Abstract：
:Eighty Leishmania isolates from patients who contracted cutaneous leishmaniasis in the Manaus region, Amazonas State, Brazil, were identified as Leishmania (Viannia) guyanensis by the electrophoretic profiles of six enzymes. None reacted with the species-specific monoclonal antibody B19. Two L. (V.) guyanensis subpopulations were detected with the monoclonals B2 and B12. The lack of B19 expression by the L. (V.) guyanensis strains in the present study contrasts with that of the vast majority of the strains of the same parasite from eastern Amazonia and French Guyana that express the epitope.
