1. Initial infection of the human host
The initial stage following the mosquito bite during which infection is established and from which recrudescence of infection may recrudesce
→ Click for more about this stage
2. The trophozoite stage
This is the initial growth stage where the ring form grows, often changes, and modifies the erythocyte, the characteristic morphological features of species develop during this stage.
→ Click for more about this stage
3. The schizont stage
This is the asexual replication stage that has significant variabilty as they mature, it is the stage responsible for intermittent fevers in some malaria cases.

4. The Gametocyte stage
This is the sexual replication stage with male and female parasite forms that will replicate within the mosquito, this stage may also persist following treatment.

5. Re-infection of mosquito
Sexual replication of malarial parasites occurs when gametocytes encounter conditions in the mosquito stomach - it may also be seen stored samples (exflagellation).
