Hepatozoonosis in foxes from Portugal

FM Conceicao-Silva, P Abranches, MC Silva-Pereira, and JG Janz


ABSTRACT

Hepatozoon, sp. is described for the first time in foxes (Vulpes vulpes silacea) in Portugal. Of 301 foxes examined, 143 (48%) were infected. The gametocyte was the predominant stage of the life cycle and was found in every organ except the bone marrow, where schizonts were the most abundant stage. The morphological similarity of this parasite's gametocytes to Hepatozoon canis is emphasized.
