Abstract | Lutzomyia longipalpis (Lutz & Neiva, 1912) (Diptera: Psychodidae: Phlebotominae) is a vector of
visceral leishmaniasis in the Americas and it might represent a complex of sibling species. Reproductive
isolation between closely related species often involves differences in courtship behaviour. cacophony
(cac) and period (per) are two Drosophila genes that control features of the “lovesong” males produce
during courtship that has been implicated in the sexual isolation between closely related species. We are
using gene fragments from L. longipalpis’ homologues of these two genes to study the speciation process
in this putative species complex. | pt_BR |
