Phlebotomus caucasicus (F)
Phlebotomus caucasicus Marzinowsky, 1917
Subgenus: Paraphlebotomus Theodor, 1948
Females of P. andrejevi, P. caucasicus, and P. mongolensis can be easily distinguished from the other Paraphlebotomus females by their weakly developed pharyngeal armature. But discrimination of these three species by using morphological characters are impossible.
