Figure 52: TEM of tegument covering scolex of Cysticercus pisiformis. Five to six-week-old tegument covering rostellum showing distal cytoplasm (DC) covered with dense apical plasma membrane (AP) carrying microtriches (M). Numerous tegument cells (TC) distributed underneath the muscular layer formed of circular (CM) and longitudinal (LM) muscle bundles.
