re-description of cryptosporidium cuniculus inman and takeuchi, 1979 (apicomplexa: cryptosporidiidae): morphology, biology and phylogeny.to provide re-description of cryptosporidium cuniculus inman and takeuchi, 1979 (synonymous with rabbit genotype), a species closely related to cryptosporidium hominis, the morphology, natural and experimental host specificity, and genetic characterisation were investigated. the morphology and diagnostic characteristics are typical of other intestinal species of cryptosporidium, albeit with slightly larger oocysts (5.55-6.40×5.02-5.92 μm; mean 5.98×5.38 μm; length:width=1.1; n=50). natural hosts ...201020600069
cryptosporidium cuniculus in the rabbit (oryctolagus cuniculus).cryptosporidium cuniculus was identified by light and electron microscopy in two apparently healthy rabbits. organisms were firmly attached at the brush borders of intestinal epithelial cells. cellular alterations were minimal, consisting of elongation and shortening of microvilli adjacent to the attachment sites of organisms. various developmental stages of cryptosporidium were identified by electron microscopy.1979513637
