Unraveling the Morphological Variation of <i>Triatoma infestans</i> in the Peridomestic Habitats of Chuquisaca Bolivia: A Geometric Morphometric Approach

Morphometrics has been used on Triatomines, a well-known phenotypically variable insect, to understand the process of morphological plasticity and infer the changes of this phenomenon. The following research was carried out in two regions of the inter-Andean valleys and two Chaco regions of Chuquisa...
