Gravid segment of Tcenia saginata, showing abnormal, bilaterally symmetrical arrangement of the genital organs. P., P., the two genital pores, from which the two vaginse, V., V., lead to two shell-glands, S., S. From these the main stems (Ut., Ut.) of the two uteri extend forward parallel to each other. unknown in Tcenia. Were T. saginata not well known to be a variable species, such a peculiarity might have been con- sidered sufficient ground for creating not merely a new species but even a new genus. There can, however, be no question of this kind in this case, for two reasons. In the first place, the strobila is not entirely composed of double segments, but here and there we find a normal segment with a single pore and median uterus. In the second place, the reduplication extends also to the male organs—not only to the ducts, but.
