blood parasites of blue-winged teal ( anas discors ) from two migratory corridors, in the southern usa.	we collected 180 blue-winged teal ( anas discors ) in september and october 2002 from florida, us (n=100, representing the eastern migratory corridor) and the louisiana-texas, us, border (n=80, representing the western migratory corridor) and examined for blood parasites using thin heart-blood smears. leucocytozoon simondi, haemoproteus nettionis, and microfilariae were found in 16, 23, and 27 birds, respectively. prevalence of l. simondi and h. nettionis did not vary by migratory corridor, but ...	2016	27285417
