Abstract

Midgut of G. m. morsitans infected with T. (N.) congolense after a single infective blood meal was examined using the electron microscope. Trypanosomes were found within the anterior midget epithelial cells of tsetse flies. They are located close to basement lamina, nucleus and microvilli of the cells. Some intracellular parasites are unharmed, others are in degeneration.
