Chaetotaxy of the fourth larval stage of Pintomyia longiflocosa, a primary vector of cutaneous leishmaniasis in Colombia
These results support the potential importance of morphological characters from the fourth larval instar, such as antennal morphology and chaetotaxy, specifically in closely related species that are cryptic in their adult stages.
