title: [Parvidens heischi (Kirk et Lewis, 1950) (Diptera-Psychodidae) firstly reported in Cameroon].
abstract: Parvidens heischi (Kirk et Lewis, 1950) (Diptera: Psychodidae) has been reported in Cameroon. This is the first record in West Africa of this species which can be eventually caught in large number on man and therefore must be considered as a potential vector for leishmaniasis.
