Dendritic leucocytes as possible carriers of murine Plasmodium merozoites. Preliminary note.

A merozoite of Plasmodium yoelii nigeriensis was observed, by transmission electron microscopy, associated with the surface of a dendritic leucocyte, in the cortical zone of a renal lymph node from a heavily infected mouse.
