La femelle de Phlebotomus (Anaphlebotomus) fertei Depaquit, Léger & Robert, 2002 est décrite de Madagascar. La morphologie de sa spermathèque est proche de celle observée chez P. (Anaphlebotomus) berentiensis (Léger & Rodhain, 1978) dont le mâle est décrit ici pour la première fois et la femelle redécrite. Les appariements mâles-femelles ont été effectués sur la base de caractères morphologiques et moléculaires (ITS2 de IADN ribosomal et gène ND4 de l'ADN mitochondrial). La révision du statut de P. berentiensis et son inclusion dans le sous-genre Anaphlebotomus Theodor, 1948 sont proposées par les auteurs sur la base des caractères des mâles retenus par Theodor dans la définition du sous-genre Anaphlebotomus (style porteur de quatre épines, absence de lobe basal du coxite et paramère bilobé ou trilobé). Le manque d'homogénéité des caractères observés chez les femelles pose le problème de l'unicité du sous-genre.
Abstract
The female of Phlebotomus (Anaphlebotomus) fertei Depaquit, Léger & Robert, 2002 is described from Madagascar. The spermathecae have separated ducts, a body with an enlarged-sclerified dilatation and a derivated large bladder with thin walls and long head. P. fertei female has the following characters: long antennal segments, pharyngeal armature with small teeth and cibarium with 15 to 30 denticles, and very long legs. Its remarkable spermatheca is closely related to that of P. berentiensis. The status of P. (Anaphlebotomus) berentiensis (Léger & Rodhain, 1978) is revised into this paper. The female is redescribed and the male is described for the first time. The latter has an unusual antennal formula (2/III-XII), a cibarium with four teeth and about 30 denticles, no tuft of setae on the coxite, four spines on the style, including a very long proximal one. Males and females were linked to each other based on morphological and molecular charactericstics (second internal transcribed spacer of the ribosomal DNA and ND4 gene of the mitochondrial DNA). The inclusion of these taxa into the subgenus Anaphlebotomus Theodor, 1948 is exclusively based on male characters as listed by Theodor (style with four spines, no basal lobe on the coxite, paramere with two or three branches). The very heterogeneous characters of the females do not allow their use for the defintion of this subgenus, which is probably not homogeneous.
