518 ENTOZOA OF MONOTREMATA, ETC., I., 



7.MACR0PUS BROWNi Ramsay. 

 Cloacina dahli v. Linstow(28); a nematode from the alimentary 

 canal (Bismarck Archipelago). 



S.Macropus ualabatus Less. & Garn. 



Zoniolaimus seiifera Cobb(9); a nematode inhabiting the 

 stomach of the brush wallaby (New South Wales). Cobb(9) also 

 mentioned Z. hrevicaudatus Cobb, but did not state the name of 

 the host. Perhaps it was also obtained from a macropod. 



9.Macropus ruficollis var. bennettii Waterh. 



Filaria sp. — Eisig(18) mentioned the occurrence of a Filaria in 

 the pericardium of Macropus bennettii Waterh., but no locality 

 was stated. This host is now regarded as a variety of M. rufi- 

 collis Desm.; and, since it only occurs in Tasmania, we may safely 

 set down that island as the locality of the specimen. 



IO.Macropus sp. 



I am including under this heading the names of entozoa 

 recorded from hosts designated "kangaroo," "wallaby," Macropus 

 sp., and Halmaturus sp. 



Cittotmnia zschokkei J anickii^O, 19) (^Macropus; New Guinea). 



Bothriocephalus (?) margmatus Krefft(24)(wallaby; Queensland). 



TcBriia fimhriata Krefft(24)^northern wallaby?). 



TcB7iia mastersii lLvQ^t{^^){Halmaturus; Queensland). 



Distomum hepxiticum Linn. (wallaby, kangaroo; loc.?). 



Filaria spelcea Leidy(25)(vvallaby; Australia). 



Filaria websteri Cobbold(12)(kangaroo; Queensland ?). 



Filaria sp. Crisp(13)(kangaroo; loc. ?). 



The hosts of two of Krefft's species(24)j viz., Bothriocephalus{1) 

 marginatus and Tcenia fimbriata are not known for certainty, 

 though both probably came from Queensland wallabies. The 

 specific name fimbriata was already preoccupied in the genus 

 Tcenia h j DiQuing (T. fimbriata Dies., = Thysanosotna fimbriata 

 Dies.), and consequently cannot stand for Krefft's species. Since
