摘要

To the Editor: Human infection with the parasitic protozoa, Cyclospora, was first described in 1979 (1), and the organism was only recently categorized as an important gastrointestinal parasite. A single species, Cyclospora cayetanensis, has been described in humans (2), while most species in the genus Cyclospora have been described only in reptiles and rodents (3). The consumption of undercooked meat and exposure to contaminated water have been considered possible sources of human infection with C. cayetanensis (1,4). Coccidia were detected in drinking water in Nepal (5), and the parasite was identified in an animal species (one duck in Peru, by Zerpa et al. [6]) different from those in which it was described earlier. To determine whether a domestic animal is either a host or a reservoir for C. cayetanensis, we first examined feces from cats, which are hosts and reservoirs of Toxoplasma gondii, a coccidia causing human illness, but got negative results. Because Cyclospora were recently phylogenetically linked to Eimeria mitis and E. tenella (7), coccidial parasites of chickens, we investigated the presence of Cyclospora in poultry.
