A parasitological examination of 2,500 faecal samples of cattle was carried out in Plateau State, Nigeria, to determine prevalence, seasonal distribution and sources of various species of Eimeria in both sexes, age groups, breeds and husbandry systems. Effects of temperatures on sporulation of Eimeria oocysts and chemical analysis of the Eimeria oocysts were also determined. Out of 2500 samples examined, 1567 i.e 62.68% were positive for twelve species of Eimeria. E. alabamensis occurred in 220 [8.80%], E. auburnensis 806 [32.24%], E. bovis 914 [36.56%], E.brassiliensis 240 [9.60%], E. bukidnonensis 580 [23.20%], E. canadensis 236 [9.44%] E. cylindrica 556 [22.24%], E. ellipsoidalis 722 [28.88%], E. pellita 279 [11.16%]. E subsphserical 295 [11.80%], E. wyomingensis 445 [17.80%] and E. zurnii 1043 [41.72%]. E.zurnii 54.88% was predominant in the Jos Abattoir. E. cylindrical 81.02% in Naraguta, E. auburnensis 76.08% in Nassarawa Gwom, E. zurnii, 97.52% in Rukuba, E. bovis 29.36% in Vom and E. ellipsoidalis 94.62% in
