The feeding habits of Glossina morsitans morsitans in the Eastern Province of Zambia were studied. A total of 687 meals were identified. Results show that 75.1% of the meals were taken on cattle. These results are discussed in relation to the published data on feeding patterns of Glossina morsitans morsitans and the control of tsetse or tsetse-transmitted trypanosomosis in the study area.
