 An increased polychromasia and erythroblasts in general suggests an increased need for erythrocytes in peripheral blood and can be interpreted as evidence of a regenerative anemia.

 Occasionally, a high number of erythroblasts may be found in the micro‐hematocrit tube, forming an intermediate layer between the buffy coat and the red blood concentrate.

 This activity is usually accompanied by the presence of erythrocyte precursors in peripheral blood (erythroblasts, occasionally polychromatophils).

 Hemoparasites may also lead to increased numbers of erythroblasts and polychromasia.

 Polychromasia may also occur in the absence of anemia as has been reported in shedding reptiles.
