Fig. 1: reproduction of the original drawings of the first description of Trypanosoma cruzi by Carlos Chagas in 1909 where developmental stages  found in both the invertebrate and invertebrate hosts were seen.
Fig.  2:  high  resolution  scanning  electron  microscopy  of  an  epimas- epimas-tigote  form  of  Trypanosoma  cruzi  showing  the  cytostome  (C),  the  flagellum (F) and the flagellar pocket (FP)
Fig.  4:  deep-etching  view  revealing  portions  of  the  plasma  mem- mem-brane (PM) and the underlying layer of sub-pellicular microtubules  showing connections between them (arrows)
Fig. 8: different view of the flagellum of trypanosomatids as seen in longitudinal (a, d) and transversal (b, c) views of thin sections and replicas  of quick-frozen, freeze-fractured, deep-etched and rotary repilicated samples (e)
