One Genome, Multiple Phenotypes: Would Rhodnius milesi Carcavallo, Rocha, Galvão & Jurberg, 2001 (Hemiptera, Triatominae) Be a Valid Species or a Phenotypic Polymorphism of R. neglectus Lent, 1954?

open access: yesDiversity
Species of the Rhodnius genus have a complex taxonomy because the events of phenotypic plasticity and cryptic speciation make it difficult to correctly classify these vectors. During the taxonomic history of the genus, five synonymization events occurred.

Phylogenetic relationships and evolutionary patterns of the genus Psammolestes Bergroth, 1911 (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae)

open access: yesBMC Ecology and Evolution, 2022
The evolutionary history of biodiversity in South America has been poorly studied in the seasonal dry tropical forest (SDTF). Species diversification in this ecosystem may have a twofold explanation. First, intermittent connections in the middle and late

Novel finding of Panstrongylus rufotuberculatus (Champion, 1899) (Hemiptera, Reduviidae, Triatominae) in Belize, with a note on single Rhodnius Stål, 1859 species observations

open access: yesCheck List
We report Triatominae species Panstrongylus rufotuberculatus (Champion, 1899) for the first time in Belize. The specimen was collected in Cayo District, Belize in 2003 and later discovered in 2023 in a research collection.

Comparative descriptions of eggs from three species of Rhodnius (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The authors describe and compare the morphological and ultrastructural characteristics of eggs from the three most recent described species of the genus Rhodnius Stål, 1859, which have not previously been studied. These species are Rhodnius colombiensis (

Trapping sylvatic Triatominae (Reduviidae) in hollow trees [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions 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'

Successional and native forests predict the occurrence and infection status of Chagas disease vectors in Panama

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
Findings here show that successional forest predicts greater kissing bug infestation risk in palm trees, whereas native forest predicts lower kissing bug occurrence but greater infection with T. cruzi. These insights can guide land use planning towards vegetation management practices that help minimize T. cruzi transmission risks for rural communities.

Formal Assignation of the Kissing Bug Triatoma lecticularia (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae) to the Genus Paratriatoma

open access: yesInsects, 2021
Simple Summary The genus Paratriatoma is closely related to the paraphyletic genus Triatoma—the most diverse and relevant in the epidemiology of Chagas disease. Molecular phylogenetic treatments consistently place the species Triatoma lecticularia (Stål,

Sex in Immune Cells and Parasitic Diseases — A Complex Relationship

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, Volume 337, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Epidemiological studies consistently show that many parasitic diseases affect males more frequently than females. These disparities are multifactorial, arising partly from gender‐specific behaviors that influence exposure risk and health‐seeking practices, especially in low‐ and middle‐income countries. Increasing evidence also highlights that
