Heterophils are large cells with a round to lobed nucleus and fusiform acidophilic cytoplasmic granules. The size varies between species and often varies in individual blood smears. The primary function of heterophils may be phagocytosis. In some species heterophils are the most common [[Leucocytes|leucocyte]].[[Category:Lizard_and_Snake_Glossary]]
