Abstract Rhodnius prolixus Stål, a major Chagas disease vector, often colonizes in houses, whereas its sister species, Rhodnius robustus Larrousse genotype I, does not colonize in houses and has little medical relevance. Factors potentially underlying this crucial difference remain largely uncharted.

Oviposition in the blood-sucking insect Rhodnius prolixus is modulated by host odors [PDF]
Background: Triatomine bugs are blood-sucking insects, vectors of Chagas disease. Despite their importance, their oviposition behavior has received relatively little attention. Some triatomines including Rhodnius prolixus stick their eggs to a substrate.
