Glossary

Arthropod-borne (arbo) pathogens:

Infectious agent that are transmitted to a vertebrate host by blood-feeding insects (lice, fleas, sand flies, mosquitoes, biting midges, etc.) or other hematophagous arthropods (such as ticks and mites).

Biological vectors:

Vectors in whom the infectious agent develop and multiply before being transmitted to the next host.

Cercaria:

In trematodes – larval stage, mostly motile, produced from the sporocyst or redia stage.

Conjunctival pouches:

Sacs formed from folds of the whitish tissue that surrounds the eyes, the conjunctiva.

Definitive host:

The host in which sexual reproduction of the parasite occur.

Enzootic disease:

Endemic diseases among animals. These diseases are normally present in a certain area or a certain animal population and reflect a relatively stable relationship between the infectious agent and the animals affected by it.

Epimastigote:

One of the forms in which parasites of the family Trypanosomatidae may appear. It is...
