  1. Triatomines corresponding to Triatoma brasiliensis (25Tb and 35Tb) and T. pseudomaculata (17Tp and 19Tp) were collected in peridomestic habitats from Russas (Ceará, Brazil). The numbers in the table indicate the absolute number of times each genus was detected in each sample. Bold names with an asterisk indicate bacterial genera belonging to the Corynebacterineae suborder.
