Triatoma protracta (Uhler, 1894)
This species of kissing bug is found in southern, mainly south-western parts of North America. It can occur in houses and is frequently infected with the Chagas disease agent (Trypanosoma cruzi). It appears to be the most common Chagas disease vector in California (Shender et al., 2016).
