avian malaria : ウィキペディア英語版 | avian malaria
Avian malaria is a parasitic disease of birds. ==Etiology== Avian malaria is most notably caused by ''Plasmodium relictum'', a protist that infects birds in all parts of the world apart from Antarctica. There are several other species of ''Plasmodium'' that infect birds, such as ''Plasmodium anasum'' and ''Plasmodium gallinaceum'', but these are of less importance except, in occasional cases, for the poultry industry. The disease is found worldwide, with important exceptions. Usually, it does not kill birds. However, in areas where avian malaria is newly introduced, such as the islands of Hawaii, it can be devastating to birds that have lost evolutionary resistance over time.
