Fig. 68.—Anteriorend, showing mouthparts of imcinariaduodenalis (dorsalview). Fig. 69.—Tail, with expanded bursa,of male imcinaria duodenalis. species of hook-worm recently recognized as a separate species. As im-ported cases, perhaps occasionally giving rise to small endemic foci, ithas been met in the cooler parts of the United States. Its habitat is in the duodenum, jejunum, and upper part of the ileumof man, where it is found in ntmibers varying from a few to considerablymore than a thousand. With its strong armature it attaches itself to theintestinal mucous membrane producing a small excavation, and thusfixed, sucks the nutrient juices, lymph and blood, from the mucosa. Throughthe agency of certain glands situated in the anterior end the worm pro-duces a substance inhibiting blood coagulation; and thus from the tinylesions produced by the worm, which are frequently forsaken for freshsituations, considerable bloody oozing takes place.
