Clinical features and host pathologyThe immature schizonts encircle the host cell nuclei and form an unbroken ring from apparent fusion of the attenuated ends. Mature schizonts contract into halteridial or dumb bell-shaped forms 15.6 X 4.3 micrometres (length x width 66.2 µm^2) with 19-52 nuclei. Rounded or oval gametocytes are 9.0 x 7.3 µm. Length x width is 66.9 µm^2 and length divided by width is 1.24. The gametocyte length x width is 2.63 times the host erythrocyte nucleus size and 1.79 the uninfected erythrocyte nucleus.
