Extract

Data concerning the life cycle of the various species of the genus Trichuris are somewhat controversial. The present paper is devoted to the study of T. muris, a common parasite of the caecum of wild house-mice and rats. The possibility of transfer of T. muris in the laboratory mice would enable the author to solve various contradictory points.
