and arrangement of the genital pores are similar. Tcenia 

 hipapillosa possesses external features sufficient to justify its 

 inclusion along with Tcenia /estiva in the genus Moniezia. There 

 are in my possession a number of tapeworms agreeing externally 

 with Moniezia hipapillosa, taken from a wombat {Phascolomys 

 mitchelli Owen) in this State; and I hope that, before long, I 

 shall be able to make known the structure of these two species of 

 Moniezia. 



IS.Phalanger ursinus Temm 



Bertia edulis Zschokke(42)[42,43,44]. 

 Bertia sarasinoruyn Zschokke(42)[42,43,44]. 

 These cestodes were collected in the Celebes. 



14.Phalangista sv).( = Trichosnrus sp., or Phalanger sp.). 



Bertia rigida Janicki(20)[19,20] from an opossum in New 

 Guinea. 



14.Trichosurus vuLPECULA Kerr(syn. Phalangista vulpina 

 Meyer.). 



Tcenia lyhalangistce Krefft(24). 



Filaria dentifera v, Linstow(30). 



The former was very imperfectly described from a Queensland 

 or New South Wales host. The latter was collected in Queens- 

 land by Prof. Semon. 



15.PHASC0LARCTUS CINEREUS Goldf. 



Bertia obesa Zschokke(45)[42,43, 44,45]. — Described from material 

 collected in Queensland by Semon. This parasite occurs fairly 

 commonly in the " Native Bear " in New South Wales. 

 Cobbold{12) merely mentioned the occurrence in this host of a 

 tapeworm which he called Tcenia geophiloides, on account of its 

 general resemblance to a long millipede. The name is valueless 

 as no description was given, and in all probability Cobbold's 

 specimen belonged to the above species, so well described by 

 Prof. Zschokke. By a considerable stretch of imagination, 

 Bertia obesa might be likened to a much bleached millipede of 

 the genus Julus, on account of its plump rounded form.
