However, the absence of L. longipalpis in a region of autochthonous VL demonstrates the participation of other species in the transmission of the parasite. Studies conducted in La Banda, Argentina, and S\u00e3o Vicente F\u00e9rrer, Pernambuco State, Brazil, have correlated the absence of L. longipalpisand the presence of L. migonei with autochthonous cases of VL. In S\u00e3o Vicente F\u00e9rrer, Pernambuco, there was evidence for the natural infection of L. migonei with Leishmania infantum chagasi. Thus, the objective of this work was to assess the ecology of the sand flies L. longipalpis and L. migonei in Fortaleza, an endemic area for VL. Insect capture was conducted at 22 sampling points distributed across four regions of Fortaleza. In total, 32,403 sand flies were captured; of these, 18,166 (56%) were identified as L. longipalpis and 14,237 (44%) as L. migonei. There were significant density differences found between the vectors at each sampling site (indoors and outdoors) (p &lt;0.0001). These findings confirm that L. migonei and L. longipalpis are distributed throughout Fortaleza, where they have adapted to an indoor environment, and suggest that L. migonei may share the role as a vector with L. longipalpis in the transmission of VL in Fortaleza.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/s1984-29612014068","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,9,24]],"date-time":"2014-09-24T15:44:02Z","timestamp":1411573442000},"page":"320-327","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Ecology of Lutzomyia longipalpis and Lutzomyia migonei in an endemic area for visceral leishmaniasis"],"prefix":"10.1590","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Rafaella Albuquerque","family":"Silva","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Secretaria da Sa\u00fade do Estado do Cear\u00e1,  Brasil; Universidade Estadual do Cear\u00e1 \u2013 UECE,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fabricio Kassio Moura","family":"Santos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Secretaria da Sa\u00fade do Estado do Cear\u00e1,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lindemberg Caranha de","family":"Sousa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Secretaria da Sa\u00fade do Estado do Cear\u00e1,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elizabeth Ferreira","family":"Rangel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto Oswaldo Cruz,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Claudia Maria Leal","family":"Bevilaqua","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Estadual do Cear\u00e1 \u2013 UECE,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"530","reference":[{"issue":"(10)","key":"ref1","article-title":"Complexities of assessing the disease burden attributable to leishmaniasis","volume":"2","author":"Bern C","year":"2008","journal-title":"PLoS Negl Trop Dis"},{"key":"ref2","first-page":"816","article-title":"Minist\u00e9rio da Sa\u00fade.
