Comment:
Plasmodium malariae schizont in thin film - note 6 - 12 merozoites in non-enlarged red cell and abundant dark brown pigment in centre. (Although in this film, it appears the pigment is at the side - it depends how quickly the film dries as to whether they are seen in their typical resting stage and whether there is some distortion during the making of the film).
