Iodamoeba butschlii; Chilomastix mesnili *The cysts of E. histolytica, E. dispar, and E. moshkovskii are morphologically identical by stool microscopy. When cysts are detected, stool antigen testing is recommended to distinguish the potentially pathogenic E. histolytica from the more common, nonpathogenic species.

Iodamoeba butschlii is a non-pathogenic amoeba with world wide distribution although not as common as E. coli or E. nana. Its life cycle is similar to that of E. histolytica but is non invasive. Morphology of cysts. Cysts of I. butschlii are 9 - 15 in diameter and have one nucleus in mature cysts usually eccentrically placed.
Entamoeba coli, E. hartmanni, E. polecki, Endolimax nana, and Iodamoeba buetschlii are generally considered nonpathogenic and reside in the large intestine of the human host. Entamoeba gingivalis is also considered nonpathogenic and resides in the oral cavity of the human host, in the gingival pockets at the base of the teeth. Life Cycles.
