Eimeria cahirinensis Couch et al., 1997 was found in faecal samples of Acomys dimidiatus from three different localities in the Near East. Twenty-two of 104 (21%) A. dimidiatus trapped on both the south- and north-facing slopes of "Evolution Canyon", Lower Nahal Oren, Mt. Carmel, Israel in August 2001 and 2002 were infected with E. cahirinensis. Oocysts were also obtained from a single individual of A. dimidiatus trapped in Wadi Ramm, Jordan in the summer of 1999. Laboratory-reared Acomys spp. were inoculated to determine the prepatent and patent period, sporulation time, site of infection, immunogenicity, pathology and morphology of E. cahirinensis. Stages were localised in the apical part of duodenal and jejunal villi. An experimental inoculation of several rodent genera revealed the host range of E. cahirinensis to be limited to the genus Acomys.

Eimeria cahirinensis Couch et al., 1997 byla nalezena ve vzorcích z Acomys dimidiatus ze tří různých míst na Blízkém Východě. 22 z 104 (21%) A. dimidiatus odchycených na jižním a severním svahu "Evolution Canyon", Lower Nahal Oren, Mt. Carmel, Israel byly infikovány E. cahirinensis. Oocysty byly také získány z 1 A. dimidiatus z Wadi Ramm, Jordan. Laboratorní bodlinatky(Acomys spp.) byly infikovány s cílem stanovit prepatentní a patentní periodu, délku sporulace, místo infekce, imunogenitu, patogenitu ad morfologii stadií endogenního vývoje E. cahirinensis. Ten je lokalizován v apikální části duodena a jejuna. Experimentální infekce zástupců řady hlodavčích druhů prokázala infektivitu pouze pro bodlinatky r. Acomys.
