  abstract = {{K}issing-bugs ({T}riatominae) are being increasingly reported as a biting nuisance in {SE} {A}sia, with severe bite reactions sometimes leading to anaphylactic shock. {I}n addition, they pose a risk for vector-borne transmission of trypanosomiasis, with potential diagnostic difficulties due to the range of trypanosome species in the region. {H}ere, we review available information about {T}riatominae in {A}sia, and present additional comparisons using morphometry, cytogenetics, and new {DNA} sequence data, to clarify their relationship with each other and with the better known {A}merican species. {W}e deduce that all {A}sian {T}riatominae have probably derived from forms originally spread during the 15-18th centuries on sailing ships, from the area that now forms the southern {USA}.},
