This is the first English-language book dedicated to Brazilian sand
flies and their medical importance. No other country has so many
species of these haematophagous insects as Brazil and their
diversity has reached an astonishing level. The book contains
comprehensive chapters, written by Brazilian experts on their
regional distribution, their ecology and their importance as
vectors of pathogens and parasites. Methods for sampling,
processing and preserving phlebotomines are reviewed as are
perspectives on surveillance and leishmaniasis vector control. A
novel classification is presented whose aim is to help
investigators identify the species that they are working with more
efficiently.
