Crithidia luciliae is a flagellate parasitic excavates known to use the housefly Musca domestica as a host. As part of the family of Trypanosomatidae, they are characterised by the presence of a kinetoplast; a complex network of interlocking circular dsDNA molecules. The presence of this kinetoplast means they are important in the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythamatosus (SLE).
