Se realizaron bioensayos con los extractos etanólicos de las especies vegetales Annona muricata, Mammea americana, Melia azedarach, Ricinus communis y los insecticidas nicotina y deltametrina sobre ninfas y huevos de R. prolixus y R. pallescens. Se determinó la toxicidad, repelencia y actividad ovicida. Los valores mas bajos de CL50 expresados en %p/p obtenidos respectivamente para R. prolixus y R. pallescens fueron: A. muricata 1,02 y 1,74; M. azedarach 1,77 y 1,74. El extracto de M. americana presentó menor actividad insecticida sobre las dos especies de triatominos: CL50 4,33 y 2,61. La repelencia osciló entre 51 y 58% y la eclosión de los huevos fue inhibida entre 10 y 25%. Los resultados de toxicidad se consideran poco promisorios por ser superiores a la concentración máxima de 5.000 ppm recomendada por la GTZ. Extracts from vegetal species Annona muricata, Mammea americana, Melia azedarach, Ricinus communis and the insecticides nicotine and delthametrin were tested for repellent, ovicidal and insecticidal properties against eggs and nymphs of Rhodnius prolixus and R. pallescens. The lowest values of LC50 in %W/W to R. prolixus and R. pallescens was: A. muricata 1.02 - 1.74 and M. azedarach 1.77 - 1.74. The extract of M. americana had a weaker effect on the triatominae species LC50 4.33 and 2.61. Repellency fluctuated between 51- 58% and hatching was inhibited between 10- 25%. Toxicity tests were considered less promising as being above the maximum concentration recommended by GTZ.
