SUMMARY. Spirobutschliella clignyi, which occurs in the intestine of Pomatoceros triqueter, was found in numbers ranging from 1 to 98 in about 45% of the host specimens examined at Drøbak. Comparative incidence of infection in closely neighboring host specimens suggests that migration of normal sized ciliates is not the main route of infection. The distribution of dwarf ciliates indicates the possibility of their being involved in transmission. The general morphology and the absence of skeletal structures would seem to permit inclusion of the species in the family Anoplophryidae.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
