“…Different developmental stages of Eimeria were noticed in the intestinal epithelium. Similar results were observed by Yakhchali and Tehrani (2007) who suggested that intestinal coccidiosis causes atrophy of the enterocytes lining the villi results in interference with intestinal function and impairs intestinal motility.…”

“…Moreover, we noticed atrophy of the enterocytes lining the intestinal villi of the mucosa because of the presence of Eimeria spp. on site (Yakhchali & Tehrani 2007). Adamu and colleagues (2013) recorded a change in the histopathology of broilers caused by E. tenella and E. brunetti .…”

The prevalence of coccidiosis was determined and Eimeria species were identified in farms at different locations in the Bejaia region, Algeria. The study was conducted from February to December 2016. Unvaccinated birds were selected randomly. Samples from litter and faeces were collected randomly (147 and 109, respectively). Necropsy and parasitological examinations were carried out using standard methods. Of the samples examined, 93 out of the 147 litter samples and 78 out of the 109 intestinal content samples were infected with Eimeria oocysts (63.26% and 71.55%, respectively). Mixed infections with Eimeria spp. were observed in some of the positive farms, with an overall prevalence of 54.28%. Five species of Eimeria (viz. E. acervulina, E. tenella, E. maxima, E. brunetti and E. mitis) were identified with different indices. Eimeria acervulina followed by E. tenella were the predominant species infecting chickens at the farms visited (32.05% and 26.92%, respectively). Statistically, the most prevalent Eimeria spp. was E. Acervulina (p < 0.05). This study demonstrated that coccidiosis is an omnipresent parasitic intestinal disease. It could strongly decrease production performance in broiler chickens.

A total of 200 domestic rabbits were collected from Qena Governorate, Egypt, from October 2018 to October 2020. Their fecal samples were tested for the presence of Eimeria species oocysts using the standard flotation technique, which revealed oocysts in 100 rabbits (50%). The following 11 species of Eimeria were examined morphologically and morphometrically from different parts of the rabbits’ intestine (duodenum, ileum, cecum, colon and rectum): Eimeria coecicola, E. exigua, E. flavescens, E. irresidua, E. magna, E. media, E. perforans, E. intestinalis, E. stiedae, E. vejdovskyi, and E. piriformis. Moreover, the endogenous stages of E. intestinalis were examined by light and transmission electron microscopy. Macrogametogenesis and microgametogenesis were clearly observed. The development of microgamonts, macrogametes, and oocysts with their fine structural characteristics was detected. Additionally, a detailed key for each species is provided according to the common morphological characters such as the presence or absence of oocyst and sporocyst residua as well as conspicuous or inconspicuous micropyle. E. stiedae, E. irresidua, and E. vejdovskyi are reported for the first time in Qena Governorate, Upper Egypt.
