The 8 coccidia species found in the faeces of 91 wild pigs were: Eimeria debliecki, E. neodebliecki, E. perminuta, E. polita, E. porci, E. scabra, E. spinosa and E. suis. Balantidium coli, Entamoeba polecki, and an Iodamoeba sp. were found in some of the wild pigs and the 842 domestic pigs examined. A Chilomastix sp. occurred in a few of the adult domestic pigs. Morphologically the Iodamoeba and Chilomastix spp. resembled I. buetschlii and C. mesnili found in man.
