Triatoma jatai sp. nov. in the state of Tocantins, Brazil (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae) [PDF]
, 2013 Triatoma jatai sp. nov. is the first new species of triatomine to be described in the state of Tocantins, in the northern region of Brazil. It was caught on rock outcrops in the wild environment and, more recently, invading homes. While T. jatai sp. nov.

Karyotype of Rhodnius montenegrensis (Hemiptera, Triatominae) [PDF]
Genetics and Molecular Research, 2015 The Triatominae subfamily comprises 6 tribes. The tribe Rhodniini comprises 2 genera and 22 nominal species. Rhodnius montenegrensis (Hemiptera, Triatominae) was recently described as evolutionarily related to R. robustus. Therefore, in order to contribute to karyosystematic study of the tribe Rhodniini, this report describes the number of chromosomes ...

Trapping sylvatic Triatominae (Reduviidae) in hollow trees [PDF]
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1999 This work reports the trial of a very simple trapping system (comprising small plastic bottles (9 X 6 cm) covered with double coated adhesive tape and containing a mouse as bait ) to collect all instars of triatomines in hollow trees, a favourable ecotope for many triatomine species including T. sordida, T. guasayana, and T. infestans 'dark morphs'

Deciphering morphology in Triatominae: The evolutionary signals
Acta Tropica, 2009 Many species of Triatominae show evidence for morphological plasticity. Frequent taxonomic questions arose from this variability leading to disputes about describing new subspecies, species or even genera. We suggest this phenotypic flexibility is primarily an intraspecific feature, but with potential for evolutionary changes.

Blood meal sources of wild and domestic Triatoma infestans (Hemiptera : Reduviidae) in Bolivia : connectivity between cycles of transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi [PDF]
, 2016 Background: Chagas disease is a major public health problem in Latin America. Its etiologic agent, Trypanosoma cruzi, is mainly transmitted through the contaminated faeces of blood-sucking insects called triatomines. Triatoma infestans is the main vector
