Conteúdo: 	Equine trypanosomosis caused by Trypanosoma evansi is known in the Pantanal and subtropical areas of Argentina as "Mal de Caderas". T. evansi has the widest distribution of all species of trypanosomes and the greatest range of mammalian hosts. During the study of a wild reservoir of Trypanosoma evansi in the Pantanal, Brazil, forty coatis (Nasua nasua) were caught in three ranches located in the Nhecolandia subregion of Pantanal. Hematologic and blood chemistry values observed in infected coatis (30.0%) are given in table. These data are indicative of the importance of coatis as a wild reservoir and the importance of this parasite as causing disease in coatis. The nature of the blood and chemistry alterations need to be elucidated and mechanisms proposed. This is the first report of T. evansi causing disease in coatis.
