Editor’s summary
The morphological resemblance of early trophozoites of P. knowlesi to P. falciparum and later erythrocytic stages to P. malariae makes it extremely difficult to identify P. knowlesi infections by microscopy alone. This is the first, extensive description of the various stages of the parasite as seen in stained blood films.
