Fig. 1 Gravid proglottids and an egg of Diphyllobothrium nihonkaiense. (A) Whole mounted specimens of a proglottid showing the uterus and cirrus sac (× 25), (B) A SEM photo of the eggshell showing shallow pits and opercular structure (× 3,000), (C, D) Longitudinal sections of a mature proglottid showing the cirrus sac (CS), seminal vesicle (SV), and uterus (U) (C: H-E stain, D: trichrome stain).
Fig. 2 A phylogenetic tree of diphyllobothriid tapeworms based on partial cox1 sequences inferred from neighbor-joining (NJ) analysis. Numbers on branches indicate the bootstrap supporting values based on the 3,000 replicates. There were 335 bps corresponding to positions 735-1107 of the cox1 gene.
