Abstract
Five forms of the avian haemoproteids are described and illustrated. An annotated checklist of 113 species of avian Haemoproteus using these five forms, specific morphological characters and the concept of familial specificity is presented. In addition, tables are presented to show current synonymies, nomina nuda and species which may be valid but require redescription.Keywords
