Species
Example species within the genus Tritrichomonas are T. augusta and T. foetus, the latter of which characteristically interacts with bacteria that reside in the intestinal tract by adhering to the intestinal epithelium of the host. T. augusta have been observed in the rough-skinned newt, Taricha granulosa, in certain northern California coastal counties in the United States.[2]

gollark: They're simple, which is important to avoid confusing voters with complicated systems, and I think not subject to Arrow's theorem.
gollark: I've actually looked at this a bit because I have a lot of free time for random research stuff, and it seems like approval voting and score voting would be good.
