We collected 50 three-toed box turtles () from 9 counties of Arkansas and 4 counties of Oklahoma, and examined their feces for coccidial parasites. Nine of 24 (38%) turtles from Arkansas and 8 of 26 (31%) from Oklahoma were found to be passing oocysts of . This represents two new geographic distributional records for this coccidian. Measurements of individual isolates of as well as morphological characteristics are provided with comparison to its original description and to another coccidian, . In addition, we noted an adelid pseudoparasite being passed by a single from Oklahoma that likely represents a parasite of arthropods.
我们从阿肯色州的9个县和俄克拉何马州的4个县收集了50只三趾箱龟，并检查它们的粪便中是否存在球虫寄生虫。在来自阿肯色州的24只龟中有9只（38%），来自俄克拉何马州的26只龟中有8只（31%）被发现排出了[某种球虫]的卵囊。这代表了这种球虫的两个新的地理分布记录。提供了[该球虫]各个分离株的测量数据以及形态特征，并与它最初的描述以及另一种[球虫]进行了比较。此外，我们注意到一只来自俄克拉何马州的[三趾箱龟]排出了一种阿德利类假寄生虫，它可能是节肢动物的寄生虫。
