Morphometric variability among the species of the Sordida subcomplex (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae): evidence for differentiation across the distribution range of Triatoma sordida [PDF]
Background The Sordida subcomplex (Triatominae) comprises four species, Triatoma garciabesi, T. guasayana, T. patagonica and T. sordida, which differ in epidemiological importance and adaptations to human environments.

The cuticular hydrocarbons of the Triatoma sordida species subcomplex (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) [PDF]
The cuticular hydrocarbons of the Triatoma sordida subcomplex (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae) were ana-lysed by gas chromatography and their structures identified by mass spectrometry. They comprised mostly n-alkanes and methyl-branched alkanes with

Dispersive flight and house invasion by Triatoma guasayana and Triatoma sordida in Argentina [PDF]
Flight activity and invasion of houses by Triatoma sordida and T. guasayana were studied in the Province of Santiago del Estero, Argentina. Spontaneous findings of both species in houses were recorded from 1982 to 1989.

Markers for the population genetics studies of Triatoma sordida (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) [PDF]
Background Triatoma sordida, a vector of Trypanosoma cruzi, is native of Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, Argentina, and Uruguay, and occurs primarily in peridomiciles. Currently, it is the species most frequently captured by the Chagas Disease Control Program

Cryptic speciation in the Triatoma sordida subcomplex (Hemiptera, Reduviidae) revealed by chromosomal markers [PDF]
Background Chagas disease vectors (Hemiptera-Reduviidae) comprise more than 140 blood-sucking insect species of the Triatominae subfamily. The largest genus is Triatoma, subdivided in several complexes and subcomplexes according to morphology, ecology ...

Assessing the mitochondrial DNA diversity of the Chagas disease vector Triatoma sordida (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) [PDF]
Triatoma sordida is a species that transmits Trypanosoma cruzi to humans. In Brazil, T. sordida currently deserves special attention because of its wide distribution, tendency to invade domestic environments and vectorial competence. For the planning and

Rewiring the Vehicle: <i>Trypanosoma cruzi</i> Parasites Alter the Antennae of Their Triatomine Hosts. [PDF]
Parasite Trypanosoma cruzi infects triatomine bugs. Infection induces antennal sensillum change in distribution and number in bugs. Antennal sensillum changes can make the bugs' search for food more efficient. ABSTRACT This study investigates the antennal phenotype of the kissing bug Triatoma pallidipennis (Stål), a primary vector of Chagas disease, by

Oral transmission of Chagas disease from a One Health approach: A systematic review
Abstract Objective To analyse acute Chagas disease (CD) outbreaks through a qualitative systematic review and discuss the determinants for its prevention and control. Methods Review of studies in which clinical cases of oral transmission were confirmed by parasitological and/or serological tests that included an epidemiological investigation of sources
