This book addresses the morphological, quantitative and generative aspects of the erythrocytes of the rhesus monkey Macaca mulatta and the cynomolgus monkey Macaca fascicularis (long-tailed macaque, crab-eating monkey). The haemopoietic cells of man and the rhesus monkey display an intimate homogeneity. The authors of the book discuss the erythropoietic profiles of normal and abnormal macaques of both sexes and of all age groups. They cover the role of stress as it is perceived by the monkey and how it impacts haemocytological values, and how to train the monkey to be a cooperative subject. Additional topics include the role of medication when collecting normal physiological data, the development of the precursors of the erythrocyte (normoblasts), morphological analysis of the megaloblastic series of abnormal erythroid cells, the analysis of erythropoiesis in bone marrow, the relationship of the simian immunodeficiency virus and erythropoiesis, erythrocyte life span, and parasitic invasion of the red cell.
