ABSTRACT
A detailed study of the structure and ultrastructure of Sparganum proliferum was made possible for the first time thanks to the successful in vitro and in vivo maintenance of this rare parasite. Although S. proliferum exhibits many of the classical tegumental and parenchymal structures previously described for other larval cestodes, these are either arranged in a distinct fashion or, in some cases, may be completely different. Among the latter and of special interest are the single or multiple parenchymal cavities, surrounded by tegument, which in some instances appear to act as a primitive digestive tract.
