ABSTRACT
The feeding time for sand fly females was determined experimentally by feeding of thirty females [3-5 days-old] sand fly Phlebotomus papatasi on different blood sources [human, pigeon, hamster and blab C mice]. Mean feeding time was longest on blab C mice, 8.55 minutes, followed by hamster, 7.05 minutes, then pigeon, 4.84minutes, and finally human, 4.69 minutes. Significant difference was observed in the feeding time between females fed on hamster and balb c mice but there is no significant difference between females fed on human and pigeon
