Abstract
The present work reports the first record of Eratyrus mucronatus Stål, 1859 and Panstrongylus rufotuberculatus (Champion, 1899) (Hemiptera, Reduviidae, Triatominae) in a riverside community of Rio Negro in the Brazilian Amazon. Health promotion activities were carried out with the population and agent to combat endemic diseases. The entomological findings reinforce the importance of community participation in the surveillance and control of triatomines. The use of knowledge dissemination actions on Chagas disease and vectors strengthened the entomological surveillance in the middle Rio Negro, Amazonas state.
