As part of our ongoing program, searching for the vectors and reservoirs of Leishmaniaparasites, we conducted a survey of the sandfly fauna along the BR-319 (Manaus-Porto Velho) highway. Fifty seven species of sandflies were captured; 44 in the genus Lutzomyia and 13 Psychodopygus.Of the collecting methods utilized, CDC traps set 6m above the forest floor proved to be the most effective, and the most frequently captured species were L. antunesi, P. chagasiand P. ayrozai.We also present the geographical distribution of the different species collected.
