Abstract
⺠Cryptosporidium tyzzeri n. sp. is described based on molecular and biologic evidence. ⺠It has smaller oocysts than Cryptosporidium parvum and does not infect calves and lambs. ⺠Unlike C. parvum in mice, it does not appear to infect the colon. ⺠It is genetically distinct from C. parvum and other Cryptosporidium spp. ⺠Life cycle stages are described by light and electron microscopy.
