Abstract

Scanning electron microscopic observations have been made on the tegument and body pores of the wormIsoparorchis hypselobagri (Billet 1898) Odhner 1927, collected from the air bladder of the freshwater fishWallago attu (Schn.). The dorsal and ventral surfaces show characteristic differences under high resolution. Muscles, in hexagonal shape, are arranged on dorsal surface which give a brick floor appearance whereas the ventral surface is occupied by loose, irregular muscles. Sensory papillae are arranged in the excretory pore region around the excretory opening.
