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 ...

Land‐mark based geomorphometric wing analysis of Glossina morsitans populations in Zambia shows that this tsetse exhibit significant population‐level variation in fly size and wing shape suggesting high levels of population structuring. The main drivers of this structuring could be random genetic drift and local adaptation to environmental conditions ...

Cytogenetics as a tool for Triatomine species distinction (Hemiptera-Reduviidae) [PDF]
Several cytogenetic traits were tested as species diagnostic characters on five triatomine species: Rhodnius pictipes, R. nasutus, R. robustus, Triatoma matogrossensis and T. pseudomaculata. Four of them are described for the first time. The detailed analysis of the meiotic process and the application of C-banding allowed us to identify seven ...
