Distribution. Rio Grande do Sul and Mato Grosso do Sul.
Public health importance. Triatoma delpontei is an ornithophilic sylvatic species ( Salvatella Agrelo et al. 1993) and occasionally adults can be found in peridomestic habitats and in houses. It has been found naturally infected by T. cruzi ( Lent and Wygodzinsky 1979) but has no epidemiological importance.
Remarks. It is associated with parrots ( Myiopsitta monacha ). The life cycle of this triatomine was studied in the laboratory by Silva et al. (1994).
