title: Prevalence of macroscopically detectable Sarcocystis in North Dakota ducks.
abstract: Hunter-killed ducks were examined in North Dakota from 1969 through 1972 for prevalence of macroscopically detectable cysts of Sarcocysitis. Fifty-seven of 632 (9%) adult dabbling ducks and 1 of 420 (0.24%) juveniles were infected. Sarcocystis was not detected in 169 adult and 91 juvenile diving ducks.
