The Plasmodiidae are a family of apicomplexan parasites, including the type genus Plasmodium, which is responsible for malaria. This family was erected in 1903 by Mesnil and is one of the four families in the order Haemospororida.
Isospora is a genus of internal parasites in the subclass Coccidia.
Plasmodium atheruri is a species of the genus Plasmodium subgenus Vinckeia. As in all members of this genus, it is parasitic on vertebrate and insect hosts. The natural vertebrate host is the African porcupine but it is possible to infect the large vesper mouse and Meriones unguiculatus.
Novyella is a subgenus of the genus Plasmodium - all of which are parasites. The subgenus was created in 1963 by Corradetti et al. Species in this subgenus infect birds. It unites the avian malaria parasites with small erythrocytic meronts and elongated gametocytes.
Hepatocystis vassali is a species of parasitic protozoa that infect mammals.
Onchocerca is a genus of parasitic roundworm. It contains one human parasite – Onchocerca volvulus – which is responsible for the neglected disease Onchocerciasis, also known as "river blindness" because the infected humans tend to live near rivers where host black flies live. Over 40 million people are infected in Africa, Central America, and South America. Other species affect cattle, horses, etc.
Plasmodium georgesi is a parasite of the genus Plasmodium subgenus Plasmodium.
Adeleorina is a suborder of parasites in the phylum Apicomplexa.
The Haemosporida are an order of intraerythrocytic parasitic alveolates.
Hepatocystis is a genus of parasites transmitted by midges of the genus Culicoides. Hosts include Old World primates, bats, hippopotamus and squirrels. This genus is not found in the New World. The genus was erected by Levaditi and Schoen, 1932, as Hepatocystes.
Haemosporidiasina (Haemosporidia) is a subclass of apicomplexans described by Jacques Euzéby in 1988. The taxon is very similar to Aconoidasida.
Garnia is a genus of parasitic alveolates belonging to the phylum Apicomplexia.
Hepatocystis carpenteri is a species of parasitic protozoa. They are transmitted by flies of the genus Culicoides and infect mammals.
Hepatocystis brosseti is a species of parasitic protozoa that infect mammals. They are transmitted by flies of the genus Culicoides
Hepatocystis muuli is a species of parasitic protozoa. They are transmitted by flies of the genus Culicoides and infect mammals.
Hepatocystis perronae is a species of parasitic protozoa. They are transmitted by flies of the genus Culicoides and infect mammals.
Hepatocystis epomophori is a species of parasitic protozoa. They are transmitted by flies of the genus Culicoides and infect mammals.
Hepatocystis taiwanensis is a species of parasitic protozoa. They are transmitted by flies of the genus Culicoides and infect monkeys.
Papernaia is a subgenus of the genus Plasmodium, all of which are parasitic protozoa. The subgenus was created in 2010 by Landau et al. It may be synonymous with Novyella.
Lipotropha is a genus of parasitic alveolates of the phylum Apicomplexa.
