The genus Tabanus Linnaeus has a worldwide distribution and is the richest in species; however, it probably not monophyletic. In Neotropical Region, its richness certainly underestimated, mainly due to large number of species absence recent taxonomic revisions. We describe rondoniensis sp. n. from State Rondônia, Brazil, based on conspicuous tabanid possibly related T. nebulosus group. Diagnosis, discussion illustrations are also provided.
The prevalence of CND are rocketting over the world, including in young adults. WHO estimates that more than half deaths world caused by CND. authors carried out a cross-sectional study 1,431 school children Brazilian Western Amazon, with and people aged 6 to 16 years. A random sampling 496 individuals was out. OpenEpi platform used calculate sample size, considering p<0.05 presumed 50%. applyied clinical-epidemiological questionnaire, made anthropometric measurements laboratory tests....
Trypanosomes can infect humans and animals. This is the first record of occurrence Trypanosoma evansi in Rondônia.Blood samples were collected from 7 dogs 22 humans. Furthermore, triatomines tabanids collected.It was observed that 42.8% tested positive for T. 14.3% presented mixed infection; 15% flagellates identified as cruzi TCI (3 specimens), TCI, rangeli (1 specimen), one with TCV. Two infected theileri.These findings may benefit vector control strategies.
