Abstract
A scanning electron microscopic study of Cryptosporidium sp. from the stomach of the cichlid fish Oreochromis aurea from Lake Kinnereth, Israel, revealed the existence of regularly spaced projections on their parasitophorous envelope. In young specimens the envelope was not complete leaving a hallow at their apex.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
