A recent study of 55 experimentally infected hogs re¬ vealed the following distribution of larvae in the tissues: diaphragm, 100 percent; stomach, 18 percent; testes, 15 percent; liver, 11 percent; brain, lungs, wall of the small intestine, each 9 percent; pancreas and aorta, each 8 percent; 119 rats, 31 of 308 foxes, 1 of 40 opossums, 2 Dr. Kagan, chief of the Hehninthology Unit,
