Rostellar hook morphology of<i>Echinococcus granulosus</i>(Batsch, 1786) from natural and experimental Australian hosts, and its implications for strain recognition
1 Oct 1990
Abstract excerpt
An analysis of the rostellar hooks of Australian isolates of Echinococcus granulosus revealed that there was less variation in larval (metacestode) than adult characters and that metacestode characters could be measured directly from adult worms. A factor analysis indicated that two factors, one representing a contrast between number of hooks and their length, and the other representing blade lengths, were...
