3.3. Trichinella britovi

Trichinella britovi is an encapsulated and freeze-tolerant species that was first described in 1992 ( Pozio et al., 1992a). Trichinella britovi has a temperate palearctic distribution spanning from Northwestern Africa through most of Europe and into central Asia ( Pozio, 2016a). Trichinella britovi is predominantly found in sylvatic carnivores but also occasionally in domestic pigs ( Gottstein et al., 2009).
