Abstract
1.
1. The increase in body weight of Hymenolepsis diminuta in diluted Hank's saline is entirely due to the intake of water. There is some salt loss, but this is of negligible weight.
2.
2. Salt loss and water intake are proportional to the dilution of the medium.
3.
3. It is concluded that H. dimimuta is an osmoconformer and that the protonephridial canals have no osmoregulatory function.
