Note: Pinto (1930) was omitted among the references given by Costa Lima (1940) for Reduviidae as well as those of “Florêncio Gomes”. When dealing in general with species of Triatominae that feed on birds, Neiva & Lent (1936: 157) record T. sordida as living in birds’ nests. The bird’s nest mentioned by Neiva and Lent (1936) for T. sordida belongs to the “sabiá, Turdus sp. ” seeing that Lent knew of the record on Turdus sp. by Gomes (1916). At that time (1936), the record of Gomes (1916) was the first and the only known of T. sordida in a bird’s nest. Thus Hicks (1959) records the same association five times: Pinto (1930) [birds’ nests], Gomes (1916) [“sabiá ( Turdus sp. )”], Costa Lima (1940) [birds´nests], Lent (1935) [ Turdus sp. ], and Neiva & Lent (1936) [birds’ nests].
