According to the classification of Galati (1995 , 2003 ) subgenus Helcocyrtomyia is distinguished from other Lutzomyia subgenera ( sensu Galati ) by the following combination of characters: katepisternum with pilosity on anterior margin; tarsomere 3 with spines grouped in 3 or more rows; male gonostylus with two apical spiniform setae; female spermatheca annulated. Remarks. Lutzomyia (Helcocyrtomyia) as defined by Galati (2003) differs from that defined by Young & Duncan (1994) as the latter included species of the species-group migonei , Pintomyia (Pifanomyia) series pia , Micropygomyia (Coquillettimyia) series vexator , series chiapanensis , and a few ungrouped species. Currently there are approximately 36 species belonging to 3 series; sanguinaria , osornoi and peruensis ( Galati 2003 ) . In this study we collected one species of series sanguinaria .
