This study reports the first occurrence of Psammolestes tertius (Hemiptera, Reduviidae, Triatominae) in the state of Sergipe, Brazil.
In 2020, 95 specimens were collected from the municipality of Porto da Folha, Sergipe, Brazil.
This finding expands the geographical distribution of the species from 15 states in Brazil to 16 and increases the biodiversity of triatomines in the state of Sergipe.
The presence of P. tertius in the state of Sergipe demonstrated a wider distribution of this species in northeastern Brazil.
本研究报告了巴西塞尔希培州首次出现 Psammolestes tertius(半翅目,红蝽科,三锥虫科)。
2020 年,在巴西塞尔希培州的波多法利亚市共采集了 95 个标本。
这一发现将该物种的地理分布范围从巴西的 15 个州扩大到了 16 个州,并增加了塞尔希培州三锥虫的生物多样性。
P. tertius 在塞尔希培州的存在表明该物种在巴西北部的分布范围更广。
