Antennal Phenotype of Triatoma dimidiata Populations and Its Relationship with Species of phyllosoma and protracta Complexes [PDF]
Triatoma dimidiata (Latreille 1811) Reduviidae Triatominae is the main vector of Chagas disease in several countries of Latin America. As for other vector species, the characterization of T. dimidiata subpopulations within particular geographical regions

The magnitude of cryptic insect diversity in one tropical rainforest
We detected 214 cryptic species out of a total of 2006 species (10.6%) examined from 22 focal insect taxa in 1500 ha tropical rainforest in Panama. The percentage of cryptic species varied greatly among assemblages (0%–19%), with half of the assemblages devoid of cryptic species and the highest proportions of cryptics in Pieridae and Formicidae ...

Field trials of an improved cost-effective device for detecting peridomestic populations of Triatoma infestans (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) in rural Argentina [PDF]
An improved device for detecting peridomestic Triatoma infestans consisting of one-liter recycled Tetra Brik milk boxes with a central structure was tested using a matched-pair study design in two rural areas in Argentina.

Satellite DNAs comprise the major component of the Triatoma rubrofasciata repeatome, highlighting their central role in genome composition and architecture. Satellite DNA families show recent amplification in heterochromatin and older, more divergent satellite DNAs located in euchromatin, indicating distinct evolutionary histories.

Potential geographic displacement of Chagas disease vectors under climate change
As a result of modelling the potential distribution of 55 triatomine species in the Neotropical region, with climate change projected for up to 2050, we found no significant changes. With climate change projected for up to 2080 in the Neotropical region, we see a significant potential for the migration of 55 species of triatomines towards the Amazon ...
