. Fiy-. ^S. (() I'icco of the intestine of a fowl showititr the notliiles (reiluceil tiin'-tliircl). (/>) The niuct>s:i of the in- testine sliowiiijr ulcerated areas; also several small and one larjrer tapeworm attached to the intestine (reduced one-thirdl. (<) A cross-section of the intestine illustratinjf the thickening'of the wall due to a lar^re number of the nodules; also a portion of a tapeworm which has pene- trated the mucous membrane, magnified. have the appearance of closely set protuberances, some being so small that the elevation caused by them is scarcely visible, while others are larger, reaching 1 -6 inch in diameter. The larger nodules are of a pale or dark yellowish color, while the smaller ones vary in shade from this to the neutral graj' of the normal serous membrane. To the touch they give the sensa- tion of small, oval, solid bodies in the wall of the in- testine. The mucous surface presents similar eleva- tions and attached to this over the elevations a number of tapeworms are seen. In the niv^re advanced cases a variable number of small ulcerated depressions, 1-25 inch in diameter or less, are seen over the larger nodules caused by sloughing of the mucous membrane.
