In this study, the trypsin technique was used to investigate the presence and prevalence of Sarcocystis spp. in the cattle in Konya province. Trypsin technique was able to detect Sarcocystis ssp. in 92 of 100 cattle in which macroscopically cysts were not observed. Corresponding values for the Sarcocystis species were as follows: single infections 74 S. bovicanis, 15 for S. bovifelis, 3 S. bovihominis; in mixed infections 7 S. bovicanis+S. bovihominis, 3 S. bovicanis+S. bovifelis, 3 S. bovihominis+S. bovifelis and 20 S. bovicanis+S. bovihominis+S. bovifelis respectively. In coclusion, microscopically cysts observed the highest number in eosophaugs among samples examined. In this study, Sarcocystis spp. are very common and S. bovicanis is the dominant species in cattle in the Konya region
