Description
This species was described by Peláez and Perez-Reyes in 1952.
It was named after Alexandre Joseph Emile Brumpt (1877–1951) a French professor of parasitology.
The schizonts may be lateral (elongated) or polar (more rounded) in the erythrocyte and produce 15-20 merozoites.
The gametocytes may be lateral (elongated) or polar (spherical to reniform).
The larger schizonts and mature gametocytes cause enlargement of the erythrocyte.
