Description
The testes of an adult Opisthorchis viverrini are lobed in comparison of dendritic testes of Clonorchis sinensis.
The eggs of Opisthorchis viverrini are 30 × 12 μm in size and they are slightly narrower and more regularly ovoid than in Clonorchis sinensis. But eggs of Opisthorchis viverrini are visually indisgushiable in Kato technique smears from other eggs of flukes from other fluke family Heterophyidae.
The metacercariae of Opisthorchis viverrini are brownish, elliptical with two nearly equal-sized suckers: the oral sucker and the ventral sucker. They are 0.19-0.25 × 0.15-0.22 mm in size.

Famous quotes containing the word description:
“The next Augustan age will dawn on the other side of the Atlantic. There will, perhaps, be a Thucydides at Boston, a Xenophon at New York, and, in time, a Virgil at Mexico, and a Newton at Peru. At last, some curious traveller from Lima will visit England and give a description of the ruins of St. Paul’s, like the editions of Balbec and Palmyra.”
—Horace Walpole (1717–1797)

That paragons description and wild fame;
One that excels the quirks of blazoning pens.”
