Wild populations of Triatoma infestans are highly connected to intra-peridomestic conspecific populations in the Bolivian Andes.
Triatoma infestans, the major vector of Chagas disease south of the Amazon in South America, has a large distribution of wild populations, contrary to what has previously been stated. These populations have been suspected of being the source of reinfestation of human habitats and could impede the fu...
