Parabelminus yurupucu Lent & Wygodzinsky, 1979 View in CoL
Distribution. Bahia.
Public health importance. In the laboratory, nymphs fed on mice. No reports of infection with T. cruzi ( Lent and Wygodzinsky 1979) . As the species is rare, it has no importance as the vectors of Chagas disease.
Remarks. Most specimens collected were found in epiphytic bromeliads, which in some cases contained rodent nests, and frogs and geckos also occurred ( Lent and Wygodzinsky 1979).
