KLOSSIELLA AND HEPATOZOON 



Italy. Its gamonts are found in the leu- 

 cocytes and its schizonts in the spleen. 



Hepalozoon griseisciuri Clark, 1958 

 is common in the grey squirrel {Scittrus 

 carolincnsis) in the United States. Clark 

 (1958) described its life cycle. Schizogony 

 takes place in the spleen, liver and bone 

 marrow, and the gamonts are found in the 

 monocytes. The natural vector is the 

 mite, Euhaetnogmnasus ambidans, but 

 Echinolaelaps echidninus can act as a 

 vector experimentally.
