Abstract
Sarcocysts from the tongue muscle of a European badger (Meles meles) are reported for the first time and described by light and transmission electron microscopy. Judging from the ultrastructure of the cyst wall, the parasite is similar to the species Sarcocystis gracilis Rátz, 1909 sensu Erber, Boch & Barth (1978) from roe deer and possibly identical with it. This is noteworthy regarding the intermediate host specificity.Entities:
