Triatoma infestans is the most widespread synanthropic species of Triatominae and the most important vector of Chagas disease in South America. The progressive geographical expansion of this species from its silvatic focus ...
Sylvatic triatomines (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) in Bolivia : trends toward domesticity and possibleinfection with Trypanosoma cruzi (Kinetoplastida: Trypanosomatidae)
(Journal of Medical Entomology, 1995)
ABSTRACT
The risk of domestic transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi (Chagas) by sylvatic triatomines was assessed in an isolated area of the subandean region of Bolivia. None of the 390 residents examined had serological ...
Genetic structure of Triatoma sordida (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) domestic populations from Bolivia : application on control interventions
(Mem. Inst. Oswaldo Cruz, 1999)
The genetic population of Triatoma sordida group 1, a secondary vector of Chagas disease in Bolivia, was studied by multi-locus enzyme electrophoresis. A total of 253 nymphal and adult specimens collected from seven ...
