Abstract: In 1987 the University of Guadalajara performed a seroepidemiological survey on the prevalence of Chagas disease in the 124 counties of the State of Jalisco, Mexico, arriving at a rate of 21.6 per 100 inhabitants. From December 1993 to June 1994, we studied 2238 individuals from 32 rural counties in this State. Of these, we found 276 positives (12.33%) and 1962 negatives (87.66%). Nevertheless, the series of serological differences found are very striking, since out of the 655 individuals that were seropositi… Show more

“…The epidemiologic importance of T. longipennis is supported by significant rates of human seroprevalence in areas where this vector is predominant and highly infected by T. cruzi. 21 Although T. longipennis is rarely observed indoors and is mainly present in peridomicilary compounds, even in Chagas disease transmission areas, information about T. longipennis behavior in peridomicilary areas is still limited, and risk factors for peridomicilary infestation are not known. 5,19 In the occidental and central parts of Mexico, the species of the phyllosoma complex are the most abundant.…”
