The canary Serinus canaria (Passeriformes: Fringillidae) as a new host for Isospora bioccai in Mexico

Isospora bioccai (Cringoli and Quesada 1991) (Protozoa, Apicomplexa, Eimeriidae) is reported and described from captive canaries Serinus canaria forma domestica (Linnaeus 1758) in Mexico. The oöcysts are subspherical, 25.5 × 23.5 μm, with smooth, bilayered wall, ∼1.3 μm thick. Micropyle absent, oöcy...
