    AnnotationWe provide a model for studies on coccidia. Eimeria ranae is redescribed from frogs, Rana spp., based on morphology, host specificity and molecular phylogenetic data. Experimental transmissions show that the host specificity of E. ranae is restricted to the g. Rana and that isolates from tadpoles and adults are conspecific. Experimentally confirmed disappearance of infection during metamorphosis suggests that infections in adults result from reinfections. Poikilotherm-host Eimeria possessing Stieda body (SB) are for the first time included in molecular phylogenetic analysis. E. ranae and Eimeria arnyi from snake form a well-supported clade, basal to other SB-bearing coccidia. The other reptile-host eimerians, Eimeria tropidura and Choleoeimeria sp., possessing bivalved sporocysts, form distinct basal lineage of the eimeriids. In review of anuran-host Eimeria, 3 oocyst morphotypes, apparently correlating with the character of endogenous development, are recognized and characterized.
