Description

This species was first described by Poirriez et al. in 1993.[1]

The trophozoites have long crescent-shaped nuclei (surface area 2.18 +/- 0.25 square micrometres).

The pigment is stored as short rods.

Geographical occurrence

Plasmodium georgesi has been found in the Central African Republic.

Clinical features and host pathology

Plasmodium georgesi, Plasmodium petersi and Plasmodium gonderi are the only Plasmodium species found to date (2008) in Cercocebus monkeys.

P. georgesi infects Cercocebus albigena and Cercocebus galeritus agilis causing a remitting/relapsing form of malaria.
