Ultrastructural analysis revealed that the spermatozoon of Discocotyle sagittata (Leuckart, 1842) is composed of two parallel axonemes, mitochondrion, nucleus and cortical microtubules. The nucleus, which occupies a central/distal position and has an unusual crescent-shaped profile, is slightly shorter than the mitochondrial rod. The two axonemes, which are of unequal length, and the cortical microtubules (up to 68 forming a continuous ring in the principal region) extend almost the entire length of the spermatozoon. A fold of the plasma membrane creates a unilateral flange or undulating membrane. Epifluorescence microscopy indicated that spermatogenesis gives rise to clusters of 64 spermatids connected to a common cytophore. Spermiogenesis and the structure of the filiform sperm of D. sagittata conform to the typical polyopisthocotylean pattern.
