Sarcocysts have been observed in skeletal muscle of the striped skunk, Mephitis mephitis, but have bot been described. Neitz, 1965, described a sarcocystis in a South African mustelid, Mellivora capensis, but little is known of Sarcocystis spp.

Metagenomic amplicon sequencing of sarcocystis species in US beef
A new amplicon sequencing protocol was developed to identify the co-infecting species of Sarcocystis in meat samples. This method targets a variable region of the 18S ribosomal DNA and uses metagenomic techniques to distinguish among coinfecting species.
