Abstract

Emerging zoonotic malaria caused by Plasmodium knowlesi, Plasmodium cynomolgi and Plasmodium inui occurred in humans amid a decline of malaria prevalence in Thailand during the past decade. Diagnosis of non-human primate malaria in ecotourists is challenging. Molecular diagnosis seems to be mandatory such as species-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and targeted amplicon deep sequencing.
