Present knowledge on reservoir hosts of Trypanosoma rhodesiense, T. gambiense and T. brucei in Africa and T. cruzi and T. rangeli in America and experimental transmission studies of T. cruzi in mammalian hosts and in lizards is discussed. The difficulty in differentiating the African species of human trypanosomes, which appear not to be host specific, is a major obstacle to epizootiological studies.
