Summary

Description
English: This metacercaria stage is found in the broodsacs in the tentacles of the snail; if the broodsac is eaten by a bird it will develop further as a parasite in the bird's cloaca.

Translation of original caption:

Fig. 5. A fully formed metacercaria, ready for transmission, surrounded by the double integument; many granules are attached to the inner one. The collar of the head is clearly visible; of the internal organs, besides the suckers with the intestines, the gonads are clearly visible as well as the nervous system with the two asymmetrical longitudinal nerve trunks.
Deutsch: Fig. 5. Eine völlig ausgebildete und zur Übertragung reife Larve, von der doppelten Hülle umgeben; der inneren sind viele Körnchen angelagert. Am Kopfe tritt der Kopfkragen deutlich hervor; von den inneren Organen erkennt man ausser den Saugnäpfen mit dem Darme deutlich die Anlagen der Geschlechtsdrüsen, sowie das Nervensystem mit den beiden asymetrisch verlaufenden Längsnervenstämmen.
