Morphological and Molecular Characterization of a New Isospora (Apicomplexa: Eimeriidae) Species From a Singing Honeyeater (Gavicalis virescens Vieillot, 1817) (Passeriformes: Meliphagidae) in Western Australia
ABSTRACT We describe and characterize a new Isospora species from the Singing honeyeater (Gavicalis virescens) in Western Australia, both morphologically and molecularly. Microscopic analysis of a fecal sample identified 25 ellipsoidal oocysts, measuring 21–25 × 18–20 μm (mean 23.4 × 18.7 μm), with...
