New host and lineage diversity of avian haemosporidia in the northern Andes [PDF]

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2014
AbstractThe northern Andes, with their steep elevational and climate gradients, are home to an exceptional diversity of flora and fauna, particularly rich in avian species that have adapted to divergent ecological conditions. With this diversity comes the opportunity for parasites to exploit a wide breadth of avian hosts.

Haemosporidia of grey crowned cranes in Rwanda

Parasitology Research, 2021
Grey crowned cranes (Balearica regulorum) have been facing significant and long-term population declines in East Africa. Studies of Haemosporidian infections are essential to gain insight into pathogenic threats and help infer vector-host relationships, resolve parasite relationships, and support conservation efforts.

Malaria Parasites and Other Haemosporidia

American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1967
Nearly 87 years have passed since Alphonse Laveran announced to the Academy of Medicine of Paris his discovery, on the 6th November of that year, of an animal parasite in the blood of malaria patients and his association of it with the disease. In the intervening years research on the true malaria parasites and zoologically related genera has been ...

Avian haemosporidia in native and invasive sparrows at an Afrotropical region

Parasitology Research, 2021
Bio-invasions are a major threat to biodiversity and ecosystems globally and may contribute to the proliferation of emerging infectious diseases. We examined the prevalence and phylogenetic diversity of avian haemosporidian parasites infecting the non-native house sparrows (Passer domesticus) and the native southern grey-headed sparrows (Passer ...

PREVALENCE AND PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS OF AVIAN HAEMOSPORIDIA IN WILD BIRDS IN THE REPUBLIC OF KOREA

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2018
Avian blood parasites, including Plasmodium spp. and Haemoproteus spp., are found worldwide but only limited information of their occurrence is available in the Republic of Korea (ROK). We determined the prevalence of Plasmodium and Haemoproteus and their phylogenetic characteristics in wild birds in ROK.

Molecular Identification of Avian Haemosporidia in Wild Birds and Mosquitoes on Tsushima Island, Japan

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Medical Science, 2013
We investigated for the first time the prevalence of avian haemosporidia of genera Plasmodium, Haemoproteus and Leucocytozoon among birds and mosquitoes on Tsushima Island of Japan, which is located between Japan and the Korean Peninsula. Of 55 wild birds belonging to 33 species, 16 (29.1%) tested positive for haemosporidia as follows: Plasmodium spp. (

A Comparative Study of Gametocyte Ultrastructure in Avian Haemosporidia*

The Journal of Protozoology, 1973
SYNOPSISThe fine structure of gametocytes of 3 avian haemosporidian parasites Plasmodium gallinaceum, Haemoproteus columbae, and Leucocytozoon simondi has been studied and compared by electron microscopy. The gametocytes of all 3 species are bounded by a 3‐layered limiting membrane system, possess a cytostome during some portion of their residence ...

Molecular Screening of Plasmodium (Haemosporidia: Plasmodiidae) Parasites from Reptiles in Brazil

Journal of Parasitology, 2019
Hemosporidians are a monophyletic group of protozoan parasites infecting all terrestrial vertebrate orders. Although Plasmodium is the most studied genus within the Haemosporidia, this research effort is heavily biased toward mammal and bird hosts.

Saurocytozoon Parasites (Haemosporidia: Plasmodiidae) from Southeast Asian Skinks

Journal of Parasitology, 1983
Saurocytozoon parasites commonly found in Mabuya multifasciata (Sauria: Scincidae) from Sin- gapore and Thailand do not differ morphologically from S. mabuyi Lainson, Landau and Shaw, 1974, originally described from Mabuya mabouya of Brazil. They are here considered conspecific, indicating that Saurocytozoon is not a New World endemic but entered the ...

[Pathogenicity of hemosporidians (Sporozoa, Haemosporidia) of birds].

Parazitologiia, 1984
Ultrastructure of the cyst's wall was studied in monocercus type larvae of 5 species of the family Dilepididae: Dichoanotaenia tundra, Particterotaenia porosa, Platyscolex ciliata, Sacciuterina stellifera and Trichocephaloides megalocephala. In all examined cysticercoids the cyst's wall is of identical structure.
