A Contribution to the Life History of Bucephalus longicornutus (Manter, 1954)
The Miracidium
The Miracidium
The eggs of adult specimens of Bucephalus longicornutus, obtained and set up as described elsewhere (p. 5), were examined on 20 consecutive days in order to detect miracidia. None was found and no eggs showed signs of embryonation. The eggs may not have been viable but this point needs further investigation.
