. Four species of phlebotomine sand flies were collected in the Municipality of Sahuayo, on the High Plateau of Michoacan, representing the first records of phlebotomine sand flies in this region. Two of them, Micropygomyia (Coquillettimyia) vindicator (Dampf) and Psathyromyia (Forattiniella) texana (Dampf), are new records for Michoacan. A total of ten phlebotomine species are now known to oc-cur in this state, and we present a key for their identification. Key words: fauna, new records, sand flies.
