Despite reptile trypanosomes forming a large group, the majority of species descriptions are data deficient, lacking key characteristic data and supporting molecular data. Reptile hosts show potential to facilitate transmission of zoonotic trypanosomiases and offer key information to understanding the genus of Trypanosoma. Several species of squamates from different localities in South Africa were screened molecularly and microscopically for trypanosomes in the present study. Based on the combination of morphological and molecular analyses, two new species of Trypanosoma, Trypanosoma (Squamatrypanum) ndumoensis n. sp. and Trypanosoma (Trypanosoma) tokoloshi n. sp., infecting South African cordylid lizards (Cordylidae: Cordylinae) are described in this study. The first molecular data for a South African reptile trypanosome is provided herewith.

两种新种 Gruby 锥虫的形态学和分子诊断，1843 年感染南非蜥蜴（Squamata：Cordylidae：Cordylinae），Trypanosoma (Squamatrypanum) ndumoensis n. sp。和锥虫 (Trypanosoma) tokoloshi n。sp。

尽管爬行动物锥虫形成了一个大类群，但大多数物种描述数据不足，缺乏关键特征数据和支持分子数据。爬行动物宿主显示出促进人畜共患锥虫病传播的潜力，并为了解锥虫属提供了关键信息。在本研究中，对来自南非不同地区的几种有鳞动物进行了分子和显微镜筛查锥虫。基于形态学和分子分析的结合，锥虫的两个新种，Trypanosoma ( Squamatrypanum ) ndumoensis n. sp。和锥虫（锥虫）托科洛希_ 本研究描述了感染南非 Cordylid 蜥蜴（Cordylidae：Cordylinae）的 Sp.。南非爬行动物锥虫的第一个分子数据在此提供。
