Trypanosoma cruzi over the ocean: Insular zones of Chile with presence of infected vector Mepraia species.

Acta tropica - 1 Aug 2017

Rives-Blanchard Ninette, Torres-Pérez Fernando, Ortiz Silvia, Solari Aldo, Campos-Soto Ricardo

Abstract excerpt

Chagas disease is one of the main zoonosis mediated by vectors in America. The etiologic agent Trypanosoma cruzi infects different mammals and is transmitted principally by the subfamily Triatominae. Mepraia is a genus endemic to Chile, responsible for transmitting T. cruzi in the sylvatic cycle. Mepraia includes three species: M. gajardoi and M. parapatrica inhabit coastal areas, while M. spinolai inhabits...
