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

Abstract:

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 &

Abstract:

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 present communication deals with the description of a new cestode <em>Stilesia jadhavae</em> sp.nov. from the intestine of goat <em>Capra hircus</em> at Patoda tehsil of Beed district. The examined parasites were long with scolex, immature, mature and gravid proglottids. The scolex of the worm is large, quadrangular, broad anteriorly, narrow posteriorly, distinctly marked off from the strobila; suckers are four, large in size, oval in shape, arranged in two pairs; neck short; mature segments small in size, broader than long having only one set of reproductive organs in

In all patients after hydatid cystectomy, RCs were treated with 33% perhydrol. The scolicidal activity of 33% perhydrol was tested in vitro when the latter acted on protoscoleces obtained during the operation. In addition, a histological examination of the fibrous capsule (FC) was performed before a

SUMMARYWe studied the ‘crowding effect’ inTribolium confusuminfected withHymenolepis diminuta. Manipulations included age and number of parasites, and diet, sex, age and number of exposures of hosts. Volume per parasite was unaffected until an intensity of at least 5–10 parasites per host, then declined approximately inversely as intensities increased. Parasite size was affected by host sex but not age or reproductive status. Host diet affected parasite size and the impact of crowding. Daily gain in parasite volume peaked partway through the developmental period and preceded the first evidence

SUMMARYHymenolepis diminutamigrates up the small intestine in response to feeding the host 1 g of glucose. Locomotion during migration may result from fixed patterns of retrograde peristaltic-like waves in the strobila of the tapeworm which propel the organism against the normal expulsive forces in the small intestine. The peristaltic-like locomotory waves occur in a gradient along the strobila with a frequency of 24·9±0·9 cycles/min in the anterior segments of the worm, decreasing linearly to 6·6±1·4 cycles/min in the posterior segments of the worm.

AbstractUltrastructural features of juvenile cestodes (metacestodes) can provide useful characters for phylogenetic and evolutionary analyses. Until now, however, they have been relatively little utilised (Beveridge 2001, Chervy 2002). The postembryonic development and structure of fully formed metacestodes were examined in two cyclophyllideans: Taenia parva Baer, 1926 (Taeniidae); and Sobolevitaenia verulamii (Mettrick, 1958) Korniushin, 1972 (Dilepididae). In T. parva, three developmental stages were recognized: (1) an early stage of exogenous budding at the surface of the central vesicle; (

The larva was found to be covered by palmate or paw-like microtriches, not only on the adherent surface of the bothridia as earlier described from adult trypanorhynch cestodes, but all over the plerocercus down to the region of pars proliferus. In the latter region ‘normal’ cestode microtriches were observed. On the surface of the plerocercus larva of Molicola horridus, however, no structure or microtriches were observed due to a true invagination of the scolex part of the larva.
