Abstract
New coccidia from the spiny dogfish shark, Squalus acanthias, and the great sculpin, Myoxocephalus polyacanthocephalus, from waters around the San Juan Islands, Puget Sound, Washington, are described and named. Thirty-one species of bony and two species of cartilaginous fishes were examined. Twenty-eight of 71 dogfish and one of four sculpins were infected with coccidia.Keywords
