Two chimpanzee samples tested positive for " Plasmodium ovale " and one for " Plasmodium malariae ".
2.
"Plasmodium malariae " has been considered to be closely related to " Plasmodium brasilianum " and " Plasmodium rhodiani ".
3.
In 1886 Golgi described the morphological differences that are still used to distinguish two malaria parasite species " Plasmodium vivax " and " Plasmodium malariae ".
4.
Soon thereafter, Giovanni Batista Grassi and Raimondo Filetti named the parasites causing two different types of human malaria " Plasmodium vivax " and " Plasmodium malariae ".
5.
He named the parasite " Oscillaria malariae " ( later renamed " Plasmodium malariae " ) and reported his discovery to the French Academy of Medicine in Paris on 23 November and 28 December.
6.
He studied the life cycle of " Plasmodium " and related the timing of tertian and quartan fevers seen in malaria with the life cycle of the organisms now named " Plasmodium vivax " and " Plasmodium malariae ", respectively.
7.
This species was first described by Dionisi in 1899 . A subspecies ( " P . melanipherum monosoma " ) was later described by Vassal in 1907 . " P . melanipherum " was described to resemble " Plasmodium malariae ".
8.
The morphology of " Plasmodium knowlesi " is similar to that of " Plasmodium malariae " . " P . malariae " is characterized by a compact parasite ( all stages ) and does not alter the host erythrocyte's shape or size or cause enlargement.
9.
For a long time he was held in vague esteem for the success of his cooling ( or rather expectant ) treatment of smallpox, for his laudanum ( the first form of a tincture of opium ), and for his advocacy of the use of " Peruvian bark " in quartan agues, in modern terms, the use of quinine-containing cinchona bark for treatment of malaria caused by " Plasmodium malariae ".

In October 1941, H . Levinson joined the Malaria Research Station of the Hebrew University ( Director : Prof . Dr . Gideon Mer ) in Rosh Pina ( Upper Galilee, Palestine ) and performed examinations of the mosquito species " Anopheles saccharovi, " " Anopheles sergentii " and " Anopheles superpictus " for availability of the sporozoans Plasmodium falciparum, Plasmodium malariae, Plasmodium vivax or Plasmodium ovale, inhabiting the blood-sucking females of the above mosquito species.
