Comparative Feeding and Defecation Behaviors of Trypanosoma cruzi-Infected and Uninfected Triatomines (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) from the Americas

Insects
Triatomines are vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi (Kinetoplastida: Trypanosomatidae), the agent of Chagas disease. Stercorarian transmission occurs when infectious parasites are passed in insect feces to vertebrates through the biting wound or mucosa ...

Daily rhythm of aggregation in the haematophagous bug Triatoma infestans (Heteroptera: Reduviidae)

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2007
Triatomine bugs show a temporal modulation of many activities. Here, we analyse the daily modulation of the aggregation behaviour of Triatoma infestans larvae and its chronobiological basis.

Heterochromatin patterns in triatomines of the genus Panstrongylus

, 1999
Spermatogenesis was analysed by C-banding in two species of triatomines, Panstrongylus megistus and Fl herreri. Both species revealed interstitial and terminal bands in the autosomes, which is a common pattern in Heteroptera.
