High Spatial Resolution Ensemble Species Distribution Modeling of <i>Rhodnius prolixus</i>, Vector of Chagas Disease, in Western Venezuela. [PDF]
GeohealthAbstract Rhodnius prolixus is the most common and abundant kissing bug found in Royal and other native palms from western Venezuela. R. prolixus is a dominant vector of Trypanosoma cruzi, the parasite causing Chagas disease. Here we use species distribution models (SDMs) to estimate habitat suitability for R. prolixus.
