In recent years, Cryptobiosis, caused by the
hemoflagellate, has been found in many fishes (Lom.
Fish
hemoflagellate parasites like Trypanosoma danilewskyi (Lom and Dykova, 1992) and Trypanoplasma borreli (Kruse et al.

In the state of Para, DEANE (1961) conducted a study on
hemoflagellates using blood smears of wild animals, including P cancrivorus and N.
vivax have shown a very high cross-reactivity, some researchers have performed studies addressing the common antigens found between these two
hemoflagellates [2, 3, 23, 24, 26].
Some piscine
hemoflagellates like Trypanosoma platessae are strictly host specific (Cotterll, 1977) while others like T.
A subcategory of the flagellate group is the
hemoflagellates which infect blood.
The next paper with a DNA-mention, dealing with clinical epidemiology about
hemoflagellates, was published six years later (Zeledon 1971).
Hemoflagellates in Cyrtodactylus kotschyi (Steindachner, 1870) (Reptilia, Gekkonidae) in Italy.
