The specific concept of two triatominae species of epidemiological importance in the Mato Grosso Region (Brasil), Triatoma guazu Lent & Wygodzinsky, 1979 and Triatoma jurbergi Carcavallo, Galvão & Lent, 1998, the antenniferous tubercle and the four antennal segments of nymphs from the first to fifth instar were morphologically compared by scanning electron microscopy. The main differences observed were that the antenniferous tubercle in T. guazu did not present a smaller tubercle in the base of the larger tubercle. The first antennal segment in the fifth instar had sensilla distributed with an alternating array and the trichobothria in the first instar had half of its length reaching the third antennal segment. However, in T. jurbergi the antenniferous tubercle had two smaller tubercles in the base of the two larger tubercles. The first antennal segment in the fifth instar presents sensilla distributed in pairs, and the trichobothria in the first instar has only a small portion of the structure reaching the third antennal segment. These structures differentiated the nymphs of T. guazu and T. jurbergi.
