An inside look at the sensory biology of triatomines [PDF]
Journal of Insect Physiology, 2017 Although kissing bugs (Triatominae: Reduviidae) are perhaps best known as vectors of Chagas disease, they are important experimental models in studies of insect sensory physiology, pioneered by the seminal studies of Wigglesworth and Gillet more than eighty years ago.

Heme crystallization in the midgut of triatomine insects [PDF]
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part C: Toxicology & Pharmacology, 2007 Hemozoin (Hz) is a heme crystal produced by several blood-feeding organisms in order to detoxify free heme released upon hemoglobin (Hb) digestion. Here we show that heme crystallization also occurs in three species of triatomine insects. Ultraviolet-visible and infrared light absorption spectra of insoluble pigments isolated from the midgut of three ...
