Molecular characterization and morphological description of cryptic haemoproteids in the laughingthrushes (Leiothrichidae) in the western and eastern Himalaya, India [version 1; referees: 2 approved]

Wellcome Open Research, 2018
Background: Laughingthrushes (family: Leiothrichidae) consists of diverse and widespread species found in the Indian subcontinent but there is a lack of information on their avian haemosporidians.  Methods: We sampled 231 laughingthrushes of 8 species in

New Haemoproteus parasite of parrots, with remarks on the virulence of haemoproteids in naive avian hosts.

, 2017
Haemoproteus infections can cause fatal disease in parrots (Psittaciformes), one of the most endangered groups of birds. The great diversity of parrots in tropical and subtropical ecosystems has been markedly understudied in terms of their parasite ...

Habitat fragmentation and ecological traits influence the prevalence of avian blood parasites in a tropical rainforest landscape. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
In the tropical rainforests of northern Australia, we investigated the effects of habitat fragmentation and ecological parameters on the prevalence of blood-borne parasites (Plasmodium and Haemoproteus) in bird communities.

Unravelling the patterns of exo-erythrocytic development of Haemoproteus parasites (Haemoproteidae, Haemosporida), with a case of abortive tissue stages in a naturally infected bird.

International Journal of Parasitology
Haemoproteus species (Haemosporida, Haemoproteidae) are cosmopolitan blood parasites that affect bird fitness and health. Recent discoveries based on the application of molecular markers showed that exo-erythrocytic or tissue stages of haemoproteids ...

Haemoparasites in endemic and non-endemic passerine birds from central Mexico highlands

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2020
Haemosporidian parasites of birds are found worldwide and include the genera Haemoproteus, Plasmodium and Leucocytozoon. Infection with haemosporidian parasites can affect host physical condition and reproductive success.

Host–parasite oxidative arms race: who will win?

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Avian haemosporidian parasites are globally widespread with a broad repertoire of hosts. When infected, the host can either reduce (resistance) and/or limit the severity of parasitaemia (tolerance). Oxidative stress plays a pivotal role in the host's resistance and tolerance, as well as its detrimental endpoints.
