Abstract
1. 1. Exoerythrocytic forms of Plasmodium gallinaceum in all stages of development have been seen in hepatic and pulmonary epithelium grown in tissue culture. This is in contrast to the results of in vivo experiments in which such parasites have been found only in mesenchymal elements. 2. 2. There is presumptive evidence that the parasites had undergone complete development within the epithelial cells for at least two cycles. 3. 3. These observations indicate that there is a greater range of host cell-types for exoerythrocytic forms than has been previously recognized. © 1954.
