A reference handbook of the medical sciences, embracing the entire range of scientific and practical medicine and allied science . n annular ridge about its the opinion of the author it cannot be the species,Davainea asiatica, he originally described from thesame region and has the aspect of a large species likeT. saginata or T. solium from which, however, it canreadily be distinguished on the basis of the data given. 770 \ PHiLippiNA, Garrison, 1907. Length of chain, 80 centimeters, composed of 800proglottides, breadth 1 centimeter in 1 to millimeter in diameter, suckers millimeter. Neck segmented. Sexual maturityreached at about the 470th proglottis. Ovarian lobesand vitelline gland greatly elongated compact, vas deferens looped. Lterine stemspiral anteriorly and showing a ^-shaped portion inposterior half of proglottis. Embryophore oval, 35to 41/! long by 26 to 35« broad. A single specimen was obtained from a prison inManila in 1905 and described by Garrison in further has been ascertained regarding it«life historv or Fig. 1329.—Ripe Proglottis of TtFtiia africana, X 5. C-^Iter vonLinstow.) T^xn BREMXERi, Stephens, 1907. Known only from a few proglottides passed by anative in northern Nigeria. Said to be common inthat region. Noteworthy for the extreme size of theproglottides which measure in maximum 32 X 9 milli-meters and commonly 29X10 millimeters. Theuterine branches number 22 to 24; the eggs measure34 to 45 by 30 to 42u and average 30 by 38/i. Thesegments suggest strongly those of Taenia confusaalthough in the extreme the segments of the latterspecies are somewhat longer and narrower. T^xi.\ .\, V. Linstow, 1900. Length about mUlimeter, or more; breadthincreasing posteriad, near end greatest, 12 to15 millimeters. Scolex unarmed with apical suckernotably small, millimeter wide by millimeterlong. Proglottides number about 600, always de-cidedly
