Triatoma rubrovaria (Blanchard, 1843)

This kissing bug lives in southern parts of South America. It can be found in houses and feeds on a large variety of hosts which include mammals like bovines and humans, but also invertebrates. In laboratory studies, it has been shown to be a competent vector of Trypanosoma cruzi and might transmit the disease in the field.
