New insights on the Feeding Site and Salivation by Lutzomyia longipalpis (Diptera: Psychodidae) During Blood Ingestion on Host Skin

Kelsilândia Aguiar Martins, Maurı́cio Roberto Viana Sant'Anna, Yevhen F. Suprunenko…·Marcos Horácio Pereira

This study uses intravital microscopy and fluorescent labeling to characterize the mechanics of mouthpart movements and salivation dynamics during blood feeding in Lutzomyia longipalpis, revealing a coordinated process involving tissue disruption, salivary secretion, and host vascular modulation.
