Morfología de los estadios inmaduros de Lutzomyia walkeri (Newstead, 1914) (Diptera: psychodidae)
Abstract
The immature stages of Lu. walkeri (Newstead, 1914) (Diptera: Psychodidae) are described. The egg and the larva are similar to those ofLu. bahiensis, Lu. lenti and Lu. migonei; the pupa shows greatest resemblance to that of Lu. lenti, particularly in the uneven length of setae pair 10. The general aspect of the larva corresponds to a species which, according to Hanson, burrows in its food medium in laboratory cultures and probably in the soil in its natural habitat. Unfortunately, the immature stages have not yet been found in nature.
