. Special pathology and therapeutics of the diseases of domestic animals. Veterinary medicine. -Fig. 130. Piroplasma higemi- Spherical and pear shapes. Cattle blood; stained with methylene Fig. 131. Piroplasma higfimi- tiKin. Rod and ring shapes. Blood of a cow in a stage of commencing convalescence; stained after Lav- eran. Koch examined material from ticks which sucked themselves full of blood from affected animals, and found that, after leaving the blood corpuscles, the parasites become elongated to club shape in the intestines of the ticks and develop lancet-like projections, which may be slowly drawn in and extended (morning star shapes). Later the extensions become shorter, and diminish in number, whereupon the parasites change into round or pear-shaped bodies. Such bodies are found, also, in the eggs of infectecl ticks, but as they are 3-4 times the size of the piroplasma in the blood of cattle, it is possible that between the two there are still other transitory forms. (Kleine observed star forms also in dog piroplasma, which he placed in strong salt solution. Hartman, however, considered Uiem as manifestations of degeneration.).
