Abstract

As far as is known, no morphological study of the stomach trichomonads of swine has been made. The majority of investigators have assumed that the trichomonads found in the cecum and stomach are identical. It has been reported that the nasal form is different from that of the cecum and that the nasal form is simlar to Trichomonas foetus. The relationships among the trichomonads from these three locations have yet to be determined.
