Explanation
Plasmodium knowlesi is a malarial parasite of macaques (Macaca fascicularis and M. nemestrina, long-tailed and pig-tailed macaques) in South and Southeast Asian forests. It causes simian malaria naturally but has emerged as an important zoonotic pathogen for humans in Borneo (Malaysian Sabah and Sarawak), the Philippines, and other parts of SE Asia. Key features: shortest erythrocytic cycle among human-infecting plasmodia (24 h — quotidian fever); can cause severe malaria with high parasitaemia; often misidentified as P. malariae (morphological similarity); requires primate reservoir and Anopheles leucosphyrus mosquito group vector. P. knowlesi is now recognised as the 5th Plasmodium species causing malaria in humans.
