Triatoma vitticeps is a species of triatomine endemic to Brazil, distributed in the states of Bahia, Espírito Santo, Minas Gerais and Rio de Janeiro. High intraspecific genetic distance between T. vitticeps from different locations led to the hypothesis that the phenomenon of cryptic speciation (genetically distinct species, but morphologically identical) is present in this species and, m…
Triatoma vitticeps (Stål, 1859) is an endemic species of Brazil that presents vector importance in the transmission of Chagas disease, as there are reports of adults colonizing domiciliary regions, as well as the capture of specimens infected with the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi (Chagas, 1909) (the etiologic agent of Chagas' disease) in homes. Analysis of the genetic distance of mitochond…
