Description:The blood and tissue parasites of man include representatives of two groups of helminths, nematodes and cestodes, and of two groups of protozoa, hemoflagellates and sporozoa. In general, the life cycles tend to be more complex than those of the intestinal parasites and, in the case of the blood parasites, involve an arthropod vector as well as a human host. Intermediate hosts are necessary for the transmission of most of the blood and tissue organisms and in several cases, reservoir hosts are important. With the exception of Toxocara canis no external development takes place.
The Charts were originally issued in 1961 as an unnumbered publication by the Laboratory Branch of the Communicable Disease Center for use in training courses..
