Sexual behaviour and stridulation during mating in Triatoma infestans (Hemiptera: Reduviidae).

Factors affecting mating behaviour in the bug Triatoma infestans were quantitatively studied in the laboratory. Experimental conditions were established so that the probability of copulation increased with the time elapsed since the first adult meal. Copulatory attempts by males did not vary as a fu...
