ABSTRACT
There are 23 Sarcocystis species in which reptiles serve as intermediate hosts (Table 22.1). Few denitive hosts are known, but 7 snakes play this role, especially for species parasitizing lizards and geckoes (S. stenodactylicolubris, S. gongyli, S. chalcidicolubris, S. acanthocolubri, S. ameivamastigodryasi, S. lacerate, S. podarcicolubris).
