dc.description.abstract	Human cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL), caused by the usually visceralizing species L.donovani, has recently emerged as an important public health problem in Sri Lanka. Furthermore, genetic studies showed that the local strain of L.donovani is different from the members of same species complex found in other endemic sites in the world indicating possible differences in the clinico-epidemiological characteristics too.
