Abstract
The colonized midge, Culicoides variipennis, is shown to be a competent laboratory host for the Amazon form of Mansonella ozzardi. It raises the possibility that certain Culicoides spp. in the Amazon region may support development of the parasite and possibly play a role in the natural transmission cycle.
摘要
被感染的蠓，即库蠓，被证明是奥氏曼森线虫亚马逊型在实验室中的适宜宿主。这增加了一种可能性，即亚马逊地区的某些库蠓物种可能支持该寄生虫的发育，并可能在自然传播循环中发挥作用。
