Abstract
Clinical, parasitological and serological findings ofTrypanosoma evansi infections in buffaloes (Bubalis bubalis) from north-eastern Thailand are reported. The overall infection rate was found to be around 20% with a distinct peak of acute infections during the rainy season. The disease is aggravated by normally well tolerated concomitant infections such as liver fluke infestations and by other stress factors. Les observations cliniques, parasitologiques et sérologiques sur les infections àTrypanosoma evansi chez les buffles (Bubalis bubalis) dans le Nord-Est de la Thaïlande sont rapportées. Le taux général d'infection se situe autour de 20 p. 100 avec un pic distinct d'infections aigues pendant la saison des pluies.
