Abstract

AbstractTrypanosomatid flagellates (Phytomonas sp.) were detected in the sieve tubes of ‘hartrot'‐diseased coconut palms (Cocos nucifera) and in the laticifers of Cecropia palmata and Euphorbia hirta plants occurring as weeds in and around coconut plantations with diseased palms. The possible interrelationship and transmission by insect vectors of these protozoa is discussed.
