Abstract

As a result of our work, we set the goal of identifying the species composition and number of mosquitoes in foci of cutaneous leishmaniasis. To obtain the results, we caught mosquitoes using sticky sheets of paper, which were installed in residential, utility rooms and colonies of large gerbils 1 hour before sunset. As a result, they beat getting the following results.The main vectors of leishmaniasis - P. papatasi, P. sergenti are ubiquitous in the surveyed territories of Uzbekistan.Due to the dominant position of P. sergenti among other species of leishmaniasis vectors in Jizzakh regions, the occurrence of LAC may become more frequent in the coming years.
