*Unknown aetiology
  −
*Major cell involved is eosinphil
  −
*Usually noticed at slaughter - green muscle discoloration
  −
*May be caused by degenteration of [[Sarcocystis|''Sarcocystis'' spp.]]
  −
*Grossly:
  −
**Green discolored areas, well demarcated
  −
**Mostly in muscles of back and thighs
  −
*Histologically:
  −
**Massive eosinophil infiltration
  −
**Muscle fibres may degenerate
  −
**In old lesions - endimysial fibrosis, myofibre atrophy, some regeneration, lymphocytes, plasma cells, macrophages and few eosinophils
  −
**Capsule may form
