Infections with the Uganda Palo Alto, Malayan Camp-CH/Q, Vietnam Oak Knoll, and Vietnam Smith strains of Plasmodium falciparum in owl monkeys (Aotus trivirgatus griseimembra) with concomitant microfilaremias usually, but not always, followed a more benign course than infections with the same strains in monkeys free of filarial infections. Four distinct microfilariae were identified in systematic examinations of 26 monkeys, 5 with self-limited infections with P. falciparum, 9 with normally benign self-limited infections with P. vivax, and 12 without previous malaria. The microfilariae found included: Dipetalonema (Dipetalonema) gracile, Tetrapetalonema (Tetrapetalonema) barbascalensis, T. (T.) panamensis, and an unidentified species designated "Aotus C." Among 23 monkeys studied completely, 14 were infected with a single species, 4 had double infections, and 5 had triple infections. T. barbascalensis was identified in 16 monkeys, T. panamensis in 11. Although data were very limited, there was a suggestion that infections with P. falciparum were less intense in monkeys infected with T. barbascalensis, either alone or with other filariae, than in subjects infected only with T. panamensis.
在伴有微丝蚴血症的夜猴（灰肢三色夜猴）中，感染恶性疟原虫的乌干达帕洛阿尔托株、马来坎普-CH/Q株、越南橡树丘株和越南史密斯株，通常（但并非总是）比未感染丝虫的猴子感染相同菌株后的病程更为良性。在对26只猴子的系统检查中鉴定出了四种不同的微丝蚴，其中5只感染了自限性恶性疟原虫，9只感染了通常良性的自限性间日疟原虫，12只此前未感染过疟疾。发现的微丝蚴包括：细柔双瓣线虫、巴氏四瓣线虫、巴拿马四瓣线虫，以及一种未鉴定的物种，命名为“Aotus C”。在完全研究的23只猴子中，14只感染了单一物种，4只双重感染，5只三重感染。在16只猴子中鉴定出了巴氏四瓣线虫，11只中鉴定出了巴拿马四瓣线虫。尽管数据非常有限，但有迹象表明，单独感染巴氏四瓣线虫或同时感染其他丝虫的猴子感染恶性疟原虫的程度，低于仅感染巴拿马四瓣线虫的猴子。
