| Abstract: | The sandflies of Malta have been previously described by Marett (1910), Newstead (1911), and Whittingham and Rook (1922). The attention of these authors was attracted mainly to Phlebotomus papatasii which they considered to be the commonest sandfly on the island. The observations recorded in the present paper cover the whole of the sandfly seasons of 1931 and 1932. The following six species were found:— P. Perniciosus Newstead. P. Papatasii Soop. |
