  • Title: [The trypanosomes of birds of the family Estrildidae. I. Morphologic and systematic study].
    Author: Chandenier J, Landau I, Baccam D.
    Journal: Ann Parasitol Hum Comp; 1988; 63(3):184-92. PubMed ID: 3190119.
    Abstract:
    Twenty two birds belonging to the species Estrilda melpoda and E. astrild were studied. Nine birds were found infected by Trypanosomes. They belong to four different species: one is identified as Trypanosoma everetti, the other three are new species (T. chabaudi, T. davidmolyneuxi and T. gentilinii). Several mixed infections were found. Each species appears to be monomorphic in the circulating blood; it is suggested that the polymorphism of several Trypanosomes described in the literature is due to polyparasitic infections rather than to a true polymorphism.
