Sažetak
Morphological characteristics, including numeration, differentiation and features of blood cells were determined in ten male and ten female clinically normal adult llamas. Haematological parameters included: erythrocyte count, haemoglobin concentration, packed cell volume, erythrocyte indices, reticulocyte count, platelet count, total leukocyte count and differential leukocyte count. It appeared that llama haemogram was characterized by the presence of numerous but small erythrocytes, high total leukocyte count and a high number of mainly immature eosinophils. Unique cellular morphological characteristics commonly observed in May-Grunwald-Giemsa stained blood smears were: folded erythrocytes, Cabot’s rings, hypersegmented neutrophil nuclei, granular lymphocytes and immature eosinophils.
