| [first report of triatoma nigromaculata (stål, 1859) (hemiptera, reduviidae, triatominae) for colombia]. | the presence of triatoma nigromaculata was recorded for the first time in colombia in the rural village la playa in the province of cauca. a single female was captured from an outdoor area near a household. the presence of trypanosoma parasites in the specimen was not established due to the poor condition of the specimen. the epidemiological importance of this finding is discussed with respect to the potential for transmission of chagas disease in the province of cauca and, more broadly, in colo ... | 2005 | 16276689 |
| [antennal phenotype variation in sylvatic, peridomestic and domestic populations of triatoma dimidiata (hemiptera: reduviidae) from santander, colombia]. | triatoma dimidiata is one of the widely distributed triatomines in colombia. the phenotype of the antenna is a characteristic of populations that can differ among habitats and can give information concerning its biology and behavior. this information in turn can be used in the development of new methodological proposals for its control. | 2007 | 18154249 |
| feeding behaviour of belminus ferroae (hemiptera: reduviidae), a predaceous triatominae colonizing rural houses in norte de santander, colombia. | belminus ferroae (hemiptera: reduviidae) was collected from houses in the localities of san alberto and santa catalina in the municipality of toledo, department of norte de santander, colombia. precipitin tests revealed that the main hosts of b. ferroae are insects belonging to the order blattodea, whose haemolymph serves as food (89.43%). a low rate of haematophagy was indicated on rodents, dogs and humans (7.32%) and no natural infection with trypanosoma cruzi was found by either microscopic e ... | 2010 | 20408957 |
| [genetic differentiation of three colombian populations of triatoma dimidiata (heteroptera: reduviidae) by nd4 mitochondrial gene molecular analysis]. | triatoma dimidiata is the second most important vector of chagas disease in colombia after rhodnius prolixus. population genetic studies are essential for the adequate design and implementation of vector control and surveillance strategies. | 2010 | 20890568 |
