Rectal contents of 56 adult bobcats (Lynx rufus) in 2014 and 2017 from remote areas of Mississippi were examined microscopically for parasite stages after the sugar flotation method. Among the helminths, eggs/larvae found were: Paragonimus sp. in 12, Toxocara cati-like in 16, trichurid–capillarid-like in 3, hookworms in 27, and lungworms in 28. Among the protozoa, oocysts/cysts found were: Cystoisospora felis-like in 2, Cystoisospora rivolta-like in 4, Cryptosporidium sp. in 1, and Giardia sp. in 1. Additionally, numerous Sarcocystis sporocysts were detected in the feces of 12 bobcats; sporocysts were described morphologically. The status of C. felis derived from the bobcat and other wild felids is reviewed and compared with C. felis from the domestic cat. It is the first record of C. rivolta from the bobcat. The presence of eggs of Paragonimus sp. and T. cati in feces of 21.4% and 28.5%, respectively, suggests a role for the bobcat in the dissemination of these zoonotic helminths in the environment in the wild. Taxonomy of coccidia of wild Felidae is discussed and Isospora lyncisLevine and Ivens, 1981 from the Lynx is now regarded as a species inquirenda.

2014 年和 2017 年，对来自密西西比州偏远地区的 56 只成年山猫 ( Lynx rufus )的直肠内容物在糖浮选法后进行了显微镜检查，了解寄生虫阶段。在蠕虫中，发现的卵/幼虫有：并殖吸虫。12 种，猫弓蛔虫样 16 种，毛细线虫样 3 种，钩虫 27 种，肺虫 28 种。在原生动物中，发现的卵囊/包囊为： 猫等孢子虫样 2 种，里沃尔塔类囊等孢子虫 4 种，隐孢子虫属sp。1 和贾第鞭毛虫sp。1. 此外，在12只山猫的粪便中检出大量肉孢子虫孢子囊；对孢子被进行形态学描述。对来自山猫和其他野生猫科动物的猫科动物的状况进行了回顾，并与来自家猫的猫科动物进行了比较。这是来自山猫的C. rivolta的首次记录。并殖吸虫卵的存在。粪便中的 T. cati和T. cati分别占 21.4% 和 28.5%，表明山猫在野生环境中传播这些人畜共患蠕虫中发挥了作用。讨论了野生猫科球虫的分类学，并且来自山猫的 Isospora lyncis Levine 和 Ivens，1981现在被视为一个物种探究。
