Abstract Aim The tropical niche conservatism (TNC) hypothesis is one of the most prominent evolutionary hypotheses that has been supported as an explanation for the diversity gradients of several animal taxa, mainly vertebrates. However, the validity of TNC for less‐known taxa such as disease vectors is not clear.

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

Medida da infestação domiciliar por Triatoma sordida [PDF]
Procurou-se verificar a viabilidade do uso de abrigos artificiais de madeira tipo "calha" para diagnóstico de infestação domiciliar por Triatoma sordida. Foi observada uma amostra de 45 casas e 27 anexos, em duas localidades pertencentes ao municpio de Guaíra na região Norte do Estado de São Paulo (Brasil), durante um período de 7 meses, a partir de ...
