    Lacertilia. Liolepis hellii Gray, contained in its stomach examples of Oxyurus siamensis v. Lins. Aves. Gentropus sinensis Steph. contained specimens of Heterakis rimula v. Lins., and of H. circularis v. Lins., and of Cheilospirura siamensis v. Lins., the last-named probably from the eye. A new genus and species, named by von Linstow Lissonema rotundatum, was found in this species, probably in the alimentary canal. Turnix taigoor contained in its eye examples of Cheilospirura ophthalmica v. Lins. Mammalia. Bos huhalis was infested at the root of its tongue with speci- mens of a Sarcosporidian, regarded by von Linstow as new and named by him Balbiana siamensis. Sciurus caniceps Gray, had under its skin an example of a Filaria, provisionally named by von Linstow Filaria sciuri. Galeopithecus volans Linn, was infested in its large intestine with Oxyurus coronata v. Lins., and in its subcutaneous con- nective tissue with Filaria longicirrata v. Lins. Semnopithecus alhocinereus was subcutaneously infested by Filaria corynodes v. Lins. EXPLANATION OF PLATE XVI. Pig. 1. Side view of Mehinorhynchus hufonis, X 8, p. 150. 2.
