Revisiting the Hybridization Processes in the <i>Triatoma brasiliensis</i> Complex (Hemiptera, Triatominae): Reproductive Isolation between <i>Triatoma petrocchiae</i> and <i>T. b. brasiliensis</i> and <i>T. lenti</i>

<i>Triatoma petrocchiae</i> is a species morphologically similar to <i>T. b. brasiliensis</i> (which resulted in a synonymization event); despite this similarity, genetic, morphological, and experimental crossbreeding studies confirmed the specific status of <i>T. petro...
