The susceptibility of fourth instar larvae of Lutzomyia flaviscutellata to
Leishmania mexicana amazonensis was investigated by feeding them infected
female sandflies or cultured promastigotes. Neither larvae nor adult
flies reared from the larvae became infected. It is suggested that during
evolution Leishmania has lost the ability, retained by the related genus
Leptomonas, to be transmitted in nature from one invertebrate host to
another.
