getting it "wrong". Usage accepts sandfly on this side of the <st1:place
w:st="on">Atlantic</st1:place>. As Bob pointed out the divide between sandfly
and sand-fly is the <st1:place w:st="on">Atlantic Ocean</st1:place>. The
Oxford English Dictionary and Collins offer only sandfly, Webster offers only
sand fly. Encyclopedia Britannica uses sand fly, but then includes midges and
gnats. Wikipedia is utterly confused. Trawling the publications of
the famous ento- parasito-logists showed that British journals such as
TRSTMH use sandfly, Continental journals mostly use sandfly when
publishing in English, but some such as Parassitologia seem a little more
flexible and use either. US journals use sand fly, but adopted the style at
different times: AJTMH in abut 1983, Science and Mem Inst Oswaldo
Cruz by about 2000. I found only one sand-fly. So select your journal
carefully if you have strong feelings. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

sand fly. The convention is that two words indicate a dipteran - eg. sand fly,
tsetse fly, horse fly, stable fly etc, - whereas one word indicates
a non-dipteran - eg. mayfly, damselfly, hoverfly etc. It seems sensible to
me and I follow it. [This is opposed by Chris Schofield. But he works on
