Trypanosomatid
Trypanosomatids are a group of kinetoplastid protozoa distinguished by having only a single flagellum. The name is derived from the Greek trypano and soma because of the corkscrew-like motion of some trypanosomatid species. All members are exclusively parasitic, found primarily in insects. A few genera have life-cycles involving a secondary host, which may be a vertebrate, invertebrate or plant. These include several species that cause major diseases in humans. The three major human diseases caused by trypanosomatids are; African trypanosomiasis, South American trypanosomiasis, and leishmaniasis. The family is known from fossils of the extinct genus Paleoleishmania preserved in Burmese amber dating to the Albian and Dominican amber from the Burdigalian of Hispaniola. The genus Trypanosoma is also represented in Dominican amber in the extinct species Trypanosoma antiquus.
