Pintomyia
Description
Pintomyia Costa Lima, 1932
Phlebotomus (Pintomyia) Costa Lima, 1932: 44. Type species: Phlebotomus fischeri Pinto, by original designation.
Phlebotomus species group triacanthus Fairchild, 1955: 194 (series fischeri).
Lutzomyia (Pintomyia) Costa Lima: Barretto, 1962: 92; Theodor, 1965: 192; Lewis et al., 1977: 325; Martins et al., 1978: 25; Young & Duncan, 1994: 269.
Pintomyia (as genus): Forattini, 1971a: 103; Forattini, 1973: 497; Artemiev, 1991: 73; Galati, 1995: 137; Galati, 2003: 37.
Diagnosis. Antennal flagellomere 1 as long as or longer than one-half the head length. Male: paramere simple, without preapical angular protuberance in ventral margin; gonocoxite with a basal-internal sclerotization; gonostylus with pre-apical setae; lateral lobe slightly slenderer than gonocoxite and with rounded apex. Female: tergum VIII usually with setae; spermathecal common duct as long that reach or surpass the middle of the furca’s trunk (Galati 2003).
Remarks. Galati (1995, 2003) recognized two subgenera, Pintomyia (Pintomyia) with species distributed primarily in South America and one species as far north as Panama in Central America, and Pintomyia (Pifanomyia) Ortiz & Scorza, a widely distributed and species-rich subgenus, with species known from Mexico to Argentina and representatives in the area surveyed in our study.
