Abstract

Background objectives: Sand flies are insects vector associated with terrestrial forest ecosystems; in the Ecuadorian Andes, they participate in the transmission of human cutaneous leishmaniasis. This geographical area is an opportunity to evaluate the role of sand flies as bioindicators od the degree of intervention of a tropical humid forest ecosystems (THF) associated with changes in the ecology of the local landscape.

Methods: CDC-light traps were used for collecting adults' sand flies in February 2020 in a humid tropical forest within Choco Biosphere Reserve. All species were identified using morphological keys. Analysis data about abundance, richness, species accumulation, diversity index, species composition communities, species sex proportion, spatial sand flies environmental, Renyi's Diversity Profile were performed to compare six spatial habitats in Mashpi locality, Ecuador.

Results: Sand flies were collected (n-1435); the main species are represented by Th. reburra Ny. trapidoi, Pa. aclydifera, Py. panamensis and Lu. hartmanni. Only Th. reburra is associated with not intervened forest, while the other 3 species are associated with intervened forest within Mashpi in the Choco Biosphere Reserve. The secondary forest has the major sandflies' richness, while the primary forest exhibits the major abundance.

Interpretation conclusion: The results indicated that Th. reburra is a sandfly restricted to the Andean Forest and is a bioindicator of the high environmental health quality of the forest, while Ny. trapidoi and Pa. aclydifera are bioindicators of environmental disturbances in the forest. Additionally, Ps. panamensis, Lu. hartmanni and Ny. trapidoi are bioindicators of human impact and the risk of leishmaniasis.

与乔科生物圈保护区空间景观变化相关的沙蝇和环境指标，联合国教科文组织。

背景目标：沙蝇是与陆地森林生态系统相关的昆虫媒介；在厄瓜多尔安第斯山脉，它们参与了人类皮肤利什曼病的传播。该地区是评估沙蝇作为生物指示器的作用的一个机会，以了解与当地景观生态变化相关的热带潮湿森林生态系统（THF）的干预程度：方法：2020 年 2 月，在乔科生物圈保护区内的热带潮湿森林中使用 CDC 灯光诱捕器收集成虫沙蝇。使用形态学钥匙对所有物种进行鉴定。对厄瓜多尔马什皮地区的六个空间栖息地的沙蝇丰度、丰富度、物种积累、多样性指数、物种组成群落、物种性别比例、空间沙蝇环境、Renyi多样性概况等数据进行了分析比较：结果：收集到的沙蝇（n-1435）；主要物种有 Th. reburra Ny. trapidoi、Pa. aclydifera、Py. panamensis 和 Lu.只有 Th. reburra 与非干预森林有关，而其他 3 个物种都与乔科生物圈保护区马什皮内的干预森林有关。次生林的沙蝇种类最丰富，而原始森林的沙蝇种类最丰富：结果表明，Th. reburra 是一种仅限于安第斯森林的沙蝇，是森林环境健康质量高的生物指标，而 Ny. trapidoi 和 Pa. aclydifera 则是森林环境干扰的生物指标。此外，Ps. panamensis、Lu. hartmanni 和 Ny. trapidoi 是人类影响和利什曼病风险的生物指标。
