Potential Colonization of the Peridomicile by Triatoma guasayana (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) in Santiago del Estero, Argentina
Sylvatic triatomines might use the peridomicile as a 1st step in the process of domiciliation. Therefore, we evaluated the capability of sylvatic species to colonize the peridomicile of a rural area in the Province of Santiago del Estero, Argentina. The research was carried out in 6 houses in the vi...
