  abstract = {{T}he "{T}riatoma maculata complex" is presently formed by two epidemiologically important species of {T}riatominae, {T}riatoma maculata and {T}riatoma pseudomaculata, which share morphologic and chromatic characteristics. {I}n order to clarify the systematic status and infer the evolutionary relationships of these vectors of {C}hagas disease, we performed a comparative analysis of their antennal phenotype, taking also into account {T}riatoma wygodzinskyi, a possible sister species. {T}he comparison was based on sensilla arrays on the three distal segments of the antenna. {O}ur results show a close similarity between {T} pseudomaculata and {T} wygodzinskyi antennal phenotypes, and significant differences with {T} maculata. {T}he interpopulation study reinforces the idea that {T} pseudomaculata (arboricolous species) and {T} wygodzinskyi (rupicolous species) would originate from a common ancestor.},
