Echinostome cercaria (larval trematode) from a snail. Pictures were shot using a Nikon AlphaPhot teaching compound microscope with a trinocular head and a mounted camera. Ill shoot some scales and post them separately as a short video. Lowest mags were with a 4X objectives, next mags with a 10X objective, and highest with a 40X objective. The camera tube has no separate eyepiece lens. Thanks for the suggestions!

  • Those lines are excretory canals, probably filled with urine equivalent. Thanks for the kind words!

  • Great video! What are the two lines at the sides of the worm?
