title: [Antigenic affinity of species of the genus Diphyllobothrium (Cestoidea, Diphyllobothriidae) distributed in the territory of Karelia].
abstract: Experiments on ringprecipitation reactions with homologous and heterologous antigenes of four species of diphyllobothriids have shown that D. dendriticum and D. ditremum are in a more close antigenic affinity. In relation to the above two species D. vogeli is approximately at the same level. D. latum displayed no antigenic affinity with the above species that, apparently, is connected with its parasitism only in mammals. Schemes of immunization of rabbits for obtaining antisera are given.
