From successive 24-hourly dissections of non-teneral field-caught Glossina tachinoides Westwood which had fed on a guinea-pig in the laboratory, the progressive movement of a bloodmeal through the midgut was monitored and five stages (categories) in the trophic cycle identified. The frequency distribution in these trophic categories of G.tachinoides subsequently caught in the peridomestic agro-ecosystem at Orie-Orba near Nsukka by means of the biconical trap revealed that males and females had fed 2.8 +/- 0.4 and 2.4 +/- 0.4 days respectively preceding their capture.
从在实验室以豚鼠为食的野外捕获的未成熟的拟舌蝇（Glossina tachinoides Westwood）连续24小时解剖样本中，监测了血餐在中肠中的逐步移动，并确定了营养循环中的五个阶段（类别）。随后，通过双锥形诱捕器在Nsukka附近的Orie-Orba的家庭周围农业生态系统中捕获的拟舌蝇的这些营养类别中的频率分布显示，雄性和雌性在捕获前分别进食了2.8±0.4天和2.4±0.4天。
