Intestinal contents from two muskoxen, Ovibos moschatus (Zimmermann), collected in March 1978 on Devon Island, N.W.T., both contained Marshallagia marshalli (Ransom 1906) and Nematodirus helvetianus May 1920. Intestinal contents from five muskoxen collected in August 1978 on Ellesmere Island, N.W. T., contained Moniezia expansa (Rudolphi 1810) (one of the five), Ostertagia trifurcata Ransom 1907 (one of five), M. marshalli (one of five) and N. helvetianus (two of five). Cysticerci of Taenia hydatigena Pallas 1766 were found in two of the five animals from Ellesmere Island.

Oxygen Equilibrium Curve

An extensive set of data relating to the binding of oxygen by haemocyanin from the squid Todarodes sagittatus has been collected under various experimental conditions. The results obtained show that, within the range of physiological pH, the concentration of protons affects mainly the high-affinity state of the molecule without significantly affecting the low-affinity state. As far as the effect of temperature is concerned, the data show a characteristic feature which is very similar to that previously described in the case of haemoglobins from Arctic mammals such as reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) and musk ox. (Ovibos moschatus). The shape of the oxygen equilibrium curve shows strong temperature-dependence, since the overall heat of the binding of oxygen to the low-affinity state of the molecule is strongly exothermic and that to the high-affinity state is very close to zero. The results provide an outline of the intramolecular compromise that, through the interplay of temperature and protons, optimizes the loading and unloading of oxygen under the various environmental conditions experienced by this species of squid.
