[Sarcocystis alceslatrans (Apicomplexa) from a palaearctic elk (Ruminantia)]

Sarcocysts from a palaearctic moose have been studied for the first time by light and electron microscopy. Because of coincidences in morphology of the cysts, especially of the cyst wall structure and the cystozoides, with the North American species Sarcocystis alceslatrans DUBEY, 1980, they are assigned to this species.
