| Abstract | Nutritional status relating to flight activity was investigated in natural populations of Triatoma
sordida and T. guasayana during the dry season in the Bolivian Chaco. The peak flight activity of both
species was unimodal and covered the period 61-180 min after sunset. The weight of insects was used as
the indicator of nutritional status. Interspecies comparisons employing the same sex and type of capture
showed a higher weight for T. guasayana. No significant difference according to weight was observed
between flying insects and those collected in natural ecotopes (hollow trees and bromeliads). More than
87% of insects collected from natural ecotopes displayed flight ability under the study conditions, explaining their tendency to invade artificial structures during the dry season. | pt_BR |
