point. Endocyte with large irregularly arranged protoplasmic granules. 

 Cysts spherical, dehiscing by spore ducts. Spores doliform. 



Taken in Aisne, Indre-et-Loire, and Vienne, France. Hosts : 

 Nemohius sylvestris (F.) (Gryllus s.) ; Gryllus domesticus L. Habitat: 

 Intestine. 



In 1875 Schneider merely mentioned the character of the epimerite 

 of the undescribed species. In 1882 he described the cephalont only. 



This species may be identical with Gregarina ohlonga Dufour, from 

 the same host. It is impossible, however, to correlate the two species 

 for the reason that Dufour described only sporonts and Schneider only 

 cephalonts. 



Leidyana gryllorum (Clepsidrina g.) was erroneously included 

 with this species by Labbe. For discussion, see under L. gryllorum. 



GREGARINA PANCHLORAE Frenzel 



[Figure 187] 



1892 Gregarina pancUorae Frenzel 1892:290-300 



Gregarina : Sporonts biassociative, long and slender. Sporonts 

 180/A long, 35ju, wide. Protomerite of satellite cylindrical, constricted 

 slightly in anterior half. Deutomerite of primite fits into a deep de- 

 pression in anterior end. Deutomerite cylindrical. Nucleus spherical, 

 18 to 20/A in diameter, with one karyosome. 



Taken in Cordoba, Argentina. Host: Panchlora exoleta King. 

 Habitat : Intestine. 



Frenzel gave a meagre description and but one drawing of this 

 species, illustrating only the manner in which the protomerite of the 

 satellite fits into the deutomerite of the primite. This part of the asso- 

 ciation is intermediate between that of the same portion of G. serpentida 

 deMagalhaes, as shown in his two figures, the one of a young, the other 

 of a mature, association. (Figs. 185 and 186.) The lengths of the two 

 species are, however, widely at variance so the species are not identical.
