摘要

Morphological and enzymatic characterization of Phlebotomus perniciosus and Phlebotomus longicuspis in Morocco is reported. Twenty-nine localities in central and southern of Morocco were sampled and compared with three localities from the Rif (northern Morocco). For morphological study, sand flies were collected by sticky-paper traps. For males, the morphology of the copulatory valves (aedeagi) was examined and the number of coxite hairs was recorded. For isoenzyme analyses, specimens were collected in CDC light traps and immediately conserved at −80 °C.
