JURBERG & C. GALVÃO Abstract: The members of the subfamily Triatominae (Heteroptera, Reduviidae) are vectors of Try- panosoma cruzi (CHAGAS 1909), the causative agent of Chagas disease or American trypanosomiasis. As important vectors, triatomine bugs have attracted ongoing attention, and, thus, various aspects of their systematics, biology, ecology, biogeography, and evolution have been studied for decades. In the present paper the authors summarize the current knowledge on the biology, ecology, and systematics of these vectors and discuss the implications for human health. Key words: Chagas disease, Hemiptera, Triatominae, Trypanosoma cruzi, vectors. Historical background (DARWIN 1871; LENT & WYGODZINSKY 1979). The first triatomine bug species was de- scribed scientifically by Carl DE GEER American trypanosomiasis or Chagas (1773), (Fig. 1), but according to LENT & disease was discovered in 1909 under curi- WYGODZINSKY (1979), the first report on as- ous circumstances.

Notes on the Life Cycle and Natural History of Butterflies of El Salvador Iii C
Jou",al of the Le pidopterists' Society 33(2), 1979, 112-123 NOTES ON THE LIFE CYCLE AND NATURAL HISTORY OF BUTTERFLIES OF EL SALVADOR III C. HISTORIS ODIUS AND COEA ACHERONTA (NYMPHALIDAE-COLOBURINAE) ALBERT MUYSHONDT, JR. AND ALBERTO MUYSHONDT 101 Avenida Norte #322, San Salvador, El Salvador ABSTRACT. A complete photo-illustrated report on the early stages of Historis odius (Fabricius) and a partial of Coea acheronta (Fabricius) are presented, which reveals similarities between the two species suggesting a very close relationship. Both species utilize the same foodplant in El Salvador, Cecropia mexicana (Moraceae), whose close relative, C. peltata, has been reported as foodplant in Brazil by some authors under the vernacular name "Embauba." The placement of these two species in the Coloburini is questioned and some striking larval similarities with Smyrna blomfildia and S. karwinskii (both also questionably placed in the Coloburini) and with Pycina zelis (placed among the Vanesiini) are pOinted out. Larvae of Historis odius are subject to heavy parasitization mostly by tachinid flies and one case of nematode parasitization, (Mermis sp.), is recorded. Historis odius is by far more abundant in El Salvador than Coea acheronta and covers a wider range of altitudes. This article presents information on the life cycles and natural histories of the two largest species of butterflies included in the Coloburini: Historis odius (Fabricius) and Coea acheronta (Fabricius).1 The first time we saw the eggs of Historis odius was 6 October 1970 when our good friend Viktor Hellebuyck captured and papered a female. Some 15 eggs were deposited by the female while still alive inside the envelope. -

The egg body and operculum have an exochorion formed by irregular juxtaposed polygonal cells; these cells are without sculpture and the majority of them are hexagonal in shape. The five instars of T. dimidiata can be distinguished from each other by characteristics of the pre, meso and metanotum. The number of setiferous tubercles increases progressively among instars. The sulcus stridulatorium of 1st instar nymphs is amorphous, showing median parallel grooves; from the 2nd instar on the sulcus is, progressively, elongate, deep and posteriorly pointed with stretched parallel grooves. All instars have a trichobothrium on the apical 1/3 of segment II of the antenna. The opening of the Brindley’s gland is on the mesopleura. Fifth instar nymphs have an apical ctenidium on the ventral surface of the fore tibia. Dorsal glabrous patches are found on the lateral 1/3 of abdomen. Bright oval patches are found on the ventral median line of the abdomen, from segment IV-VI; 1st instar nymphs lack these patches. -

Los híbridos de triatominos han mostrado características biológicas sobresalientes respecto de sus parentales, lo que puede incrementar el riesgo de transmisión de Trypanosoma cruzi Chagas, 1909, a los hospederos. Por ello, se entrecruzaron ejemplares de Triatoma recurva (Stål), 1868 y de Meccus phyllosomus longipennis (Usinger) 1939, y se obtuvo una cohorte híbrida para comparar los valores de los parámetros biológicos relacionados con su ciclo de vida. Las tres cohortes fueron mantenidas bajo condiciones similares de laboratorio. La cohorte híbrida tuvo el tiempo promedio menor de primer estadio a adulto (156.4±15.7 días). El número de alimentaciones para cambiar de estadio (10.1±2.3; 10.3±1.6) fue menor en las cohortes de M. p. longipennis e híbrida, respectivamente. La cohorte híbrida mostró la menor mortalidad (26.1%) y mayor porcentaje (58.9%) de hembras al final del ciclo biológico. La fecundidad por hembra por día (2.1±1.1) fue igualmente mayor en los híbridos. El porcentaje de eclosión de huevos fue superior a 97% en la cohorte híbrida. -
