A blood-feeding insect, also called a kissing bug or assassin bug, with a cone-shaped head and a long snout for piercing skin.
From 'cone' plus 'nose,' literally describing the cone-shaped head and prominent pointed snout that gives the insect its distinctive appearance.
Conenose bugs got the nickname 'kissing bugs' because they often bite people's faces at night, and they can carry Chagas disease parasites—a genuinely dangerous pest found throughout the Americas.
