External parasites infection is one of the most important factors that cause disease outbreak in farm animls. The present study included examinationof blood samples for primary blood parasites transmitted to farm animals by ticks. The study recorded three species : Babesia. Motasi, Babesia. ovis, Trypanosoma. congolense, Theileria. lestoquardi, Theileria. annulata, Trypanosoma. vivax. It showed accuracy and sensitivity of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test to detect and identify of blood parasites types. Also the study showed the need to use PCR technology to develop a genetic fingerprinting all of species that infect local animals and types of blood parasites in Saudi Arabia which are difficult to identify in terms of their types accurately by conventional methods. This study is considerd the first in this field.
