Description
Zazueta-Islas and a large team detect kinetoplastid parasites in ticks and fleas from dogs and humans in Mexico, in a study from twenty twenty-four. These single-celled parasites spread through blood-feeding arthropods. Companion animal parasites are neglected in surveillance despite human closeness. Five hundred thirty-seven specimens from fifteen states are tested molecularly.
Two parasite agents appear in one tick species. A third appears in the common cat flea. Six ectoparasite taxa are covered by the sampling. Genetic records of these parasites in such hosts are firsts for Mexico. Pet-linked vectors deserve a place in parasite monitoring.
