description BACKGROUND: We report the presence of Triatoma longipennis for the first time in two localities in Hidalgo, Mexico. METHODS: This study was conducted at Tecozautla municipality, Hidalgo. Collection was performed in April 2022. RESULTS: We collected eight triatomines from Guadalupe: two fourth-instar nymphs, three fifth-instar nymphs, one female, and two males. In San Miguel Caltepantla, a female was collected inside a dwelling. One sample tested positive for Trypanosoma cruzi. CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest the need to investigate the dynamics of this species with respect to the inhabitants of the study area.
