In Central America it seems to be confined entirely to domestic and peridomestic habitats, whereas sylvatic populations have been recognized in various parts of Venezuela and Colombia, mainly in palm tree crowns, which are assumed to represent the original ecotope of this species (e.g. Gamboa, 1963).enRHODNIUS PROLIXUSMORFOMETRÍAENFERMEDAD DE CHAGASGENÉTICA DE POBLACIONESAMÉRICA CENTRALThe origin of Rhodnius prolixus in Central AmericaArticle
