In Crocodylidae family three trypanosomes species were described,  T. grayi  in African crocodilian and  T. cecili  and  Trypanosoma  sp. in Caimans species from Brazil.  T. grayi  was transmitted by tsetse flies and the vector of Brazilian caimans trypanosomes is unknown. We characterized first Brazilian trypanosome isolated in spectacled caiman ( Caiman crocodilus ) from Mato Grosso State in Brazil. Morphological findings in epimastigotes forms from axenic culture showed high similarity with  Trypanosoma  sp. described in  Caiman yacare  from Brazilian Pantanal. Phylogenetic studies performed with SSU rDNA and gGAPDH (glyceraldehydes-3-phosphato dehydrogenase glycosomal) clustering in  T. grayi  Clade and together to genotype Cay 01 from  Trypanosoma  unnamed species isolated in  C. yacare . This is the first isolate of  Trypanosoma  sp. from  C. crocodilus  and the phylogenetic position with isolates in  C. yacare  from Pantanal region and demonstrates the low host specificity of cayman trypanosomes in Brazil.
