  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;Examination of blood films from wood ducks (&lt;i&gt;Aix sponsa&lt;/i&gt;) from several northeastern states revealed &lt;i&gt;Haemoproteus&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Leucocytozoon&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Plasmodium&lt;/i&gt; and a typanosome. &lt;i&gt;Haemoproteus&lt;/i&gt; occurred in all areas sampled and birds of the year from Massachusetts demonstrated the highest incidence during the last 2 weeks in August. &lt;i&gt;Leucocytozoon&lt;/i&gt; was most prevalent in more northern areas. &lt;i&gt;P. circumflexum&lt;/i&gt; and a trypanosome are reported for the first time from this host.&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
