Usually they become as large as a walnut, or even larger, and the interior contains hundreds of scolices, each showing a head. The cystic phase only develops completely in animals whose brains contain a limited number of cysts, and in such the signs of turn-sick are well developed. In others, where the numbers are large (ten to fifteen embryos or more), death occurs during the primary stage, usually towards the end of the first month, in consequence of acute encepha- litis and without any of the symptoms of turn-sick. The number of animals attacked is sometimes enormous. Moussu.
