Description

Se. (Par.) baghdadis (Adler & Theodor, 1929)

The male can be identified thanks to its cibarium with angle-shaped notch and 14–16 teeth. The identification is easy thanks to the deep notch on the cibarium, also exhibiting about 30 teeth (Fig. 4).

Its distribution is limited to a zone ranging from Iraq to India). The record in Oman is the first in the Arabian Peninsula. We recorded it only in the Sharqiyah, not in the Dhofar. It has never been suspected of transmitting human Leishmania.
