Abstract
    During investigations of the helminth parasites of the British limpets Patella vulgata, P. intermedia and P. depressa in relation to a possible bearing of parasitism on mortality and sex proportions, three larval trematodes, Cercaria Patellae Lebour, 1911; an unidentified Xiphidiocercaria, Cercaria B; an unidentified Cercaria C; and one larval cestode were found. Of these, C. patellae was the commonest.
