Abstract | A study about the horizontal stratification of the sand fly fauna in two distinct ecosystems, caatinga area,
endemic for visceral leishmaniasis, and the tropical rain forest area, endemic for cutaneous leishmaniasis, was
performed in the state of Bahia, Brazil. Lutzomyia longipalpis was predominant in the caatinga, and following it
came the species L. capixaba and L. oswaldoi. In the tropical rain forest other species were found, such as L.
intermedia, L. migonei, L. whitmani, L. yuilli, L.fischeri, L. damascenoi, L. evandroi, L. monticola, and L. lenti. It was
found that the geographical limits of the vector species of visceral and cutaneous leishmaniasis are clearly defined
by the biological and phytogeographic characteristics. | pt_BR |
