description and molecular characterization of haemoproteus macrovacuolatus n. sp. (haemosporida, haemoproteidae), a morphologically unique blood parasite of black-bellied whistling duck (dendrocygna autumnalis) from south america. | during a surveillance programme on avian influenza in wild birds in the east of colombia, 42% of examined wild black-bellied whistling ducks (dendrocygna autumnalis) were infected with undescribed haemoproteus sp., which macrogametocytes possess one or several huge (2.5 μm in largest diameter) conspicuous roundish vacuoles, a unique character of avian haemoproteids. this parasite is named haemoproteus (parahaemoproteus) macrovacuolatus and described here using data on the morphology of its gamet ... | 2014 | 24908432 |
