Abstract

ABSTRACT. The recent collection of nymphal instars of Panstrongylus rufotuberculatus Champion, 1899 (Hemiptera:Reduviidae)from a domestic habitat in Bolivia draws attention to the behaviour of this sylvatic triatomine species and demonstrates its ability to colonize domestic structures. The relevance of this observation to the vector control programme is discussed.
