title: A contribution to the etiology of racemose cysticercosis.
abstract: An aberrant case of proliferating coenurosis caused by Taenia serialis in immunosuppressed mice is described. The coenuri closely resembled examples of racemose cysticerci described in the literature and the present results are discussed with reference to human cases of asexually proliferating larval cestode infections.
