[Characteristics of the genus Glugea (Protozoa, Microsporidia) based on the example of the type species Glugea anomala (Moniez, 1887) Gurley 1893 and its varieties].
A study of the life cycles of some varieties of Glugea anomala has shown that the genus Glugea is a distinct genus having the following diagnosis. Sporoblasts and spores are formed as a result of step by step decay of the multinuclear plasmodium situated inside the sporogonal vacuole (sporont). Ripe spores either remain connected together in groups with irregular (6 to 32) often uneven number of spores of lie singly, seldom in pairs. Microsporidia are able to cause extremely strong hypertrophy of the host's infected cell which is transformed into a round white cyst filled with the parasite's spores.
