Population dynamics of Lutzomyia shannoni Dyar were studied on Ossabaw Island, GA, to define further the role of this species in the epizootiology of the New Jersey serotype of vesicular stomatitis (VSNJ) virus. Bimonthly collections of sand flies egressing from hollow trees from April to November 1991 indicated that there were three generations of sand flies. Data from light trap collections from 1986 through 1989 indicated that similar seasonal cycles occurred during previous years. At this site, we hypothesize that L. shannoni undergoes facultative diapause. Two isolates of VSNJ virus were obtained from female sand flies collected in May and June of 1991. We believe that the virus overwinters in immature L. shannoni and that transovarially infected sand flies emerging each spring initiate a summer amplification cycle in swine on Ossabaw Island.
