The Symposium consisted of a series of papers concerned with in<br />
vitro cultivation of various protozoan parasites which have a severe impact<br />
on the health of man and domestic animals. Since the last Congress<br />
of Protozoology in New York in 1977, considerable progress has been<br />
made in the cultivation of the various developmental forms found in<br />
the vector and in the mammalian host.<br />
Theileria and Babesia<br />
C. G. D. Brown traced the history of cultivation of these two<br />
closely related species of the order Piroplasmida. The marked difference<br />
in their life cycle in the vertebrate host is reflected in their course<br />
of development of in vitro cultivation. Theileria sspp. undergo exoery-<br />
Session took place on July 11, 1981 at VI International Congress of Protozoology,<br />
