Seventy-two percent of 200 eggs hatched with an average incubation period of 20.6 days. Seventyfive nymphs (32.5%) completed their development to adult stadium with an average developmental time of 204.6 days. Averagenumber of blood meals per stadium was 1.4. Percent mortality for the five instars was 12.5, 10.3, 8.9, 11.6, and 17.5,respectively. Number of eggs laid per female in a 9-month period averaged 1137.2±55.7. Times per stadium to get a completeblood meals averaged 10 min and up, whereas postdefecation times averaged less than 10 min in whole the stadia. Accordingto laboratory data, M. pallidipennis could be considered a potentially efficient vector for the transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi(Chagas) to human populations in Mexico. 2004 artículo científico 0430-8603 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=42443307 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=424 Folia Entomológica Mexicana application/pdf Sociedad Mexicana de Entomología, A.C.
