Abstract
dc.description.abstract
In this study, we report the first record of mites of the genus Leptus (Latreille, 1796)
(Trombidiformes: Erythraeidae) found on the triatomine Mepraia spinolai (Maza, Gajardo and
Jorg, 1940) (Hemiptera: Rudiviidae), one of the three endemic triatomine species responsible
for the transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi (Trypanosomatida) (Chagas, 1908), the causative
agent of Chagas disease, in Chile.
