n8:8442659_Taxonomic_status_and_re-description_of_Plasmodium_relictum_Grassi_et_Feletti_1891_Plasmodium_maior_Raffaele_1931_and_description_of_P_bigueti_n_sp_in_sparrows

dct:abstract

The first accurate re-description of Plasmodium relictum (Grassi et Feletti, 1891) in its type host was provided by Raffaele in 1931, and the name relictum should thus refer to this work. In his article, Raffaele noted the presence of an associated but distinct species, P maior. The work of Raffaele has since remained overlooked, and the taxon relictum has been applied rather loosely to parasites found in numerous birds of diverse geographic origin. Examination of Passer domesticus specimens collected in France has confirmed the presence of the two species above, and further revealed that two other species can also be found in these birds. P bigueti n. sp. is described here, whereas the other Plasmodium sp. was not found in sufficient numbers to allow characterisation.
