Phlebotomine Sand Fly Fauna and Leishmania Infection in the Vicinity of the Serra do Cipó National Park, a Natural Brazilian Heritage Site

Table 3

Lutzomyia species carrying Leishmania DNA captured in Jaboticatubas (MG, Brazil). Suspected or incriminated vectors of leishmaniases are marked with . Infecting Leishmania species were determined by nested PCR (LnPCR). Le.infantum and Le.braziliensis are etiological agents of the American visceral (AVL) and of the American cutaneous (ACL) leishmaniases, respectively. Study period: May 2012–April 2013.
