SYNOPSIS. This study augments our knowledge of several ultrastructural features of Encephalitozoon cuniculi and provides evidence that this species is disporous. We support Cali's view that Encephalitozoon is distinct from Nosema and should be treated as a valid genus. We compare these with 2 other disporous genera, Glugea and Perezia, and conclude that Glugea is also distinct but Perezia is a junior synonym of Nosema.
