Electron microscopical studies of the cyst of 1-month-old H. diminuta larvae revealed considerable thickening of the superficial syncytium of tegument and formation of a large number of cavities and canals. The cytoplasm of the tegument is filled with microtubules produced by cytons of parenchymal layer which are analogs of tonofibrils. These peculiarities, together with numerous processes of the external fibrous layer, are regarded as adaptative to the changes of the hydrostatic pressure of the hemocoel of the intermediate host. The superficial syncytium is covered with microvilli and keeps polycellular cytoplasmatic bonds with cytons, which ensures energetic and plastic requirements for the stabilization of the hypertrophied syncytium and its physiological regeneration. Accumulations of fibres identical with those of the connective tissue were found in the cytons of the tegument. The cyst parenchyma consists mostly of cells with widened canals of granular endoplasmic reticulum associated with the microfibrils and production of fibrous filaments. The internal fibrous layer is produced by typical fibroblasts. The tegument of the cercomer is thinner and is considered to be less differentiated.
