E. polymorphus is a parasite of the liver, but it may occur in other organs. THE THORN-HEADED WORM OR ACANTHOCEPHALE. This parasite requires a secondary host. In this case a particular species of the May-beetle larva or white grub that is commonly found about manure piles and in clover pastures is the host. The hog eats a white grub that is host for the larval form.
