Abstract:
The morphological changes associated with the ontogenetic transformation of the scolex from larva to adult were investigated in the tapeworm Calliobothrium verticillatum (Rudolphi, 1819) van Beneden, 1850 by comparing the morphology of plerocercoids collected from the hermit crab Pagurus pollicaris Say, 1817 with that of adult worms collected from the shark Mustelus canis (Mitchell, 1815), using scanning electron microscopy. The apex of the scolex in young plerocercoids bore a conspicuous sucker. Each bothridium was flat and divided into four regions: an anterior oval region with two marginal

Abstract:
ABSTRACTThe surface antigens of oncosphere, cysticercoid, adult scolex and adult strobila (other than scolex) of Hymenolepis nana differ critically from one another. When the oncosphere of H. nana undergoes differentiation and development into the mature tapeworm, the infected mouse first produces anti-oncosphere antibody, followed by anti-cysticercoid, anti-adult scolex and finally anti-strobila (other than scolex region) antibodies of IgG, IgM and IgA isotypes as detected by indirect immunofluorescent antibody test. The parasite changed its surface antigens throughout its differentiation and

Abstract:
The strobila attached to the primary scolex of Haplobothrium globuliforme fragments to produce numerous secondary scolices. These secondary scolices develop mature and gravid proglottides. The secondary scolex consists of four shallow disclike bothria which surround a raised apical area. The tegument bears small microtriches, 0.6 μm long, and the tegumental cytoplasm is filled with electron-dense discs and mitochondria. Ducts filled with electron-dense secretory bodies were seen in the scolex and occasionally were seen to fuse with the tegument. The tegument of the neck region is similar to th

Trigonocotyle sexitesticulae sp.nov. is described from specimens collected from pygmy killer whales (Feresa attenuata) in Florida. This species is differentiated from other Trigonocotyle species by the minute overall dimensions of the scolex (372–523 μm wide), strobila (maximum 13.7 mm long in a pregravid specimen), and cirrus sac (40–54 μm in length), an unusual number of testes (6), and the configuration of the scolex and genital atrium. Among other species of Trigonocotyle the dimensions of the scolex, strobila, and cirrus sac far exceed those of T. sexitesticulae, and there are typically &

An enigmatic new tapeworm is described from pelagic thresher sharks in México and Taiwan. While lsrRNA (D1-D3) data robustly place it in the Litobothriidea, it bears essentially no morphological resemblance to other members of the order. Instead it superficially resembles the freshwater fish-inhabiting Caryophyllidea. Its scolex consists of a simple dome-shaped scolex proper and an extensive cephalic peduncle housing four distinct tissue types. It is hyperapolytic, thus reproductive anatomy is unknown.

Abstract:
The music of Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy (1809-47) has earned a prominent position in the orchestral repertoire. One of his greatest works, and certainly one of the most performed, is his Violin Concerto in E minor, Op. 64. The work enjoys much popularity with, and recognition by, soloists, orchestras, and conductors alike. Even with its fame and familiarity, it remains a work that must be carefully studied and prepared by the conductor. This document presents an examination of a conductor’s performance preparation of the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto. The purpose of this examination is to equip

Abstract:
Digital Promise sought to create and validate two sets of Historical Thinking Skills rubrics for use in its evaluation of Gates Ventures’ World History Project (WHP) curriculum: one for evaluating teacher-assigned activities, and another for evaluating the student work those activities produced. Adopting a principled assessment development approach called Evidence Centered Design (Mislevy et al., 2003), the Digital Promise team began by conducting an academic literature review to inform rubric design, then piloted the draft rubrics to test their validity by having expert world history teachers

Abstract:
This paper evaluates Programa Joven, a training program conducted by Argentina's Ministerio del Trabajo. The paper adapts and applies a non-experimental evaluation methodology to answer the following questions: (1) Did Programa Joven increase the labor income of the trainees? (2) Did Programa Joven increase the probability of employment? (3) What was the rate of return to dollars spent on Programa Joven? The basic methodology used was the Matching Estimators approach. The application of this methodology requires two steps: first, the estimation of a model of program participation (propensity s

Abstract:
This report presents an analysis of the threat posed by active volcanoes in Canada and outlines directives to bring Canadian volcano monitoring and research into alignment with global best practices. We analyse 28 Canadian volcanoes in terms of their relative threat to people, aviation and infrastructure. The methodology we apply to assess volcanic threat was developed by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) as part of the 2005 National Volcano Early Warning System (NVEWS). Each volcano is scored on a number of hazard and exposure factors, producing an overall threat score. The overall t
