Extract

The observations recently set forth by Dr Leiper, and by Dr Sambon in a discussion, have led us to re-examine the ova of S. japonicum in the material which we have at hand. This material was described previously by one of us together with a report of some comparative measurements of the ova of this species of trematode furnished by Dr Shiga.
