Parasitic protozoa of the genus " Sarcocystis " have been recovered from the smooth muscles of adult American white ibis, and another species, " Haemoproteus plataleae ", has been recovered from the blood of adults and nestlings, and can hence be transmitted before the young leave the nest.

Florida, U . S ., 1987 : A wild turkey that died in captivity two days after capture was found to be infected with megaloschizonts from " Haemoproteus meleagridis " . " Haemoproteus " is a genus of parasitic protozoa that belong to the " Apicomplexa " phyla.

Parasitism by " Haemoproteus " and trypanosomans might affect these birds not infrequently, as was noted in studies of birds caught in Parque Nacional de La Macarena and near Turbo ( Colombia ) : though only three red-eyed vireos were examined, all were infected with at least one of these parasites.

The current classification scheme was developed prior to the widespread use of DNA sequence based taxonomy and is based on host and morphological criteria . " Plasmodium " has since been shown to be paraphytic with the genera " Haemoproteus " and " Hepatocystis " ( " vide infra " ).

While most phylogenetic trees have tended to agree that " Plasmodium " has descended from " Leukocytozoon " or " Haemoproteus " like species a Bayesian phylogenetic reconstruction suggests that " Plasmodium " may be the ancestral genus that has given rise to " Haemoproteus " and other genera.

The results agree with the previous analyses showing that " Hepatocystis ", " Haemoproteus " and " Plasmodium " appear to be derived from a " Leukocytozoon " ancestor . " Hepatocystis " appears to be a sister group to the great ape-rodent clade with the lower primate clade being ancestral to all three.

A Russian study of blood parasites showed that all the fieldfares, redwings and song thrushes sampled carried haematozoans, particularly " Haemoproteus " and " Trypanosoma " . " Ixodes " ticks are also common, and can carry pathogens, including tick-borne encephalitis in forested areas of central and eastern Europe and Russia, and, more widely, " Borrelia " bacteria.
