Abstract
|
|
|
To determine the prevalence and the morphological identification of two Eimeria species in fecal examinations, a total of 1092 fecal specimens collected during the period of March to December in 1987 was tested by means of flotation technique.
The results obtained were summarized as follow:
1. The prevalence of two species was revealed as 1.83% and 0.925 in E. bukidnonensis and E. wyomingensis, respectively.
2. The oocysts of E. bukidnonensis measured in range of 41.3㎛ to 49.4㎛(mean 45.5±1.7)×28.8㎛ to 35.3㎛(mean 32.2±1.2), and E. wyomingensis 36.9㎛ to 44.5㎛(mean 39.8±1.7)×26.5㎛ to 29.9㎛(mean 28.2±0.9).
3. The oocysts of E. bukidnonensis appeared darker and more robust than those of E. wyomingensis.
4. The striations in the oocyst wall of E. bukidnonensis were more peculiar than in E. wyomingensis.
5. Among the morphological characteristic, the widths could be reliably taken as a differential point of view for two Eimeria species.
