“…In contrast, the monthly rainfall from January-May averaged ~280 mm (www.inmet.gov.br). This trend, noted also by Naiff et al (1998) for P. geniculatus specimens flying into houses in Manaus, needs obviously to be confirmed with more data. It is nonetheless worth highlighting that reports of acute Chagas disease cases are also strongly biased towards the second half of the year in the Brazilian Amazon (Figure).…”

“…For example, Naiff et al (1998) reported only three species (P. geniculatus, R. robustus and R. pictipes) in an urban environment, and Valente et al (2009) collected only two species (R. pictipes and P. geniculatus) in and around a rural settlement. Bérenger et al (2009) reported similar results from French Guiana: 11 triatomine species were collected in forested areas, but only five (P. geniculatus, P. lignarius, R. pictipes, R. robustus, and E. mucronatus) were found in anthropic landscapes.…”

“…A invasão de espécies do gênero Rhodnius em novos habitats, inclusive habitações humanas, poderia ocorrer devido à carência nutricional nos ecótopos naturais ou devido a estratégias de dispersão, sendo a presença de fontes luminosas artificiais e a sazonalidade 26 fatores que poderiam influenciar esse processo. Desequilíbrios ecológicos decorrentes de desmatamento poderiam diminuir a oferta de fontes alimentares nesses ecótopos favorecendo a entrada dos vetores no ambiente domiciliar, principalmente à noite, atraídos pela luz.…”
