Protistas "incerta sedis" de ofídios do Brasil: Toddia França, 1912 e Pirhemocyton Chatton & Blanc, 1914: estudo comparativo

Abstract: Dentre 683 serpentes procedentes de diferentes pontos do Brasil, 16 (2,4%) apresentaram em seu sangue (em glóbulos vermelhos maturos e imaturos) Toddia ou Pirhemocyton. Denominamos provisoriamente Toddia os parasitos encontrados em Bothrops moojeni, B. pradoi, B. jararaca e Chironius flavolineatus e Pirhemocyton os encontrados em B. alternatus; fornecemos a primeira referência nestes hospedeiros. Estes parasitos foram estudados comparativamente com o objetivo de estabelecermos a extensão de suas afinidades. Co… Show more

“…Toddia, found in frogs (Johnston, 1975) and snakes (Marquardt and Yaeger, 1967;Sousa et al, 1973), clearly differs from the Pirhemocyton-like erythrocytic viral infec tions of lizards, by the presence of a crystalloid body, also demonstrable ultrastructurally (Sousa and Weigl, 1976;Alves de Matos and Paperna, 1990). In lizard infections, the presence of a vacuole (= albuminoid body), during at least part of the viral infection process, or its total absence, corresponded vith distinct groups of hosts namely: vacuoles were present in all gecko infections, and absent in infections of agamids and skinks.…”
