Extract

Description: The specimens were collected from three Bartailed Godwits shot in the winters of 1956 and 1957. The description below applies mainly to the first infestation found. There are certain differences between the infestations which are noted later. There were up to 150 individuals in each infestation, varying from immature worms consisting of a scolex and a few proglottides to mature strobilas containing some 300 segments and reaching a length of 75 mm. The maximum breadth of the strobila is 1·8 mm. The onset of maturity is accompanied by a marked increase in the breadth of the strobila and the mature proglottides are broader than long.
