Vertebrate DNA sources identified in 108 pooled P. geniculatus bloodmeals from Petare, Baruta, and Sucre parishes for the MDC collection period 2009–2016.

Points in the map indicate the geographical origin of the 108 samples contributing to the 24 dissection pools used in cytb analysis. Point fill color indicates pool membership. Pools composed of T. cruzi-positive samples are outlined in black. Arrows indicate pools presenting cytb DNA from the T. cruzi reservoir species D. marsupialis and D. novemcinctus. Numbers in parentheses indicate the number of pools in which the corresponding vertebrate blood source was detected. The map base layer represents Scene ID LC80040532015120LGN01 from the Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS C1 Level-1 dataset–courtesy of the U.S. Geological Survey.
