  abstract = {{N}utritional status relating to flight activity was investigated in natural populations of #{T}riatoma sordida$ and #{T}. guasayana$ during the dry season in the {B}olivian {C}haco. {T}he peak flight activity of both species was unimodal and covered the period 61-180 min after sunset. {T}he weight of insects was used as the indicator of nutritional status. {I}nterspecies comparisons employing the same sex and type of capture showed a higher weight for #{T}. guasayana$. {N}o significant difference according to weight was observed between flying insects and those collected in natural ecotopes (hollow trees and bromeliads). {M}ore than 87% of insects collected from natural ecotopes displayed flight ability under the study conditions, explaining their tendency to invade artificial structures during the dry season.
