Land cover classification of the city.
<p>Land cover vectorial obtained after a non-supervised classification of the NDVI raster image. Sand-fly sampling sites are represented by the âČ symbol. Areas of 50 m radius around the trap were used to calculate each type of cover proportion.</p
Parameters of the final model.
<p>Bootstrapped parameter estimates of the reduced final model, <i>Hurdle Shade/Macro</i>, bootstrap SE values, and 95% BC a confidence limits (CLs) for covariates predicting the presence (binomial model) and abundance (count model) of sandflies in the city of Santo Tomé. Bold covariates do not include 0 in their CLs.</p><p>Parameters of the final model.</p

Spatial distribution of the proportion of dogs and sandfly.
<p>Spatial distribution of the proportion of rK39+ dogs (a) and sandfly accumulated abundance (b). Circle size represents the arbitrarily categorized values of the proportion of rK39+ dogs, and abundance of <i>Lu</i>. <i>longipalpis</i>, respectively. In parenthesis, number of sampling sites are indicated.</p
Nucleotide divergence (<i>Da</i>) of the ND4 fragment measured as the number of net nucleotide substitutions for <i>Lu</i>. <i>longipalpis</i> haplogroups (see Results) using the Jukes and Cantor correction (below diagonal), and pairwise F<sub>ST</sub> comparisons between haplogroups (above diagonal).

Median-joining haplotype network of the <i>Lu</i>. <i>longipalpis</i> complex based on 261 nucleotides of the 3ÂŽ region of the cyt <i>b</i> gene.
<p>The circle size corresponds to the frequency of each haplotype. Intermediary haplotypes (missing intermediate haplotypes) are shown as red circles. Each line connecting haplotypes represents one mutational step, whereas numbers along the lines are total number of mutational steps between haplotypes. Colours indicate: orange = Clorinda; fuchsia = Corrientes city; turquoise = Puerto IguazĂș; grey = San Ignacio; pink = Santo Tome; purple = Tartagal; white with blue outline = Venezuela; green = Brazil.</p

Geographic distribution of <i>Lutzomyia longipalpis</i> complex specimens analyzed.

Spatial distribution of Argentinian <i>Lutzomyia longipalpis</i> genetic clusters inferred with Geneland.
<p>The highest membership values are in green (cluster 1) and blue (cluster 2) to a low PP (light green and light blue to white). Cluster 1: Tartagal (Tar), Santo TomĂ© (ST), and San Ignacio (SI); Cluster 2: Corrientes city (Corr), Clorinda (Clo) and Puerto IguazĂș (Ig).
