Examination of blood films for trypanosomes in primates housed at the Tulane University Delta Regional Primate Research Center showed that 47% (32/68) of the Bolivian Saimiri sciureus and 51% (68/135) of Brazilian Saguinus mistax harbored one or more types: Trypanosoma (Schizotrypanum) cruzi in 6% to 7% and Trypanosoma (Herpetosoma) spp. or Trypanosoma (Megatrypanum) spp. in 39% and 45%, respectively. Trypanosomes were isolated from a sample of the infected monkeys and morphobiological studies were carried out. Both T. cruzi and Trypanosoma rangeli were demonstrated. The transmission of T. rangeli by Rhodnius prolixus, Rhodnius neglectus, and Triatoma infestans was assessed: only R. prolixus transmitted the infection by bite. T. rangeli has not been found previously in Bolivia, nor has any trypanosome been reported previously in Saguinus mistax.
对杜兰大学三角洲地区灵长类动物研究中心饲养的灵长类动物血涂片进行锥虫检查发现，47%（32/68）的玻利维亚松鼠猴和51%（68/135）的巴西白喉卷尾猴携带一种或多种类型的锥虫：克氏锥虫（裂殖锥虫属）占6%至7%，赫氏锥虫属或巨锥虫属锥虫分别占39%和45%。从感染猴子的样本中分离出锥虫并进行形态生物学研究。结果证实了克氏锥虫和兰氏锥虫的存在。评估了长红猎蝽、忽视猎蝽和大锥蝽对兰氏锥虫的传播情况：只有长红猎蝽通过叮咬传播感染。此前在玻利维亚未发现兰氏锥虫，白喉卷尾猴中也未曾有过锥虫的报道。
