Abstract

ABSTRACT The Cestode, the results of a study of which are embodied in the present paper, occurs, usually in abundance, in the large intestine of the Port Jackson shark. It is one of these remarkable forms to which attention appears to have been first specially directed by P. J. van Beneden (1 and 2), in which the proglottides are set free from the posterior end of the strobila long before full maturity has been reached, and only attain a stage corresponding to that of the “ripe” proglottides of a Tænia after having pursued an independent existence for some considerable time.
