Abstract
The systematic positon of Trypanosoma rangeli is reconsidered and the creation of a new subgenus. Tejeraia, is proposed to remove this trypanosome from the subgenus Herptosoma of the section Stercoraria. The characteristics described for the proposed subgenus indicate that it must be located in the section Salivaria rather than in the Stercoraria. The evidence supporting this proposition is discussed in the text.Keywords
