Ten genetic variants, or genotypes designated as (G1-G10), are distributed worldwide based on genetic diversity. The objective of this study was to provide some sequence data and phylogeny of EG isolates recovered from the Sudanese one-humped camel <jats:italic>(Camelus dromedaries<\/jats:italic>). Fifty samples of hydatid cysts were collected from the one- humped camels <jats:italic>(Camelus dromedaries<\/jats:italic>) at Taboul slaughter house, central Sudan<jats:italic>.<\/jats:italic> DNAs were extracted from protoscolices and\/or associated germinal layers of hydatid cysts using a commercial kit. The mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 (NADH1) gene and the cytochrome C oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) gene were used as targets for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification. The PCR products were purified and partial sequences were generated. Sequences were further examined by sequence analysis and subsequent phylogeny to compare these sequences to those from known strains of EG circulating globally.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>The identity of the PCR products were confirmed as NADH1 and cox1 nucleotide sequences using the Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) of NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information, Bethesda, MD). The phylogenetic analysis showed that 98% (n = 49) of the isolates clustered with <jats:italic>Echinococcus canadensis<\/jats:italic> genotype 6 (G6), whereas only one isolate (2%) clustered with <jats:italic>Echinococcus ortleppi<\/jats:italic> (G5).<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>This investigation expands on the existing sequence data generated from EG isolates recovered from camel in the Sudan.
