Chromosome Structure and Evolution of Triatominae: A Review
Triatominae - The Biology of Chagas Disease Vectors, 2021The subfamily Triatominae, vectors of Chagas disease, represents one of the most cytogenetically studied subfamilies within the true bugs. To date, the chromosome numbers of more than 100 out of the 150 recognized species of the subfamily are known, resulting in an extremely stable group in terms of the number of autosomes (18, 20, and 22) and sex ...

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.

Speciation Processes in Triatominae
2021This chapter intends to familiarize the reader with the basic concepts regarding speciation in insects, through the description and exemplification of the three most common speciation modes described in the specialized literature on the subject: the allopatric, parapatric, and sympatric speciation modes.

Biosystematics of Old World Triatominae
Acta Tropica, 1997Morphometric 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, 2009In 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, 2000Trypanosoma 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.

An overview on the ecology of Triatominae (Hemiptera:Reduviidae)
Acta Tropica, 2015Chagas 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).

Molecular Taxonomy of Triatominae (Hemiptera: Reduviidae)1
Journal of Medical Entomology, 1967A taxonomic study of the subfamily Triatominae was conducted to determine systematic relationships using agar gel diffusion methods in the differentiation of ova antigens and electrophoresis to differentiate hemolymph proteins. Agar gel diffusion methods indicated that 2 distinctive Triatominae species from South America could be distinguished from ...

Hematophagous Bugs (Reduviidae, Triatominae)
2015The members of the subfamily Triatominae (Heteroptera, Reduviidae) are vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi (Chagas), the causative agent of Chagas disease or American trypanosomiasis. As important vectors, triatomine bugs have attracted ongoing attention, and thus, various aspects of their systematics, biology, ecology, biogeography, and evolution have been ...
