Coccidia (Coc·cid·ia) (kok-sidŽe-ə) [Gr. kokkos berry]  a subclass of parasitic protozoa (class Sporozoea, phylum Apicomplexa) found in both vertebrates, including humans, and higher invertebrates; see coccidiosis. Their life cycle involves merogony, gametogony, and sporogony, and gamonts are usually present, with mature gamonts being small and typically intracellular, without an epimerite or mucron. Syzygy does not usually occur, but if it does, it involves anisogamous gametes. The subclass comprises three orders: Agamococcidiida, Protococcidiida, and Eucoccidiida.
