Abstract
DURING work on the embryonic development of the cestode Diorchis ransomi Schultz, 1940, considerable attention was paid to the final phase called the pre-oncosphere. This phase is relatively little known so far. The present communication deals with only one feature of the pre-oncosphere, namely, the reduction in number of embryonic cells. A more detailed account of the work will be published in Acta Parasitologica Polonica.
