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

Research needs for Chagas disease prevention.
We present an overview of the two main strategies for the primary (vector control) and secondary (patient care) prevention of Chagas disease (CD). We identify major advances, knowledge gaps, and key research needs in both areas.

The Influence of Environmental Cues on the Development of Trypanosoma cruzi in Triatominae Vector
Trypanosoma cruzi, a hemoflagellate parasite, is the etiological agent of Chagas disease that affects about 6–7 million people worldwide, mostly in Latin America.

Deciphering morphology in Triatominae: The evolutionary signals
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.

Karyotype of Rhodnius montenegrensis (Hemiptera, Triatominae) [PDF]
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 ...
