Huffia is a subgenus of the genus Plasmodium - all of which are parasites. The subgenus was created in 1963 by Corradetti et al..[1] Species in this subgenus infect birds with malaria.[2]

This subgenus is named in honour of the Dr. Clay G. Huff.[3]

Description

Species in the subgenus Huffia have the following characteristics:

  • Mature schizonts, while varying in shape and size, contain plentiful cytoplasm and are commonly found in immature erthryocytes.
  • Gametocytes are elongated.[2]

P. huffi had been considered 'lost' since it hadn't been observed since its discovery in the 1950s, however it was re-discovered in toucans in 2021.[4]
