32. MIKROFILARIA BRUGIA MALAYI Like Wuchereria bancrofti , this species has a sheath (slightly stained in hematoxylin). Differently from Wuchereria , the microfilariae in this species are more tightly coiled, and the nuclear column is more tightly packed, preventing the visualization of individual cel. Brugia malayi (see image in right) showing the tapered tail, with a subterminal and a terminal nuclei (seen as swellings at the level of the arrows), separated by a gap without nuclei.
