| description | A faunistic study was carried out to gain insight into the distribution, species richness and abundance of sandflies in Quintana Roo, Mexico. There was a great intra- and interregional variability inmean species richness and abundance in Quintana Roo. The northern region appeared to have the highest species richness and abundance, followed by the central and southern regions, which exhibited an equal richness between them. Also, the central region showed the lowest sandfly abundance. Each region showed a rather distinctive dominant species composition, although two species, Lutzomyia shannoni and Lutzomyia cruciata, were among the most abundant in all three regions. In fact, some of the most abundant speciesare suspected vectors of leishmaniasis at the Yucatan Peninsula. Environmental factors prevailing in the state are thought to be the main factors mediating the differences in sandfly abundances in the different regions of Quintana Roo. |

There was a great intra- and interregional variability inmean species richness and abundance in Quintana Roo. The northern region appeared to have the highest species richness and abundance, followed by the central and southern regions, which exhibited an equal richness between them. Also, the central region showed the lowest sandfly abundance. Each region showed a rather distinctive dominant species composition, although two species, Lutzomyia shannoni and Lutzomyia cruciata, were among the most abundant in all three regions. In fact, some of the most abundant speciesare suspected vectors of leishmaniasis at the Yucatan Peninsula. Environmental factors prevailing in the state are thought to be the main factors mediating the differences in sandfly abundances in the different regions of Quintana Roo. Se llevó a cabo un estudio faunístico en el estado de Quintana Roo para conocer la distribución, riqueza y abundancia de los flebotominos. Se observó una gran variabilidad del promedio deespecies y abundancia dentro y entre tres diferentes zonas (sur, centro y norte) en el estado. La mayor abundancia y riqueza se registró en la zona norte, en la zona centro y sur se capturaron igual número de especies, y la zona centro tuvo la menor abundancia. En cada zona fueron diferentes las especies dominantes, aunque, Lutzomyia shannoni y Lutzomyia cruciata se registraron dentro de las más dominantes distribuidas en las tres zonas. Entre las especies dominantes que se presentan en el estado se encuentran aquellas que son incriminadas como vectores de leishmaniasis en la Península de Yucatán. Los factores ambientales que se presentan en el estado son reflejados en las abundancias encontradas en las diferenteszonas de Quintana Roo.
