Spatio-temporal analysis of the role of faecal depositions in aggregation behaviour of the triatomine Rhodnius prolixus

Several triatomine species aggregate over conspecific faeces. In some domestic species, this behaviour might help individuals to find their refuges because faeces are usually deposited around such places. In the present study, the defaecation behaviour of the triatomine bug Rhodnius prolixus Stål (H...
