  abstract = {{I}n the {P}hlebotomine sandflies, a few molecular studies related on the genus {S}ergentomyia have been published. {T}he present study explored the genetic variability within {S}ergentomyia ({S}intonius) clydei ( {D}iptera, {P}sychodidae). {T}he sampling included 15 populations originating from 12 countries. {A} morphological approach was coupled to the sequencing of two molecular markers (cytochrome b mt{DNA} and cacophony nuclear {DNA}). {T}he most variable morphological characters resided in the cibarium of the females, especially (i) the pigment patch pattern and (ii) the number of cibarial teeth and denticles in the armature. {H}owever this morphological approach was unable to individualize any population within {S}. clydei. {T}he {NJ} trees based on both molecular markers individualized the specimens from the {A}ldabra group of islands in the {S}eychelles. {S}urprisingly, cyt b variability was not compatible with the known data about the complete submersion of {A}ldabra occurring relatively recently some 125,000 years ago. {T}he settlement of these islands by {S}. clydei from continental {A}frica, the {M}iddle {E}ast or {A}sia, and the value of mt{DNA} markers are discussed.},
