| Mansonella demarquayi | A filarial parasite occurring in Yucatan, Panama, Colombia, northern Argentina, Guyana, French Guiana, and the islands of St. Vincent and Dominica, causing mansonelliasis; the microfilariae are not ensheathed, and there are no nuclei in the pointed tail; the life cycle is similar to that of Wuchereria bancrofti; humans are the only known definitive host, and the intermediate hosts are biting midges, Culicoides furens and possibly C. Paraensis. Synonym: Mansonella demarquayi, Mansonella tucumana. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Mansonella ozzardi | A filarial parasite occurring in Yucatan, Panama, Colombia, northern Argentina, Guyana, French Guiana, and the islands of St. Vincent and Dominica, causing mansonelliasis; the microfilariae are not ensheathed, and there are no nuclei in the pointed tail; the life cycle is similar to that of Wuchereria bancrofti; humans are the only known definitive host, and the intermediate hosts are biting midges, Culicoides furens and possibly C. Paraensis. Synonym: Mansonella demarquayi, Mansonella tucumana. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Mansonella perstans | The "persistent filaria," a species widely prevalent in tropical Africa and northern South America where it infects human peritoneal and other body cavities, but is non-or mildly pathogenic; characteristic subperiodic microfilariae occur in peripheral blood. It is transmitted in Africa by the biting midges Culicoides austeni and C. Grahami. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Mansonella streptocerca | A filarial species in humans that produces nonperiodic sheathless microfilariae found in the circulating blood; may cause a lichenoid condition or oedema of the skin; commonly found in the corium of the skin of west African residents and transmitted by the biting midge, Culicoides grahami. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Mansonella tucumana | A filarial parasite occurring in Yucatan, Panama, Colombia, northern Argentina, Guyana, French Guiana, and the islands of St. Vincent and Dominica, causing mansonelliasis; the microfilariae are not ensheathed, and there are no nuclei in the pointed tail; the life cycle is similar to that of Wuchereria bancrofti; humans are the only known definitive host, and the intermediate hosts are biting midges, Culicoides furens and possibly C. Paraensis. Synonym: Mansonella demarquayi, Mansonella tucumana. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mansonelliasis | Infection with nematodes of the genus mansonella. Symptoms include pruritus, headache, and articular swelling. (12 Dec 1998) |

| Mansonia | A genus of brown or black medium-sized mosquitoes (tribe Culicini), often having banded abdomen and legs; larvae and pupae have modified breathing tubes enabling them to pierce aquatic plants to obtain air. Mansonia mosquitoes are distributed worldwide and, in tropical areas, are important vectors of Brugia malayi; in some areas they also transmit Wuchereria bancrofti. Origin: P. Manson (05 Mar 2000) |
| Mansonoides | A subgenus of Mansonia. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Manson's s. |
infection with flukes of the species Schistosoma mansoni, which live mainly in the inferior and superior mesenteric veins but migrate to deposit their eggs in venules, primarily of the large intestine. Eggs lodging in the liver may lead to peripheral fibrosis, hepatosplenomegaly, and ascites. Called also Manson's disease.
