The scolex and remaining strobila survived but were recovered from a more posterior region of the intestine where small worms are attached during development. The movement to the new region was usually not complete in 24 h, but was complete by 72 h, and probably by 48 h. The operation, involving laparotomy and an incision in the duodenal wall which avoided severing the strobila, had no effect on the position of the worm but did depress the growth of the worm during the ensuing 24 h. It is suggested that (1) the preferred site for<jats:italic>H. diminuta<\/jats:italic>is 30\u201350 % down the small intestine, (2) the worm monitors information about its position from all over its strobila and (3) as the worm grows, its position is determined by balancing the input of adverse information from its tail and head ends. The slowness with which surgically shortened worms return to the preferred site may be due either to delay in the worm \u2018realising\u2019 it has no tail, or to the location stimuli in the intestine being disturbed for 24 h by the operation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0031182000053798","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,6,5]],"date-time":"2009-06-05T16:50:54Z","timestamp":1244220654000},"page":"401-409","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["<i>Hymenolepis diminuta<\/i>: the role of the tail in determining the position of the worm in the intestine of the rat"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"79","author":[{"given":"C.
