An anomalous tapeworm with abnormal segmentation was obtained from a 6-year-old boy in Japan. The tapeworm consisted of proglottids with slanted anterior and posterior margins of proglottids and 4-6 sets of reproductive organs arranged between the margins. The morphology of the tapeworm did not correspond to any of the described cestodes. However, molecular identification based on nuclear and mitochondrial genes clearly showed the tapeworm was Diphyllobothrium nihonkaiense.
在日本，从一名6岁男孩体内获取了一条具有异常节段的异常绦虫。该绦虫由节片组成，节片的前后边缘呈倾斜状，边缘之间排列着4 - 6套生殖器官。该绦虫的形态与已描述的任何绦虫均不相符。然而，基于核基因和线粒体基因的分子鉴定明确显示，这条绦虫是日本裂头绦虫。
