Extract

As there is no complete or adequate description of this parasite of dogs and foxes, and as it is proving to be of considerable importance in the newly established fox-breeding industry, it was thought advisable to prepare an account of its morphology. The material from which this description was made was obtained from a British fox which died at the Zoological Gardens, London, in June, 1923.
