A New Species of Plasmodium of the Subgenus Novyella Infecting White‐Shouldered Fire‐Eyes (Pyriglena leucoptera) (Aves: Thamnophilidae) in Brazil

Integrative Zoology, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 192-202, January 2026.
South America has a remarkable genetic diversity of avian haemosporidians, yet only a few species have been described combining molecular and morphological data. This study introduces Plasmodium (Novyella) pyriglenae sp. nov., a new species infecting the white‐shouldered fire‐eye (Pyriglena leucoptera) in Brazil.

High Abundance of Haemoproteus Parasites in Culicoides (Diptera, Ceratopogonidae), with a Confirmation of Culicoides reconditus as a New Vector of These Avian Blood Parasites

Insects
Haemoproteus parasites are the most diverse among Haemosporida. However, their natural vectors (Culicoides) are still poorly investigated and were identified for only a few parasite species and lineages. The application of an integrative approach (insect

Plasmodium spp. and Haemoproteus spp. infection in birds of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest detected by microscopy and polymerase chain reaction

Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira, 2015
In recent years haemosporidian infection by protozoa of the genus Plasmodium and Haemoproteus, has been considered one of the most important factors related to the extinction and/or population decline of several species of birds worldwide.

Delineation of the Genera Haemoproteus and Plasmodium Using RNA-Seq and Multi-gene Phylogenetics

, 2018
Members of the order Haemosporida are protist parasites that infect mammals, reptiles and birds. This group includes the causal agents of malaria, Plasmodium parasites, the genera Leucocytozoon and Fallisia, as well as the species rich genus Haemoproteus

The Study of Biting Midges Culicoides Latreille, 1809 (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) and the Prevalence of Haemoproteus Kruse, 1890 (Haemosporida: Haemoproteidae) on the Curonian Spit of the Baltic Sea

Diversity
The part of the life cycle concerning the vectors of avian haemosporidians of the genus Haemoproteus remains only partially studied. This work presents the results of capturing and analyzing female Culicoides biting midges for Haemoproteus infection ...

A new blood parasite of leaf warblers: molecular characterization, phylogenetic relationships, description and identification of vectors

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Background Blood parasites of the genus Haemoproteus Kruse, 1890 are cosmopolitan, might be responsible for mortality in non-adapted birds, and often kill blood-sucking insects. However, this group remains insufficiently investigated in the wild. This is

Molecular and morphological description of Haemoproteus (Parahaemoproteus) bukaka (species nova), a haemosporidian associated with the strictly Australo-Papuan host Subfamily Cracticinae. [PDF]

, 2016
Linking morphological studies with molecular phylogeny is important to understanding cryptic speciation and the evolution of host-parasite relationships. Haemosporidian parasites of the Australo-Papuan bird family Artamidae are relatively unstudied. Only
