A schematic illustration of a Taenia spp. (Taenia species) egg showing a thick, radially striated embryophore surrounding a central oncosphere (hexacanth embryo) with numerous granules. In biological hierarchy, the larval oncosphere resides within the protective egg shell of a cestode (phylum Platyhelminthes). In parasitology and microbiology, this developmental stage enables transmission; when ingested by an intermediate host, the oncosphere hatches and penetrates intestinal tissue. The entity depicted is a reproductive structure (egg) located in the intestinal lumen and feces of definitive hosts.
