dc.description.abstract	Metacercarial cysts of Bucephalus haimeanus naturally infect Pomatoschistus microps collected from the Tamar Estuary, Devon. Cysts occur throughout the liver, greater concentrations being found around the gall bladder, blood vessels and periphery of the liver. The cyst wall is composed of three layers, an inner granular, middle vacuolated and outer nucleated layer. The inner layer consists of three zones, an inner zone of irregularly-compacted, granular material, a middle densely-compacted zone and an outer moderately-compacted zone. Only small amounts of collagen and very few leucocytes are associated with the cysts.
