Extract

The following is a description of a Cysticercoid obtained during investigation of the larval cestode fauna of Dundee and Arbroath districts (Harper, 1930). The Cysticercoid was first obtained from Helodrilus (Allolobophora longus Cede) the host containing four larvae; later, two similar larvae were found in Lumbricus terrestris L. Many specimens of these hosts were dissected but only the above two infections were observed.
