Reviewer name and names of any other individual's who aided in reviewer	Mary Ann Tuli
Do you understand and agree to our policy of having open and named reviews, and having your review included with the published papers. (If no, please inform the editor that you cannot review this manuscript.)	Yes
Is the language of sufficient quality?	No
Please add additional comments on language quality to clarify if needed	The language is fine, but it is hard to make complete sense of as there are lots of different dates and numbers (of records) and names for the different datasets.
Are all data available and do they match the descriptions in the paper?	Yes
Additional Comments
Are the data and metadata consistent with relevant minimum information or reporting standards? See GigaDB checklists for examples <a href="http://gigadb.org/site/guide" target="_blank">http://gigadb.org/site/guide</a>	Yes
Additional Comments
Is the data acquisition clear, complete and methodologically sound?	No
Additional Comments	As above, I think it is partly a language issue, but I think this section could be made more clear to readers. Maybe splitting the section "Description of new American triatomine occurrence data" into smaller sub-sections would make it easier to read and follow. It is very rich in names, dates and numbers.
Is there sufficient detail in the methods and data-processing steps to allow reproduction?	Yes
Additional Comments
Is there sufficient data validation and statistical analyses of data quality?	Yes
Additional Comments
Is the validation suitable for this type of data?	Yes
Additional Comments
Is there sufficient information for others to reuse this dataset or integrate it with other data?	Yes
Additional Comments
Any Additional Overall Comments to the Author	I believe all the information is available, but its value is somewhat lost in the presentation.
Recommendation	Minor Revision
