摘要: Feeding and defecaction behavior of Rhodnius prolixus Stal, 1859, R. robustus Larrousse, 1927, neivai Lent, 1953 pictipes 1872, artificially fed on human blood, were studied under laboratory conditions. In all species, first instar nymphs did not defecate in the 30 minutes after feeding. accept artificial feeding but directly humans. Nymph adult had a higher defecation index (DI) than other species; third highest DI=1.62. instars, most individuals accepted food £ 3 finished less 15
