Abstract
A series of line drawings of the unsporulated and sporulated oocysts of the species of Eimeria found in cattle and sheep in Britain has been compiled.The incidence of the different species in faecal samples from animals, of which only a minority were known to be suffering from enteritis or diarrhoea, has been recorded. Samples from sheep frequently contained five or six different species among which those that are believed to be pathogenic (E. arloingi, E. crandallis, E. ninaekohlyakimovae) were the most common.The samples from cattle most frequently contained two or three species. E. bovis and E. zuerni, which are associated with acute disease, were the most common.
