Quantifying phagocytic lymphocytes in ectothermic vertebrates: A simplified technique for assessing immune function

Many measures of immune function used in ecoimmunological studies were optimized for endotherms and may not adequately characterize immunocompetence in ectothermic species. Lymphocytes are interpreted as functioning in adaptive immunity despite evidence that large proportions of these cells have inn...
