Blood of the common indian weaver birds Ploceus philippinus and Ploceus benghalensis (Linnaeus).
The blood contents of two common Indian weaver birds, Ploceus philippinus and Ploceus benghalensis have been studied. Morphology of RBC and WBC, total differential count, the number of RBC and WBC, Hb contents, PCV, MCV, MCH, MCHC, ESR, haemin crystal structures, coagulation and prothrombin time, glucose and cholesterol contents were calculated and compared with the haematological data recorded for other birds and vertebrates. Variation with respect to length and breadth of the erythrocytes and length of the nucleus of the RBC were also discussed. Males have higher RBC number and Hb content in these birds. The mean RBC number and Hb content were also more than in fishes, amphibians and reptiles but little less than in man. The RBC number for males of both the species do not differ significantly but the Hb contents in males and females of P. benghalensis differ significantly but this was not found in P. philippinus. Again the Hb content in male of both the species differ significantly but this was not true in females. Like Passer and Columba large number of polymorphs and lymphocytes were present but only a few basophils was observed in most of the slide preparations. No special type of haemin crystals were observed in any sex of both the species. The coagulation time was more than Passer and Columba but less than in man. There was also no marked difference in both the species with respect to prothrombin time. In both the species blood glucose was more in female than male but there was no marked difference in both the species.
