Enterobium vermicularis - clue: lateral alae
Enterobius vermicularis
I agree with RSono : Enterobius vermicularis ( Lateral alae, testes and gut are clearly visible). It reminds me of similar case - Duodenum (https://parasitewonders.blogspot.com/2014/10/answer-to-case-322.html)
Of course I have to agree with Nandhu, all the clues are in the pictures. Beautiful case indeed.

<3 thank you muchly for this classically elegant Enterobius example...
Good section for Entrobius vermicularis
"Pin the worm in this picture" would be another clever clue.
Hello, could someone explain to me what part of the parasite this is? I don't understand the "lateral alae" part even though I've read about it. Is it just a cross section of the parasite, showing the intestinal tract? And what else is it showing?
