CORIANO, Héctor et al. Panstrongylus rufotuberculatus (Hemiptera, Reduviidae, Triatominae) infected with Trypanosoma cruzi in the state of Anzoátegui (Venezuela) Antonio Morocoima. Bol Mal Salud Amb [online]. 2012, vol.52, n.1, pp.135-138. ISSN 1690-4648.

In the rural village Mundo Nuevo, municipality Pedro Maria Freites, Anzoátegui state (Venezuela), four adults of Panstrongylus rufotuberculatus (Champion, 1899) (Hemiptera, Reduviidae, Triatominae) were captured in the external wall of a human dwelling. One triatomine was infected by Trypanosoma cruzi. The isolate inoculated in NMRI mice showed parasites in 47% of 11 studied tissues. T.cruzi was confirmed by PCR-kDNA and PCR satellite DNA.The presence of this species represents, to our knowledge,the first report for this state.

Palavras-chave : Panstrongylus rufotuberculatus; Trypanosoma cruzi; Anzoátegui state; Venezuela.
