Abstract
The distribution of Cryptosporidium isolates in urban area of Northern Tunisia was dominated by the anthroponotic transmission via C. hominis species and the IIc subtype of C. parvum. However, zoonotic transmission is still possible in this region via zoonotic subtypes of C. parvum (IIa and IId) and C. meleagridis (IIIb). Subtype diversity was higher in this area.
