| trypanosoma cruzi | The agent of south american trypanosomiasis or chagas disease. Its vertebrate hosts are man and various domestic and wild animals. Insects of several species are vectors. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Trypanosoma dimorphon | An African species found in horses, cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, and dogs, formerly thought to be the same as Trypanosoma congolense but now recognised as a distinct and more pathogenic species in cattle, sheep, and dogs; it is spread by tsetse flies across central Africa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Trypanosoma equinum | A species that causes mal de caderas of horses in Central and South America; except for being akinetoplastic, it is transmitted mechanically by bloodsucking flies. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Trypanosoma equiperdum | A species that causes dourine. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Trypanosoma escomelis | The agent of south american trypanosomiasis or chagas disease. Its vertebrate hosts are man and various domestic and wild animals. Insects of several species are vectors. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Trypanosoma evansi | A parasite chiefly of cattle, camels, horses, and dogs, causing surra and murrina; it is transmitted mechanically by tabanid and other bloodsucking flies. Synonym: Trypanosoma hippicum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Trypanosoma gambiense | A haemoflagellate subspecies of parasitic protozoa that causes gambian or west african sleeping sickness in humans. The vector host is usually the tsetse fly (glossina). (12 Dec 1998) |
| Trypanosoma hippicum | A parasite chiefly of cattle, camels, horses, and dogs, causing surra and murrina; it is transmitted mechanically by tabanid and other bloodsucking flies. Synonym: Trypanosoma hippicum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Trypanosoma hominis | A haemoflagellate subspecies of parasitic protozoa that causes gambian or west african sleeping sickness in humans. The vector host is usually the tsetse fly (glossina). (12 Dec 1998) |
| Trypanosoma ignotum | Old name for Trypanosoma simiae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| trypanosoma lewisi | A trypanosome found in the blood of adult rats and transmitted by the rat flea. It is generally non-pathogenic in adult rats but can cause lethal infection in suckling rats. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Trypanosoma melophagium | A nonpathogenic species (related to Trypanosoma theileri) found in sheep throughout the world, and probably in goats as well; the vector is Melophagus ovinus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Trypanosoma rangeli | A species that parasitises a wide variety of mammals, including humans, in South America and is transmitted by the triatomid bugs Rhodnius prolixus and Tiratoma dimidiata, and probably others; it is apparently nonpathogenic but may be pathogenic in the bug host. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Trypanosoma rhodesiense | A haemoflagellate subspecies of parasitic protozoa that causes rhodesian sleeping sickness in humans. It is carried by glossina pallidipes, g. Morsitans and occasionally other species of game-attacking tsetse flies. (12 Dec 1998) |
