The development of the macrogamete of Eimeria mivati Edgar and Seibold 1964 was studied with the electron microscope. Development of the young gamont was characterized by a loss of organelles such as the apical complex, subpellicular microtubules, rhoptries and micronemes, followed by an increase in micropores, mitochondria, rough endoplasmic reticulum (rER), and Golgi complexes. Nuclear detachment bodies and canaliculi were present in maturing macrogamonts. Amylopectin was first observed as small electron-dense rod-like bodies that eventually became large electron-transparent bodies. Type II wall-forming bodies developed in the cisternae of the rER. Type I wall-forming bodies appeared shortly thereafter in close association with numerous Golgi complexes. Many small vesicles located between the cisternae of the rER and the Golgi complexes formed what appeared to be a secretory pathway whereby protein formed in the cisternae and, modified by the Golgi complex, may produce the type I wall body material. The outer wall of the oocyst developed between two distal membranes on the surface of the macrogamete. Although the actual mechanism of deposition of the wall material was not seen, it was probably by some secretory process. Wall-forming bodies did not fuse.
