Eimeria bandipurensis n.Abstract:
SYNOPSIS. Eimeria bandipurensis n. sp., is described from the gut of an Indian palm squirrel, Funumbulus palmarum, obtained from a village, Bandipur, in West Bengal. Spherical and egg-shaped oocysts were encountered, the former averaging 17 μ in diameter and the latter 18 by 16 μ. Oocystic residuum was absent while the sporocystic residuum was represented by refractile globules. A Stieda body was present in the sporocyst. Sporozoites were banana-shaped with one end broader and the other pointed with a clear globule at each end.read more
