Description: Two areas from a blood smear from a patient with African trypanosomiasis (sleeping sickness). Thin blood smear stained with Giemsa. Typical trypomastigote stages (the only stages found in patients), with a posterior kinetoplast, a centrally located nucleus, an undulating membrane, and an anterior flagellum. The two Trypanosoma brucei species that cause human trypanosomiasis, T. b. gambiense and T. b. rhodesiense, are indistinguishable morphologically.
