Abstract

Purpose: This paper presents the results of an entomological survey in an endemic focus of cutaneous leishmaniasis in Karaisali province of Adana in Turkey. Materials and Methods: There were two field works in two consecutive years (2013 and 2014), which 1088 sand fly specimens were captured using 136 light traps which were conducted in 11 villages of Karaisali located in southwest part of Adana.Results: Totally, six Phlebotomus species were described: Phlebotomus tobbi (41.54%), Phlebotomus neglectus/syriacus (9.74%), Phlebotomus papatasi (25.18%), Phlebotomus perfiliewi (3.49%), Sergentomyia dentata (18.38%) and Sergentomyia theodori (1.65%). The female/male rate was found to be 1.98. Phlebotomus tobbi, Phlebotomus papatasi, Phlebotomus neglectus/syriacus, Sergentomyia dentata and Sergentomyia theodori were dominant at 201-400m, 0-200m, 801-1000m, 401-600m and 601-800m respectively. Conclusion: Environmental and climatic factors were compared for the presence of sand flies species especially vectors of cutaneous leishmaniasis by univariate binary regression analysis in PASW. Sand fly density maps were generated based on the elevation they were caught by using ARCMAP 10.2. The data also revealed a relationship between presence of the probable vector sand flies and several environmental factors such as altitude, temperature, trap location and humidity in Karaisali.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, bir endemik bölge olan Adana'nın Karaisalı ilçesindeki kutanöz leishmaniasisin endemik odaklı entomolojik bir araştırmasının sonuçlarını sunmaktır.Gereç ve Yöntem: Adana'nın güneybatısında bulunan Karaisalı'nın 11 köyünde İki yıl üst üste iki alanda (2013 ve 2014), 136 ışık tuzağı kullanılarak 1088 kum sineği örneği toplanmış, saha ile ilgili çevresel veriler kaydedilmiştir. Ayrıca Örnek toplanan alanlardaki çevresel ve iklimsel faktörler, vektör kum sineklerinin varlığı ile PASW'da tek değişkenli ikili regresyon yöntemi kullanılarak karşılaştırma yapıldı. Kum sineklerinin dağılım haritaları, ARCMAP 10.2 kullanılarak yakalandıkları yükseklere bağlı olarak oluşturuldu.Bulgular: Toplanan örneklerin türleri; Phlebotomus tobbi % 41,54), Phlebotomus neglectus/syriacus (% 9,74), Phlebotomus papatasI % 25,18), Phlebotomus perfiliewi (% 3.49), Sergentomyia theodori (% 10,56) ve Sergentomyi adentata(% 9,46) olarak belirlenmiştir. Erkek/dişi oranı ise 1.89 olarak bulunmuştur. Phlebotomus.tobbi, Phlebotomus papatasi, Phlebotomus neglectus/syriacus, Sergentomyia ia dentata ve Sergentomyia theodori sırasıyla 201-400m, 0-200m, 801-1000m, 401-600m ve 601-800m yüksekliklerde baskın t ürler olarak belirlenmiştir.Sonuç: Veriler, muhtemel vektör kum sineklerinin varlığı ile Karaisalı'da yükseklik, sıcaklık, tuzak konumu ve nem gibi birkaç çevresel faktör arasında bir ilişki olduğunu ortaya koymuştur.
