Micropygomyia (Coquillettimyia) chiapanensis ( Dampf, 1947) View in CoL

Phlebotomus chiapanensis Dampf, 1947: 180 View in CoL (♀). Type locality: Mexico, Chiapas, Chiapa de Corzo. Additonal references: Fairchild & Hertig, 1948b: 456 (♂, ♀).

Lutzomyia (Micropygomyia) chiapanensis (Dampf) View in CoL : Young & Duncan, 1994: 637 (keys, references, distribution); Ibáñez- Bernal, 2003: 120 (diagnosis, references).

Micropygomyia (Coquillettimyia) chiapanensis (Dampf) View in CoL : Galati, 2003: 33, 82 (list, keys); Ibáñez-Bernal et al., 2011: 32 (Veracruz records, distribution).

Diagnosis. Male: ejaculatory filaments with simple tips; gonocoxite with a basal tuft of 5 to 7 setae and a median non compact group of no more than 10 setae. Female: cibarium with 16 to 28 horizontal teeth in comb-like row, no lateral teeth; spermathecae nearly spherical with annulated basal portion, spermathecal ducts lightly striated, the individual ducts similar in width throughout ( Young & Duncan 1994, Galati 2003).

Material examined. MEXICO: CHIAPAS: Loma Bonita, 16-ii-2010, 1 ♀; 22-iv-2010, 1 ♀. Collected with CDC light traps.

Distribution. MEXICO (Chiapas, Guerrero, Michoacán, Nayarit, Oaxaca, Sonora, Veracruz and Yucatán) (Ibáñez-Bernal et al. 2011), EL SALVADOR, HONDURAS, NICARAGUA, COSTA RICA, and PANAMA (Young & Duncan 1994, Galati 2003).

Remarks. This small species apparently has a wide distribution in Mesoamerica. In the present study it was not abundant as compared with other species or geographical areas. Females of this species apparently feed on the blood of lizards.
