First Report of <i>Haemoproteus</i> (Haemosporida, Haemoproteidae) Megalomeronts in the Brain of an Avian Host, with Description of Megalomerogony of <i>Haemoproteus Pastoris</i>, the Blood Parasite of the Common Starling
Species of <i>Haemoproteus</i> (Haemoproteidae, Haemosporida) are common bird pathogens. Recent molecular studies combined with histopathology research have reported development of megalomeronts of these parasites in various organs, sometimes resulting in the death of the avian host. Fiv...
