Bibliography of Leishmania and Leishmanial Diseases. Volume 1

Abstract

This is one of two volumes listing the literature on the epidemiology, biology, systematics, and clinical aspects of leishmanial agents of human disease and their phlebotomine vectors. Selected references to Leishmania species infecting hosts other than man, including some insect and plant flagellate references, have been included, but few titles have been included in which leishmanial parasites or vectors have been peripherally mentioned. This is in contrast with the tick bibliography volumes, in which considerable time and effort were expended to include all such references. The literature coverage on phlebotomines has also been arbitrary, limited largely to known vector species, with particular emphasis on biological, systematic, and epidemiological aspects. Some references to sandfly fever and bartonellosis have been included if leishmanial vectors appeared to be involved or there is some overlap with leishmaniasis epidemiology or distribution.
