Abstract
Falconiform-inhabiting species of Leucocytozoon are reviewed and a checklist of Falconiformes known to harbor Leucocytozoon is included. Morphological measurements were made from 11 falconiform species to examine the interspecific and intraspecific variations. These formed the basis for the redescription of gametocytes of L. toddi Sambon. It was proposed to synonymize L. audieri, L. bacelari, L. beaurepairei, L. circaeti, L. franchini, L. martyi, and L. mathisi with L. toddi.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
