Trypanosoma cruzi: Kinetics of metacyclogenesis in adult and nymphal Panstrongylus megistus [PDF]
Adult triatomine insects, Panstrongylus megistus, naturally infected with the protozoa, Trypanosoma cruzi, contained significantly more metacyclic trypomastigote forms in their digestive tracts than did P. megistus nymphs. Metacyclics were scarce in all stages of triatomines fed once on infected mammalian hosts and subsequently starved.
