摘要：

Three of six wild dogs (Lycaon pictus) which died of rabies, and one Alsatian dog which died of adenocarcinoma, were found to harbour sarcocysts in their cardiac and/or skeletal muscles. The bradyzoites and metrocytes of the cysts were smaller than those seen in a lion infected with Microbesnoitia leoni and the common Sarcocystis spp. found in ruminants. It is proposed that Lycaon pictus is the natural intermediate host of the unidentified Sarcocystis-like species.
