Aggregation Behaviour and Interspecific Responses in Three Species of Triatominae

The response to intra- and interspecific assembling signals was tested in three species of Chagas' disease vectors. As previously describedfor Triatoma infestans, larvae of both species, T. sordida and T. guasayana, aggregated on papers impregnated with their own excrement. Moreover, bugs belon...
