An Interesting Form of Moniezia (? sp.) with a Double Set of Interproglottidal Glands, from Goats in Lyallpur, Pakistan

Extract

A large number of cestodes from the intestines of sheep and goats were collected from the slaughter houses in and around Lyallpur city of West Pakistan in the begining of 1965 and preserved in separate containers in connection with some other work. On examination of the collection made from goats, a specimen was found which had the characteristics of genus Moniezia but was not referable to the species so far described. On further examination two complete specimens were isolated from the collection and stained after fixation under moderate pressure.
