Resumen
Lent y Wigodzinsky (1979) informaron sólo de dos especies domésticas de triatominos [Triatoma dimidiata (Latreille 1811) y Rhodnius prolixus (Stal 1859)] y una especie de silvestre [Panstrongylus geniculatus (Latreille 1811)] en Nicaragua. La presencia en el país del insecto posteriormente denominado Triatoma dimidiata fue registrada por primera vez en 1535 (Oviedo y Valde's, 1944). Neiva (1914) también hizo referencia a Nicaraguan Tri. dimidiata, señalando que G. C. Champion observó esta especie en dormitorios en Nicaragua y que F. C. Browne Webber, en Managua, capturó un macho adulto mientras se alimentaba de un hombre.
