Further, it appears as if at this stage sexual differences appeared, for some of these cysts- divide up into about a dozen macromerozoits (Fig. 72), while others divide up into twice as many or more micromerozoits. Corresponding to these we have free forms in the liver, twelve by three m and eight by two m respectively. According to wSchaudinn it is transmitted by an Acarine. 7.
