For the ‘whole’, ‘semi-whole’, ‘body parts’, ‘eggs’ and ‘DNA’ columns: the numbers within parenthesis indicate specimens from laboratory stocks (i.e., reared in insectaries), whereas numbers outside the parenthesis indicate the number of specimens caught in sylvatic or domestic/peridomestic environments in the field. * Indicates that 1 egg of Eratyrusmucronatus is from an unknown origin. aAmong the 1,736 body parts of Panstrongylusmegistus, 1,715 are independent specimens (i.e., body parts not associated with either a semi-whole triatomine or other body parts or DNA), 20 body parts are non-independent specimens (i.e., two body parts from each of 10 different individuals for which there is no associated semi-whole specimen), and one is a body part from a single semi-whole individual. bAmong the 19 body parts of Triatomamelanocephala, 18 are independent specimens, and one is a non-independent specimen of one semi-whole individual. cAmong the 103 body parts of Triatomavitticeps, 73 are independent specimens, 30 are non-independent specimens from 30 semi-whole individuals. dAmong the 141 body parts of Triatomainfestans, one is an independent specimen, and 140 are non-independent specimens (i.e., two body parts from each of 70 different individuals for which there is no associated semi-whole specimen). eAll 15 body parts of T.lenti are non-independent specimens from 15 semi-whole individuals. fAmong the 89 body parts of Triatomamelanica, 3 are independent specimens, and 86 are non-independent specimens (i.e., two body parts from each of different 43 individuals for which there is no associated semi-whole specimen). gAmong the 710 body parts of Rhodniusnasutus, 304 are independent specimens, and 406 are non-independent specimens (i.e., two body parts from each of 203 different individuals for which there is no associated semi-whole specimen). hAmong the 81 body parts of Rhodniusrobustus, 35 are independent specimens, and 46 are non-independent specimens (i.e., two body parts from each of 23 different individuals for which there is no associated semi-whole specimen).
