Extract

Dujardin (1845) was the first to give a satisfactory account of the small Strongylid worms inhabiting the intestinal tract of field-mice and voles. His descriptions of the various species were careful and for the most part accurate, they were, unfortunately, not accompanied by figures, and incomplete in that the characters of the bursal rays of the males were not given, an omission which has led to considerable confusion, since the modern classification of the Trichostrongylidae is based largely on the structure of the male bursa.
