Epizootic situation on piroplasmosis in cattle is clarified and the species composition of ixodid ticks parasitizing animals in conditions of the republic of Dagestan is determined. The species composition of piroplasma, its proportion as well as dynamics of diseases of cattle are identified by examination of blood films taken from 289 head of cattle with piroplasmosis. The efficacy of chemotherapeutic drugs is studied on animals spontaneously infected with Piroplasma bigeminum, Francaiella colchika and Theileria annulata. In the territory of the examined farms piroplasms P. bigeminum, F. colсhika, T. annulata, A. marginaliа and ixodid ticks Boophilus calcaratus, Rhipicephalus bursa, Hyalomma anatolicum, H. scupenze are most common. Neozidin is applied for treatment of cattle with fransaiellesis, piroplasmosis and babesiosis. For treatment of cattle with theileriosis the following drug combination should be applied: Sulfantrol + Neozidin or Sulfantrol + Veriben with simultaneous use of antibiotics.
