| Title | Rees, Florence Gwendolen: certificate of election to the Royal Society |
| Citation | Distinguished for her work on Helminthology. She has made important contributions to the life-cycles, histology, biology and systematics of cestode and trematode worms. Her work upon the systematics of these parasitic helminths is based upon a detailed study of the comparative morphology of different stages of the life-cycles and upon infection experiments. In particular, her work upon the comparative functional morphology of cestodes is of an excellence which is quite definitive, and her descriptions of the musculature and inervation of the holdfast organs of these parasitic works has thrown new light upon the structural relationship of the parasites to their hosts. |
