| Central chromatin dot form
The dots of different species represent parasite proteins that modify red cell function in a range of ways to support parasite development, immun evasion or virulence. Their precise functions are ill defined, but their appearances have value in distinguishing the different species of parasite. The dots require a well-stained specimen to be easily seen! Schüffner's dots (P.vivax) and James' dots) (P.ovale) become apparent during the early trophzoite as faint dots then to be easily seen in later stages. These two forms of dots are morphologically indistinguishable as frequent evenly-distrubuted round dots od similar size.
