Seasonality, parity rates and transmission indices of Mansonella ozzardi (Manson) (Nematoda: Onchocercidae) by Cerqueirellum argentiscutum (Shelley & Luna Dias) (Diptera: Simulidae) in a lower Solimões River community, Amazonas, Brazil Sazonalidade, taxa de paridade e índices de transmissão de Mansonella ozzardi (Manson) (Nematoda: Onchocercidae) por Cerqueirellum argentiscutum (Shelley & Luna Dias) (Diptera: Simuliidae) em uma comunidade do baixo rio Solimões, Amazonas, Brasil

Mansonella ozzardi is transmitted by two dipterian families, Ceratopogonidae (midges) and Simuliidae (black flies). In Brazil, black flies are vectors for this filariasis until now. In this paper, we determined the seasonality, parity capacity and parasitic infection rate of Cerqueirellum argentiscu...
