Abstract
Some ultrastructural observations on the microfilaria of Breinlia sergenti-the pharyngeal thread and Innenkorper.International Journal for Parasitology 4: 375-382. The fine structure of the pharyngeal thread and the Innenkorper (inner body) of the microfilaria of Breinlia sergenti is described. The pharyngeal thread is seen as an elongated cuticular structure with associated nervous elements while the Innenkorper is sac-like in appearance. A possible function related to the transfer and storage of nutrient material is assigned to these structures.
