Rhinebothrium biorchidum n. sp., a tetraphyllidean cestode from a yellow-spotted stingray, Urolophus jamaicensis, in Jamaica.

Rhinebothrium biorchidum n. sp. (Tetraphyllidea: Phyllobothriidae) is described from the spiral valve of the yellow-spotted stingray, Urolophus jamaicensis, from Jamaica. It was most similar to R. spinicephalum Campbell 1970 but differed by having fewer proglottids (15 to 26 vs. 36 to 49), smaller peduncle (110 to 146 vs. 330 to 470) and pedicels (100 to 180 vs. 170 to 370), fewer transverse septa (6 to 8 vs. 16 to 17), fewer total loculi per bothridium (22 to 30 vs. 32 to 34) and larger ovarian lobes (148 to 310 vs. 88 to 176). A key to bitestate species of Rhinebothrium is included.

Factors that influence the level of activities in persons with lower extremity amputation.

This study explored the problems of prosthesis use in four dimensions of activity in 122 males and 9 females, aged 24 to 90 years, with lower extremity amputations. Comparisons were made between persons with above-the-knee amputation and those with below-the-knee amputation. A four-dimensional prosthetic problem inventory scale developed by the investigators was used. Results of this study provide a framework for identifying and addressing problematic areas in the use of prostheses.
