| [indicators of infestation, colonization and infection of triatoma dimidiata (latreille) (hemiptera: reduviidae) in campeche, méxico]. | triatoma dimidiata (latreille) is considered to be one of the primary vectors of chagas disease in southern mexico and central america. the objective of the present study was to obtain ecological information on t. dimidiata in two rural communities of campeche, mexico, where the vector is poorly studied. our work consisted of monthly samplings carried out during one-year time at three levels: sylvatic, peridomestic and intradomestic, in order to estimate the population abundance of this species ... | 2010 | 21271074 |
| triatoma mexicana (hemiptera: reduviidae) in guanajuato, mexico: house infestation and seasonal variation. | triatoma mexicana was described by herrich-schaeffer in 1848. in 1940, a male specimen was found in hidalgo. in 1970, this species was recorded in the state of queretaro. later, it was registered in guanajuato and san luis potosi. in the present paper we performed an investigation in 545 dwellings from three counties in the state of guanajuato, mexico, from march 2003 to may 2004. the search and capture of triatomines were seasonally performed indoors and outdoors. entomological indexes were cal ... | 2007 | 18060318 |
| morphometric analysis of triatoma dimidiata populations (reduviidae:triatominae) from mexico and northern guatemala. | triatoma dimidiata is one of the major vectors of chagas disease in latin america. its range includes mexico, all countries of central america, colombia, and ecuador. in light of recent genetic analysis suggesting that the possible origin of this species is the yucatan peninsula, we have analyzed populations from the state of yucatan, san luis potosi, and veracruz in mexico, and a population from the southern region of the yucatan peninsula located in northern guatemala, the region of el peten. ... | 2005 | 16184224 |
