Abstract: Leishmaniasis is still considered a main health problem in Syria. Three epidemiological forms are known in this country: ACL (L. tropica), ZCL (L. major) and VL (L. infantum) which spread according to the geographical nature of the place (the altitude); the species of the vectors (sandflies) [1], the animal reservoirs and many other environmental factors. Table 1 presents the parasite species, the vector species, the animal reservoirs and the transmission way.
