The effect of Simulium griseicolle on the blood of growing and laying birds was studied for periods of 10 and eight weeks respectively. The red cell counts and the haemoglobin concentrations were reduced but the mean corpuscular volume was increased. The packed cell volume and the mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration were only slightly changed. The macrocytic normochromic anaemia thus observed in the infested birds might have been due to nutritional factors rather than to blood loss caused by the feeding insects. Morphological changes were observed in the erythrocytes of the infested birds and these suggest presence of in vivo haemolysis, probably caused by some haemolysing agents in the saliva of the insects.
分别对灰蚋对生长中和产蛋期禽类血液的影响进行了为期10周和8周的研究。红细胞计数和血红蛋白浓度降低，但平均红细胞体积增加。血细胞比容和平均红细胞血红蛋白浓度仅有轻微变化。因此，在受感染禽类中观察到的大细胞正色素性贫血可能是由于营养因素，而非取食昆虫导致的失血。在受感染禽类的红细胞中观察到形态学变化，这些变化表明存在体内溶血现象，可能是由昆虫唾液中的某些溶血剂引起的。
