TWO NEW TREMATODES 219 



Sqiialonchocotyle antarctica Hughes, 1928, was described from Mus- 

 telus antarcticus at Port Philip Bay, Australia. Its range can be extended 

 to New Zealand, as I have collected two specimens from the same host 

 there. It is very different from S. callorhynchi in its conspicuous preoral 

 flange, lateral vaginal pores, conspicuous intestinal ceca, and shorter fila- 

 ments on the egg. The following details can be added to Hughes' descrip- 

 tion : The inner surface of the oral cavity is papillate ; the haptoral suckers 

 have conspicuous ridges but either lack papillae or have only a few, faint 

 and widely scattered. Haptoral hooks have spines along the inner edge for 

 about half their length. Appendix hooks are 52 to 54 /x, long. A seminal 

 receptacle is present; eggs are about 166 to 194 fx long, egg filaments to 

 about the same length as the egg. 



SUMMARY 



Two new species of Monogenea are described from the elephant fish, 

 Callorhynchus capensis, from South Africa. These are Callorhynchicola 

 multitesticulatus (family Chimaericolidae) and Squalonchocotyle cal- 

 lorhynchi (family Hexabothriidae). 



Both species are also reported from Callorhynchus milii in New 

 Zealand. 



S. antarctica Hughes, 1928, formerly known from Mustelus antarc- 

 ticus in Australia, is reported from that same host in New Zealand.
