An overview on the ecology of Triatominae (Hemiptera:Reduviidae)

open access: yesActa Tropica, 2015
Chagas disease, the American trypanosomiasis, is an important neglected tropical illness caused by the flagellate protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi (Kinetoplastida, Trypanosomatidae) and transmitted by insects of the subfamily Triatominae (Hemiptera: Reduviidae).

A primitive triatomine bug, Paleotriatoma metaxytaxa gen. et sp. nov. (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae), in mid-Cretaceous amber from northern Myanmar

Cretaceous Research, 2019
The present study describes a primitive kissing bug (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae) in mid-Cretaceous amber from northern Myanmar. The fossil, which is described as Paleotriatoma metaxytaxa gen. et sp.

Revised New World bioregions and environmental correlates for Chagas diseases vectors (Hemiptera, Triatominae).

Acta Tropica, 2023
The subfamily Triatominae includes a group of hematophagous insects, vectors of the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, which is the etiological agent of Chagas disease, also known as American trypanosomiasis.

Distribution patterns of Triatominae (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) in the Americas: an analysis based on networks and endemicity

Cladistics, 2022
Triatominae, commonly known as kissing bugs, are a group of approximately 150 species of hematophagous reduviids, some of which are vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of the Chagas disease.

Ultraconserved elements reconstruct the evolution of Chagas disease‐vectoring kissing bugs (Reduviidae: Triatominae)

, 2021
Triatominae are the largest radiation of haematophagous species within the true bugs (Hemiptera) and the sole vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi Chagas, the causative agent of Chagas disease, a neglected human disease that affects millions.

Molecular data confirm Triatoma pallidipennis Stål, 1872 (Hemiptera:Reduviidae: Triatominae), as a novel cryptic species complex.

Acta Tropica, 2022
Triatoma pallidipennis constitues one of the most important Chagas disease vector in Mexico. Previous studies based on molecular data suggest T. pallidipennis as a complex of cryptic species. For that reason, we analyzed the phylogenetic relationships of

Biosystematics of Old World Triatominae

Acta Tropica, 1997
Morphometric analysis of Old World species of Linshcosteus and Triatoma showed the two genera to be well separated. However, although the analysis showed clear distinction between the five species of Linshcosteus, there was considerable overlap between the eight Old World species of Triatoma, including specimens of T.

Ecology of North American Triatominae

Acta Tropica, 2009
In all, 40 native triatomine species and subspecies occur in NA, belonging to six genera from the Triatomini (Triatoma, Paratriatoma, Panstrongylus, Dipetalogaster, Belminus, Eratyrus), and one genus from the Rhodniini (represented by one non-native species Rhodnius prolixus, formerly occurring exclusively in domestic habitats); 28 species are found ...

The Development of Trypanosoma cruzi in Triatominae

Parasitology Today, 2000
Trypanosoma cruzi multiplies and differentiates in the digestive tract of triatomine insects. These insects ingest an enormous amount of blood, with ingestion followed very rapidly by a strong diuresis, slow digestion and occasionally long periods of starvation.
