The  arrow  denotes  a  red  cell  with  numerous,  scattered  prominent  blue  inclusions  identified  with  a  polychrome  stain.  Basophilic  stippling  may  be  present  in  a  variety  of  conditions  such  as  clonal  sideroblastic  anemia,  polyclonal  sideroblastic  anemia,  megaloblastic  anemia,  thalassemia,  and  others.  It  is  particularly  useful  in  distinguishing  iron  deficient  erythropoiesis  from  thalassemia  minor  since  it  is  absent  in  the  former  and  present  in  the  latter.  It  is  also  a  marker  of  red  cell  dysmorphia  in  clonal  anemia.
