A new Isospora species (Apicomplexa: Eimeriidae) from Taiwan Blue Magpie (Urocissa caerulea) (Passeriformes: Corvidae) with the first complete corvid coccidian mitogenome [PDF]
Passerine birds are highly susceptible to Isospora infections, yet the coccidian fauna of endemic Taiwanese avifauna remains largely unexplored. Here, we describe Isospora kwongchungi n. sp. (Apicomplexa: Eimeriidae) from the Taiwan Blue Magpie (Urocissa
