abstract = "The existence and uniqueness of travelling-wave solutions is investigated for a system of two reactiondiffusion equations where one diffusion constant vanishes. The system arises in population dynamics and epidemiology. Travelling-wave solutions satisfy a three-dimensional system about (u, u
,
), whose equilibria lie on the u-axis. Our main result shows that, given any wave speed c > 0, the unstable manifold at any point (a, 0, 0) on the u-axis, where a
(0,
) and
is a positive number, provides a travelling-wave solution connecting another point (b, 0, 0) on the u-axis, where b := b(a)
(
,
), and furthermore, b(·) : (0,

(

) is continuous and bijective.",
