Abstract

In the extensive literature devoted to this worm axe many anatomical descriptions, the earlier of which are, according to modern standards, vague and superficial. But among recent authors de Man (1910) has given a full and illustrated account with detailed measurements of some forty specimens, an account to which it might seem difficult to add anything of importance. However, the present writer is preparing a paper on the bionomics of the worm, and therefore considers a brief anatomical description to be desirable, particularly as de Man's paper may not be easily accessible to those interested
