Parasite 8 2 107 113 ref Young asexual stages are initially polar in the erythrocyte but with matuation, move to a lateral position. The larger meront s may slightly enlarge the erythrocyte but most asexual stages do not. Conspicuous greenish black pigment granules are located in a distinct vacuole . The largest schizont s contain 30 40 nuclei. The gametocyte s are at first polar in the erythrocyte but gradually move to a lateral position. They eventually assume a smooth, curved cylindrical shape with evenly rounded ends. Pigment is scattered or concentrated around a conspicuous vacuole which is slowly developed as the gametocytes mature. The mature gametocytes occasionally enlarge the erythrocyte. Mature male parasites measured 11.8 x 4.0 micrometre s range 9.6 x 4.2 13.2 x 3.6 micrometres and females 13.5 x 4.5 micrometres range 12.0 x 4.5 15.0 x 4.8 micrometres .
