Resumo: Experiments were undertaken to determine the relative attractiveness of humans, dogs and chickens to Lutzomyia longipalpis, the principal vector of Leishmania chagasi causing American visceral leishmaniasis. Field experiments in two villages on Marajó Island, Pará State, Brazil, showed that one boy attracted significantly more flies than one dog or chicken, and slightly fewer flies than a group of six chickens. Experiments with laboratory-bred female flies showed that a significantly greater number of flies engorged on a single human than on either a single dog or chicken, and man-biting catches demonstrated the willingness of flies to bite in the field. It appears that Lu.longipalpis has catholic feeding habits, the attractiveness of different hosts being largely a function of their relative sizes. These results are discussed with reference to the epidemiology of visceral leishmaniasis in Brazil.
