FIGURE 2. N. atlanticus, paratype, mm. long, flattened, from caecum of eider duck, ex- perimental infection, ventral view. These figures show variation in arrangement of ventral pits and loops of the uterus; also differences in size of organs in a pressed specimen. Notocotylus atlanticus n. sp.

FIGURE 2. N. atlanticus, paratype, mm. long, flattened, from caecum of eider duck, ex- perimental infection, ventral view. These figures show variation in arrangement of ventral pits and loops of the uterus; also differences in size of organs in a pressed specimen. Notocotylus atlanticus n. sp. (Figs. 1-7) Adult (Figs. 1, 2) The description is based on ten gravid specimens mounted in toto and six cut in serial sections, in sagittal, transverse and frontal planes. The worms are ovate to elongate, flattened dorsoventrally, convex dorsally and concave ventrally. They measure to mm. in length and to mm. in width. The cuticula is unarmed, except for the ventral surface, which bears very fine spines, observed.
