This photomicrograph of a blood smear sample, revealed what is referred to as a tetrad configuration of Babesia sp. trophozoites, which resemble P. falciparum. Though Babesia spp. organisms may resemble P. falciparum, they exhibit several distinguishing features, including a greater variability in shape and in size, and they do not produce pigment.
