Shelled acanthors (= eggs) of two isolates of Moniliformis moniliformis (Acanthocephala) were tested for their capacity to respond to a hatching stimulus in vitro and for their retention of infectivity to a natural intermediate host (Periplaneta americana). The shelled acanthors were stored for more than 120 weeks (Australian isolate) and for 104 weeks (Texan isolate) together with rat faeces in an incubator maintained at 22.2 +/- 0.1 degrees C. In both cases, infectivity to P. americana was shown to have been retained. In vitro tests of the hatching response were carried out on many occasions during this period of faecal storage. Shelled acanthors continued to respond and no differences were detected either between isolates or within an isolate through time.
