Acephaline gregarines of one or more species were found in the hemocoel of 10 species of sandflies. Only 18 of more than 6000 female flies dissected contained this parasite. No pathogenic conditions were noticed in the flies. Also, mycelia of fungi occurred in individuals of 10 sandfly species. The fungus was almost always associated with the gonads.
