Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is an important zoonotic diseases caused by larval form of . The material of this study was the gray wolf (), which was found dead in the rural area of Bingol province of Turkey. The animal was brought to Veterinary Faculty for necropsy and many of adult spp. obtained. A total of 9 whole adult worms were morphologically examined under the microscope, gDNA was isolated from individual samples, a partial mt-CO1 gene fragment (875 bp) was amplified with PCR and sequenced. According to the phylogenetic analysis, six worms were characterized as , while three were reported as (G6/7). It was found that the haplotypes of both species were similar to previously published haplotypes. This is the first report in which and (G6/7) adult parasites were detected together in a gray wolf's intestine The findings are important in that it draws attention to the importance of wild cycle in the spread of CE.
囊性棘球蚴病（CE）是由 幼虫形式引起的一种重要的人畜共患病。本研究的材料是一只灰狼（ ），它在土耳其宾格尔省农村地区被发现死亡。这只动物被带到兽医学院进行尸检，并获得了许多成虫 种。总共9条完整的成虫在显微镜下进行形态学检查，从单个样本中分离出基因组DNA，用PCR扩增并测序一个部分线粒体细胞色素c氧化酶亚基1（mt-CO1）基因片段（875 bp）。根据系统发育分析，6条虫被鉴定为 ，而3条被报告为 （G6/7）。发现这两个物种的单倍型与先前发表的单倍型相似。这是首次在灰狼肠道中同时检测到 和 （G6/7）成虫寄生虫的报告。这些发现的重要性在于它提请人们注意野生循环在CE传播中的重要性。
