The continual rise of anthropogenic disturbance of ecosystems has been associated with an increasing incidence of emerging diseases. The largest amount of data on emerging diseases relates to bacterial and viral pathogens, but there is a lack of parasite data, especially from wildlife. Monitoring wildlife parasitic diseases should be considered a priority, especially in high biodiversity regions with strong anthropogenic impacts, like Mexico, where the wildlife/livestock/human interface is associated with increased risk of disease transmission. Mexico belongs to the top-ten megadiverse countries and is located between two biogeographic regions. This situation makes Mexico a favourable region for the spillover of animal pathogens to human beings, causing pandemics, such as the one recently caused by influenza virus A (H1N1). The current state of knowledge of Mexican wildlife parasites is scarce and focuses mainly in Neotropical fauna. Moreover, this knowledge is heterogeneous for different parasite groups, especially concerning their pathologic effects and epidemiology. The goals of this review are to compile information on Mexican wildlife parasites and to identify knowledge gaps in order to stimulate research on pending epidemiological, public health, ecological and pathological areas, and to encourage the creation of more specialized groups from the perspective of the One-Health concept.

我们对人为干扰的高生物多样性地区的野生动物寄生虫了解多少？墨西哥的特殊情况

生态系统人为干扰的持续增加与新发疾病的发病率增加有关。关于新兴疾病的最大数据量与细菌和病毒病原体有关，但缺乏寄生虫数据，尤其是来自野生动物的数据。监测野生动物寄生虫病应被视为优先事项，特别是在具有强烈人为影响的生物多样性高的地区，如墨西哥，那里的野生动物/牲畜/人类界面与疾病传播风险增加有关。墨西哥属于十大生物多样性国家，位于两个生物地理区域之间。这种情况使墨西哥成为动物病原体向人类外溢的有利地区，导致大流行，例如最近由甲型流感病毒（H1N1）引起的大流行。目前对墨西哥野生动物寄生虫的了解很少，主要集中在新热带动物群中。此外，对于不同的寄生虫群体，这种知识是异质的，特别是关于它们的病理效应和流行病学。本次审查的目标是汇编有关墨西哥野生动物寄生虫的信息并确定知识差距，以促进对未决流行病学、公共卫生、生态和病理领域的研究，并鼓励从“一”的角度创建更多专业小组-健康概念。
