Mansonella is a genus of parasitic nematodes.[1] It includes three species that are responsible for the disease mansonelliasis: Mansonella ozzardi, M. perstans, and M. streptocerca.[2] A potential fourth species has been identified in Gabon in 2015 and proposed as a new species Mansonella sp. "DEUX".[3] Whole-genome sequences from Mansonella perstans, Mansonella ozzardi, and the newly proposed species Mansonella sp. "DEUX" have been assembled.[4][5]
