Ultrastructure of intracelullar stages of Hoferellus anurae (TEM) (a) Intracellular stages (arrows) located in the tubular epithelium, b typical cell composition, i.e. enveloping primary cell with protoplasmic projections (arrowhead) containing three secondary cells, c, d overall appearance of intracellular stages; note the unaffected healthy microvillar zone (small arrowheads) of a tubule infected solely with intracellular stages in C. Asterisk = sporogonic plasmodium in tubular lumen, HN = host cell nucleus
