Abstract
: Morphological studies on larval and adult Echinococcus granutosus of buffalo, cattle, sheep, goats and camel origin revealed non-significant difference as regards the total number of hooks as well as shape and arrangement of the hooks. The mean total length of large and small hooks did not vary significantly in protoscoleces from different animal origin but mean total length of large and small hooks of adult worm differed significantly. No significant differences were observed in segmentation of adult worms, number and distribution of testes, shape of cirrus sac, position of genital pore and in histological examination hydatid cysts.
