Popis:	The genus Caryospora (Apicomplexa, Eimeriorina) contains 30 species of coccidia that develop primarily in reptiles and predatory birds. Recent studies have shown that some species of Caryospora are heteroxenous, with both asexual and sexual phases of parasite development occurring in the intestinal epithelium of a predatory reptile or bird and in dermal connective tissues of rodents. The life-cycle of these Caryospora spp. is distinct from all known genera of the Eimeriidae. In this paper we present a review of and redefine the genus Caryospora, present succinct taxonomic descriptions, synonyms and lapsi, and provide line drawings (if available) of oocysts of each of the described species. ac]19841022
