Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) Distribution Mapping of Phlebotomus papatasi, Phlebotomus tobbi, and Phlebotomus sergenti in Çukurova Region, Turkey

Abstract

Phlebotomus (P.) papatasi, P. (P.) tobbi, and P. (P.) sergenti species occur as the main vectors for Cutaneous Leishmaniasis (CL) in Çukurova Region (Adana, Mersin, Osmaniye), Turkey. The Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) method was used to demonstrate the distribution modeling of P. papatasi, P. tobbi, and P. sergenti collected from Çukurova Region. According to the Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) method, the center of the dispersal of all three sand fly species was demonstrated as İmamoğlu where the CL disease is common.
