Of the worms examined by us, the outpocketing was most marked in those from Mule E, and least marked in those from Horse B. Occasionally a well-developed uterus was seen which contained few or no eggs eind a mass of debris. Eggs. Fully mature eggs were found only in the last few segments. The diameter of the outer envelope was about 8o//, and that of the embryo about i6/«, whilst the length of the horns of the pyriform apparatus is about i8//. Yolk granules about 7/x in.
