Different <jats:italic>Echinococcus<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>Taenia<\/jats:italic> species of domestic and wild carnivores pose a potential risk to human population. High populations of free-roaming dogs (FRDs) in urban areas of Iran and widespread contamination of the environment with dog feces is a potential source of infecting people living in the urban regions with cystic echinococcosis (CE). Our knowledge on the risk of CE transmission in the urban settings in the endemic regions is limited. The present study surveyed the species and genotypes of <jats:italic>E. granulosus<\/jats:italic> sensu lato and other taeniids by examining feces of free-roaming dogs in the urban areas in the city of Kerman, southeastern Iran.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The city was divided into 100 consecutive blocks of which 25 blocks were randomly selected. Fecal samples of FRDs were counted, mapped and fresh samples were collected. Then Zinc chloride flotation, and sequential sieving was performed, and the samples were examined under an inverted microscope. Single individual taeniid eggs were isolated, partial <jats:italic>nad1<\/jats:italic> gene was amplified and sequenced to identify species and genotypes.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>In total 5607 fecal samples of dogs were mapped and 83 fresh samples were collected. Taeniid eggs were detected in nine fecal samples (10.8%) from seven out of the 25 city blocks (28.0%). <jats:italic>Echinococcus<\/jats:italic> eggs were found in four samples (4.8%) from three city blocks, two samples containing <jats:italic>E. granulosus<\/jats:italic> sensu stricto (2.4%), two samples containing <jats:italic>E. canadensis<\/jats:italic> G6\/7 (2.4%).
