Abstract:
Through transmission electron microscope,the ultrastructure of the tegument of Orien-tobilharzia turkestanica var. tuberculata cercariae was observed. From exterior to interior, the tegument can be divided into five parts,i. e. ,glycocalyx,external plasma membrane,ma-trix, basal plasma membrane and basement layer. The cell boundery is absent in the matrix, there is no subcellular structure but is filled with abundant dense particles. The thickness of this layer varies markedly so the surface of the cercarial body can be either convex or con-cave. There are two types of dense bodies (cercarial-type inclusion bodies) in this layer. Its formation,function and the relation with the glycocalyx are discussed.
