  • <p>The eastern Qinghai-Tibet plateau of China is a highly endemic region of echinococcosis where <em>Echinococcus granulosus</em> sensu stricto (sheep strain), <em>Echinococcus multilocularis</em>, and <em>Echinococcus shiquicus</em> are distributed sympatrically. We developed a polymerase chain reaction-based restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method for the identification of the three species in this region. The PCR-RFLP showed the dual infection of animals with different <em>Echinococcus</em> spp. The first case was a domestic dog concurrently infected with adults of <em>E. granulosus</em> and <em>E. multilocularis</em>. The second case was a plateau pika (<em>Ochotona curzoniae</em>) harboring metacestodes of <em>E. multilocularis </em>and <em>E. shiquicus</em> in the liver. The high susceptibility of some mammalian hosts to the parasites and the high prevalence of the three co-endemic species probably increase the chance of mixed infections in the eastern Tibetan plateau.</p>
