Eimeria schmidti n.sp. is described from the gall bladder of Acanthodactylus schmidti from Al-Thomama area in the central region of Saudi Arabia. Sporulated oocysts are ellipsoid 31.2 x 23.3 (26.9-36.4 x 21.2-26.0). Oocyst wall is smooth, greenish yellow, 1.31 (1.16-1.41) um thick and two-layered. Micropyle, polar granule and oocyst residuum are absent. Sporocysts are ellipsoid 12.6 x 9.3 (10.9-14.1 x 7.6-10.0) um. Sporocyst residuum is present. The sporocysts lack a stieda body. Sporozoites are banana shaped blunt at one end and tapered at the second end. Eimeria species from Lacertidae are compared.
新种施氏艾美球虫(Eimeria schmidti n.sp.)是从沙特阿拉伯中部地区图马马地区的施氏沙蜥(Acanthodactylus schmidti)的胆囊中发现并描述的。孢子化卵囊呈椭圆形,大小为31.2×23.3(26.9 - 36.4×21.2 - 26.0)。卵囊壁光滑,呈黄绿色,厚1.31(1.16 - 1.41)微米,由两层组成。无微孔、极粒和卵囊残体。孢子囊呈椭圆形,大小为12.6×9.3(10.9 - 14.1×7.6 - 10.0)微米。有孢子囊残体。孢子囊无斯氏体。子孢子呈香蕉形,一端钝圆,另一端渐细。并对蜥蜴科的艾美球虫种类进行了比较。
