    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé La première étude concernant la composition lipidique des spores de Microsporidies (Protozoaires) a été réalisée. L'analyse porte sur la teneur en acides gras totaux des spores appartenant à trois espèces différentes parasitant la même espèce-hôte. Les différences dans les résultats des analyses obtenues pour chaque espèce méritent d'être soulignées et également l'abondance du 18:2ω6 chezThelohania maenadis (43%). Les variations observées dans les compositions des acides gras du muscle et de l'hémolymphe provenant deCarcinus mediterraneus sain et parasité parThelohania maenadis ne permettent pas de mettre en évidence une action importante du parasite sur le métabolisme lipidique de l'hôte.
    Notes: Abstract This study concerns the first investigation of the lipid composition of Microsporidia. Analysis of fatty acids in spores from three species (Thelohania maenadis, Ameson (Nosema) pulvis, andOrmieresia carcini), which are muscular parasites of the same host-species,Carcinus mediterraneus (Crustacea: Decapoda: Brachyura) has revealed a number of important differences with respect to the relative amounts of fatty acids. Especially interesting is the case of linoleic acid (C 18:2ω6) which reaches 43% of the total fatty acids inT. maenadis, but only about 1% in the other species (Table 1). The fatty acid pattern is different in the three species, but certain acids predominate: linoleic (C 18:2ω6) and oleic acids (C 18:1) inT. maenadis, palmitic (C 16:0) and oleic acids (C 18:1) in the other species. Disturbances in the fatty acids of the host as a result of muscular microsporidiosis were also investigated. InC. mediterraneus, hemolymph and muscular fatty acid levels were not found to be notably modified (Table 2).
