Abstract | Lutzomyia migonei is a vector of leishmaniasis with a wide distribution in South America, which could favour
population differentiation and speciation. Cryptic species of the Lutzomyia longipalpis complex, the widely distributed
sand fly vector of visceral leishmaniasis in Latin America, have previously been shown to display distinct
copulation songs. We found that Lu. migonei males also produce a song during copulation. This “lovesong” presents
short trains (6-8 pulses) with an inter-pulse interval around 26 ms and is potentially involved in cryptic female
choice and insemination success. | pt_BR |
