Five Eimeria species were reported from domestic rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus domesticus L.) caught from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. According to their prevalences, they were: Eimeria perfarans (65%), E. magna (45%), E. stiedae (25%), E. exigua (20%) and E. piriformis (10%). 90% of the examined rabbits were positive and mixed infection with two or three Eimeria species was most frequent. E. stiedae, E. piriformis and E. exigua were identified and recorded for the first time from rabbits in Saudi Arabia and are considered as new locality or geographical distribution.
从沙特阿拉伯吉达捕获的家兔（穴兔家养变种）中发现了五种艾美耳球虫。根据它们的感染率，分别为：穿孔艾美耳球虫（65%）、大型艾美耳球虫（45%）、斯氏艾美耳球虫（25%）、微小艾美耳球虫（20%）和梨形艾美耳球虫（10%）。90%的检测兔子呈阳性，最常见的是两种或三种艾美耳球虫的混合感染。斯氏艾美耳球虫、梨形艾美耳球虫和微小艾美耳球虫是首次在沙特阿拉伯的兔子中被鉴定和记录，被视为新的产地或地理分布。
