Article Synopsis
- * The study analyzed trapping data for eight sand fly species across seven countries, revealing varied meteorological limits for each species' activity based on factors like temperature and precipitation.
- * Findings indicate that some species, like Phlebotomus balcanicus, have broader tolerances to weather changes, while others are more sensitive, helping to identify important ecological niches and support targeted surveillance efforts against pathogen spread.
Sand flies (Diptera: Phlebotominae) are the principal vectors for the protozoan parasites Leishmania spp. and for phleboviruses. The sand fly fauna on the Balkan Peninsula, including Bosnia and Herzegovina (BIH), is diverse and the circulation of Leishmania infantum as well as phleboviruses has been proven.

In the Balkans, the endemicity and spreading of sand fly-borne diseases are evident, particularly in the Republic of Kosovo, a country with a predominantly humid continental climate.

However, it is not known how it will influence the habitats occupied by the species and its environmental fitness within its future range.
Methods: To study this question, the habitat characteristic of the mosquito was investigated for 2081-2100.
