| Abstract: | The amphids, cephalic papillae, phasmids, excretory complex, anal vesicle, rectal cells, G cell and the nerve ring are described in the microfilaria of Breinlia sergenti. The significance of these various structures in playing a nervous role in this organism is discussed, and a working hypothesis presented to explain the nervous co-ordination in this parasitic stage. |
