A. The schizont contains 6 to 12 merozoites; generally abundant in hematin granules; may contain Ziemann stippling.
B. The most predominant species worldwide; 12 to 24 merozoites; may contain Schüffner dots or granules.
C. Infected erythrocytes may be enlarged and oval shaped; may contain Schüffner dots; 6 to 14 merozoites in the schizont.
D. Young trophozoites and gametocytes are generally the only stage seen in peripheral blood; gametocytes appear as crescent- or sausage-shaped structures in erythrocytes; Maurer dots may be present.
