Scanning electron micrographs of A. galli treated with I. cylindrica extract. a The lips are shrunk and contracted (upper arrow) and the surrounding cuticle is also shrivelled (lower arrow). × 350. Scale bar = 50 μm. b Extensive shrinkage of the main body with formation of warts on the cuticle (arrows). × 550. Scale bar = 20 μm. c Shrinkage extends to the tail (top arrow), phasmids are distorted (middle arrow) and there is scar formation in the precloacal sucker (bottom arrow). × 110. Scale bar = 100 μm
