Species in this genus have two hosts in their life cycle: the vertebrate host is a fish or amphibian (possibly also reptiles) and the invertebrate host is a glossiphoniid leech (Glossiphoniidae).


Taxonomy

This genus was described by Labbé in 1894. The type species is Dactylosoma ranarum.

Description

Merogony: Schizonts in this genus produce 6 to 16 merozoites by simultaneous exogenous budding. These typically are found in a fan shaped arrangement. This occurs within the erythrocytes.

Secondary merogony produces 6 smaller merozoites that are destined to become intraerythrocytic gamonts.

Gametogony: The gametocytes are larger, elongated forms derived from some of the merozoites.

Oocysts are formed after fertilization in the leech intestine. 30 or more sporozoites are produced by exogenous budding directly in the cytoplasm of the intestinal epithelial cells. No oocyst wall is formed.

gollark: (or better)
gollark: The boost clocks are higher though, so it's probably about the same on single-core tasks.
gollark: Look at the i5-7200U vs i5-8250U. They have the same 15W TDP (not that Intel make that very meaningful) but the 7200U has half the cores and higher base clocks.
gollark: Yes. They used to have 2 cores.
gollark: If you look at the mobile lineup for 7th gen vs 8th gen, you see that 8th gen has a lot more cores and also worse clocks.
