The fundamental concept of The Biology and Identification of the
Coccidia (Apicomplexa) of Carnivores of the World is to provide an
up-to-date reference guide to the identification, taxonomy, and
known biology of apicomplexan intestinal and tissue parasites of
carnivores including, but not limited to, geographic distribution,
prevalence, sporulation, prepatent and patent periods, site(s) of
infection in the definitive and (if known) intermediate hosts,
endogenous development, cross-transmission, pathology, phylogeny,
and (if known) their treatments. These data will allow easy
parasite recognition with a summation of virtually everything now
known about the biology of each parasite species covered. The last
(very modest) and only treatise published on this subject was in
1981 so this book fills a fundamental gap in our knowledge of what
is now known, and what is not, about the coccidian parasites that
infect and sometimes kill carnivores and/or their prey that can
harbor intermediate stages, including many domestic and game
animals.
