A new species of the genus Laporte, 1832 (Hemiptera, Reduviidae) is described based on specimens collected in the department of Huehuetenango, Guatemala. is closely related to (Latreille, 1811), with the following main morphological differences: lighter color; smaller overall size, including head length; and width and length of the pronotum. Natural (Chagas, 1909) infection, coupled with its presence in domestic habitats, makes this species a potentially important vector of in Guatemala.
基于在危地马拉韦韦特南戈省采集的标本,描述了拉波特属(1832年)的一个新物种(半翅目,猎蝽科)。该物种与(拉特雷耶,1811年)密切相关,主要形态差异如下:颜色较浅;整体尺寸较小,包括头部长度;以及前胸背板的宽度和长度。自然感染克氏锥虫(查加斯,1909年),再加上它在家庭栖息地的存在,使得该物种成为危地马拉锥虫潜在的重要传播媒介。
