ABSTRACT

The hematophagous preferences of insects determine the association between parasite, host and vector, being an indispensable data to know the species that maintains the infection in wild or domestic animals and which transfers it to humans, so that parasitemia becomes a zoonosis. Knowing the blood food sources of vector species is a requirement to assess the role that each of them plays in human infection. In Mexico, there are 50 species of Phlebotominae and although females from the entire subfamily are mentioned as hematophages of amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals, their hematophagous habits and their preferences for hosts are varied. A literature descriptive review of the hematophagous preferences of the species registered in Mexico is made, a prerequisite to establish which phlebotomine species have special importance in the transmission of Leishmania to humans and which may maintain enzootic infection in other vertebrates, while the study of hematophagous preferences for those in which their food habits are still unknown is encouraged.
