The oocysts of the coccidia are robust structures, frequently isolated from the feces or urine
of their hosts, which provide resistance to mechanical damage and allow the parasites to …

Taxonomy includes collection, identification, naming and ordering of specimens into a
system of words consistent with any kind of relationships among them, the study of …

Species of wild birds, like all wild animals, have different levels of specialization in their
ecological niches, thus being classified into specialists when they have narrower ecological …

The degree of host specificity, its phylogenetic conservativeness and origin are virtually
unknown in Eimeria. This situation is largely due to the inadequate sample of eimerian …

We present the first reconstruction of the parasitoses among the people of the Loma San
Gabriel culture, as represented by 36 coprolites excavated from the Cueva de los Muertos …

Eimeria is an important coccidian enteric parasite that infects a wide range of hosts and can
cause substantial economic losses in the poultry and livestock industries. It is common for …

Phylogenetic analyses for 10 rodent Eimeria species from different host genera based on
plastid ORF470 and nuclear 18S rDNA sequences were done to infer the evolutionary …

INTRODUCTION. Coccidia are exceptionally common protist parasites of both vertebrates
and, to a lesser extent, invertebrates. Every vertebrate species that ever has been examined …

Partial plastid 23S and nuclear 18S rDNA genes were amplified and sequenced from 2
morphologically similar Eimeria species, E. antrozoi from a bat (Antrozous pallidus) and E …

The helminth parasite fauna of a natural population of the octodontid, Ctenomys talarum,
was studied. Parasites that were found included the nematodes Heligmostrongylus sp. and …
