Abstract: Sporozoites of 3 isolates of Plasmodium cynomolgi dissected from the salivary glands of Anopheles dirus and Anopheles quadrimaculatus were injected intravenously into 9 New World monkeys. Liver stage parasites were demonstrated in all 9 animals; 7 of these animals also produced blood stages after prepatent periods of 9 to 23 days.
