Journal Title: International Journal of Biological Innovations - Year 2022, Vol 4, Issue 2

Abstract

Eimeria arloingi was identified in the faecal pellets of goats collected from different domestic goats of Nashik, Maharashtra, India for the period of one year from June 2013 to May 2014. The oocysts of E. arloingi were re-described by measuring shape and size of the oocyst, sporocyst, sporozoites, sporoblast, micropyle and micropyle cap, colour of the oocyst and thickness of oocyst wall. More than half (53.6%) of the samples were found positive having oocysts of the parasite. The maximum percentage (80%) was recorded in the month of July and gradually decreases to May (20%) and rises again in the month of June (58.3%).
