| Résumé: | Leishmania parasites are transmitted by female phlebotomine sand flies that maintain the
enzootic cycle by circulating between sylvatic and domestic mammals. Humans are part of
this cycle as accidental hosts due to the vector's search for a source of blood. In Algeria,
Human Leishmaniases (HL) are endemic and represent a serious public health problem
because of their high annual incidence and their spread across the country. The aim of this
study is to identify sand fly species fauna (vectors of Leishmania), determine their infection
rate and identify their feeding preferences using molecular tools in a hypoendemic focus of
HL located in the province of Tipaza, northern Algeria. |
