomyia spp. also were encountered. Wells appear to be resting and possibly breeding habitat for sand flies in Greece.
