Potential Distribution of Chagas Disease Vectors (Hemiptera, Reduviidae, Triatominae) in Colombia, Based on Ecological Niche Modeling

open access: yesJournal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Ecological niche modeling of Triatominae bugs allow us to establish the local risk of transmission of the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, which causes Chagas disease. This information could help to guide health authority recommendations on infection monitoring, prevention, and control.

New sex-determination system in the genus  Panstrongylus (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) revealed by chromosomal analysis of Panstrongylus lutzi [PDF]

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2016
Panstrongylus lutzi (Neiva & Pinto, 1923) is a triatomine species native to Caatinga habitats in north-eastern Brazil. It is considered an important vector of Chagas disease in this region, presenting high rates of natural infection with Trypanosoma cruzi Chagas, 1909, and readily invading houses by flight.

A revised classification of the assassin bugs (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Reduviidae) based on combined analysis of phylogenomic and morphological data

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 1, Page 102-138, January 2025.
This study produces the first combined morphological and molecular phylogenetic analysis for Reduviidae and reveals synapomorphies and diagnostic traits for clades at the ranks of subfamilies and tribes. Based on our resulting robust phylogenetic reconstructions and subsequent optimization of morphological character information, we propose a ...

Morphometric Analysis of the Host Effect on Phenotypical Variation of Belminus ferroae (Hemiptera: Triatominae)

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
The Triatominae subfamily includes hematophagous insects, well known for their role as vectors for the Trypanosoma cruzi parasite, etiologic agent of Chagas’ disease. Belminus ferroae is a triatomine that showed an increased demographic fitness when cockroaches were used as hosts. Here we compare the centroid size (CS) and wing shape between B. ferroae

Trypanosomes and gut microbiota interactions in triatomine bugs and tsetse flies: A vectorial perspective

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 253-268, September 2024.
Trypanosoma sp. presence modulates or has zero effect on gut microbiota composition. Microbiota presence modulates or has zero effect on Trypanosoma sp. growth. Vector biology of triatomine bugs and tsetse flies influences their gut microbiota composition.
