Trichomonas gallinae is a cosmopolitan parasite of birds including finches, pigeons, doves, turkeys, chickens, parrots, and raptors (hawks, golden eagle, etc.). The condition in birds of prey is called frounce. [1] It is believed to be an ancient pathogen causing frounce-like symptoms in theropod dinosaurs. [2]
Trichomonas causes disease in humans and in birds. In humans, the causative species is Trichomonas vaginalis and Trichomonas tenax. [3] [5] [6] In birds, the causative species are Trichomonas gallinae, Trichomonas gypactinii, and Trichomonas stableri. [14] [15] [7]
Trichomoniasis (trich) is an infectious disease caused by the parasite Trichomonas vaginalis. [2] About 70% of affected people do not have symptoms when infected. [2] When symptoms occur, they typically begin 5 to 28 days after exposure. [1]

Several related trichomonads may be mistaken for Tritrichomonas foetus, including: Trichomonas vaginalis, Trichomonas gallinae, and Trichomonas tenax. A study by Richard Felleisen found that identification of T. foetus using Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) resulted in a more accurate identification.
Trichomonas; Trichomonadidae is a family of anaerobic protozoa. Many of its members are parasitic, causing disease in humans or domestic animals. [2] References
Viral replication is cytoplasmic. Entry into the host cell is achieved by attachment to host receptors, which mediates endocytosis. Replication follows the double-stranded RNA virus replication model. Double-stranded RNA virus transcription is the method of transcription. Protozoan parasite trichomonas vaginalis serve as the natural host. [1]
