A stylized parasitology illustration of the scolex (head) of Taenia solium (T. solium), the pork tapeworm. The anterior organ of this cestode shows four circular suckers and an armed rostellum bearing hooklets for attachment. In biological hierarchy, the scolex is an organ within the helminth body plan (phylum Platyhelminthes). Functionally, it anchors the parasite to the small intestinal mucosa of the definitive host and enables persistent residence and nutrient acquisition.
