The present vector studies show that the biting midge, Culicoides furens, serves as an intermediate host for Mansonella ozzardi in Haiti. A total of 3,430 C. furens were collected as they engorged on infected individuals. Under the maintenance conditions described herein, the microfilaria required 9 days to reach the infective stage.

[Mansonella perstans filariasis].
Parassitologia, 2008Mansonella perstans filariasis is widely present in Africa and equatorial America and its pathogenicity has been recently reconsidered. Although M. perstans infection has been considered a minor filariasis, remaining asymptomatic in most of infected subjects, more recent studies have shown that M.

Transfusional Mansonella perstans microfilariasis.
Parassitologia, 2004Mansonella perstans filariasis is widely distributed across the center of Africa and equatorial America. We describe a case of post-transfusional M. perstans microfilariasis in a young child, affected with severe Plasmodium falciparum malaria, admitted in Goundi Hospital in South of Chad. A decrease of M. perstans microfilariasis in the patient's blood

The Tail of the Mansonella Streptocerca Microfilaria
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1984Morphological studies of stained Mansonella streptocerca microfilariae from the skin of man and chimpanzees in West Africa revealed that the tail is bifid rather than blunt. This feature may be useful in characterization of related species.

Sera from individuals in an area of Haiti endemic for Mansonella ozzardi were analyzed for reactivity to antigens of Brugia pahangi, Dirofilaria immitis, Mansonella llewellyni or Ascaris lumbricoides using either an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay or an indirect immunofluorescent antibody test. IgM and IgG reactivity to all antigens was observed with

The presence of filariasis was investigated through Knott's method in 40 Curripaco Indians from communities located on the Casiquiare and Guainia Rivers in the Amazon Federal Territory of Venezuela. The results gave an 82.5% prevalence for infections with Mansonella perstans and 30% for infections with M. ozzardi (mixed infections with M. perstans). In
