Development of DNA barcode-based PCR methodology to distinguish two sympatric species viz. Phlebotomus argentipes and Phlebotomus colabaensis (Diptera: Psychodidae: Phlebotominae)

Phlebotomus argentipes and Phlebotomus colabaensis are the two sandfly species prevalent in the Western Ghats region of Kerala. P. argentipes had been incriminated as the vector of leishmaniasis in this region. The similar taxonomic features shared by these two species of sandflies had made it diffi...
