Abstract
Three coccidian parasites were found in California Banded King Snakes, Lampropeltis getulus californiae: Isospora crotali, an intestinal Eimeria, and a haemogregarine. Schizogonous stages of the latter occurred predominantly in liver, and were remarkably similar to those described for other blood Coccidia.Dr Charles E. Shaw of the San Diego Zoological Society identified the snakes, and Dr Gordon Ball, Professor of Zoology at the University of California, Los Angeles, kindly reviewed the manuscript.
