Ten new species were found and described. These are Plasmodium sapaaensis, P. kyaii, P. kachelibaensis, P. icipeensis, P. gloriai, P. odhiamboi, P. bowiei, P. kaninii, P. kadogoi and P. adunyinkai. P. sapaaensis was found to be related to P. mabuiae, P. kadogoi to P. rhadinurum, P. kaninii to P. minasense (s. Telford) and P. adunyinkai to P. maculilabre. P. kyaii and P. kachelibaensis have distinct characteristics which distinguish them from the Plasmodium species in the tropiduri group reported so far. Four species i.e. P. icipeensis, P. odhiamboi, P. gloriai and P. bowiei, exhibited peculiar characteristics most especially their effect on the white cells. They were therefore constituted into the "Kenyan” group.
