Blood smears from 142 Hypsignathus monstrosus collected from one site in Gaboon were examined ; 139 bats showed Hepatocystis infection ; it seems that all animals have acquired Hepatocystis infection by the time they are 6 months of age. Intensity of parasitemias varies according to age, sex and for females to their reproductive status.
