Comparison of sand fly trapping approaches for vector surveillance of < i > Leishmania < /i > and < i > Bartonella < /i > species in ecologically distinct, endemic regions of Peru

Conclusions/SignificanceUV, Blue LED, Mosquito Magnet and Shannon traps were more efficient than the BG-Sentinel, Green, and Red LED traps. This is the first report ofL.naiffi and of two genotypes ofBartonella spp. related toB.bacilliformis andCandidatus B. rondoniensis infecting sand fly species from the Amazon region in Peru.
