VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This image depicts two anatomical illustrations of the liver flukes, a type of parasitic flatworm belonging to the class Trematoda. The top illustration shows an intact specimen with its leaf-like body structure and suckers visible, which are used for attachment to the host's tissues. Below it is another specimen that has been dissected to reveal internal structures such as the digestive tract and reproductive organs. These detailed drawings are likely intended for scientific or educational purposes, providing a clear view of the morphology of these parasites. The handwritten label at the bottom reads "Cobbolds Perforation of the Liver Fluke X 1/2", indicating that this drawing represents an enlargement (possibly by half) of Cobbold's work on liver fluke perforations, and may refer to Thomas Spencer Cobbold, a notable English zoologist who specialized in parasitology during the 19th century.
