The present paper is the fifth instalment of the Report on the Molteno Institute collection, of which Parts I–III (Ascaeidae, Heterakidae, Oxyuridae, Camallanidae, etc.) and Part IV (Trichostrongylidae and Strongylidae) were published in this Journal by Dr H. A. Baylis (1923) and myself (1926). This collection was sent to Cambridge by Dr E. Hindle and consisted chiefly of unnamed material which had accumulated in the Parasitological Laboratory of the Egyptian Government School of Medicine in Cairo. Since commencing the work on the Filarioidea contained in this material, a further series of worms belonging to this order was placed at my disposal by the Cairo Medical School and the results of my study of this collection have been incorporated with those of the Molteno Institute specimens.

When Prof. E. Hindle took over the direction of the Biological Laboratory of the Egyptian Government School of Medicine, Cairo, he found there a large collection of parasitic worms, most of which had been accumulated by Prof. Looss while in charge of the Laboratory for a number of years prior to the Great War. As a large proportion of this material was unnamed, and as the named portion of it contained many specimens possibly of considerable value as original types or co-types, which had been in a neglected condition for some time, it was thought advisable to send duplicates of the collection to England, in order that part of it might be kept there in safer custody. It was also felt to be desirable that arrangements should be made for the examination and determination of the contents of the unnamed part of the collection.

The present paper is the first of a series describing a collection of cestodes from the Biological Laboratory of the Egyptian Government School of Medicine, Cairo, the nematodes having previously been described in this Journal by Baylis (1923 a, 1923 b, 1923 c) and Boulenger (1926). The identification of this portion of the collection has presented great difficulties, the specimens, from long immersion in alcohol mixed with fragments of cork, having become so pigmented as to be virtually black and almost unstainable: but for a formula (soak for 3 to 5 days in pure beechwood creosote, then transfer for the same time to 5 per cent. hydrochloric acid in 70 per cent, alcohol) supplied by Dr H. A. Baylis—to whom the author tenders his most sincere thanks—the elucidation of their anatomy would have been impossible.

When the transmission electron microscope was commercially introduced a few years ago, it was heralded as one of the most significant aids to medical research of the century. It continues to occupy that niche; however, the scanning electron microscope is gaining rapidly in relative importance as it fills the gap between conventional optical microscopy and transmission electron microscopy.IBM Boulder is conducting three major programs in cooperation with the Colorado School of Medicine. These are the study of the mechanism of failure of the prosthetic heart valve, the study of the ultrastructure of lung tissue, and the definition of the function of the cilia of the ventricular ependyma of the brain.
