E. Blancliard in 1891 admitted the following species to tliis genus: 



A.perfoUata^ (Goeze, 1782). 

 A. mamillana (Mehlis, 1831). 

 A. pUcata (Zeder, 1800). 

 A. transversaria (Krabbf, 1879). 

 A. wimerosa (Mouiez, 1880). 

 A. glohiceps" (Diesing, 1P56). 



A. hlanchardi, Mouiez, 1891. 



A. zehrw (Eudolphi, 1810). 



A. hjjracls (Rudolplii, 1810). 



A. gUjaniea (Peters, 1856). 



T<rnia rlwpalocephala , Eiehiu, 1881. 



T. rliopaliocepliala, Eiohiii, 1881. 



Two of these S]iecies, Twnia rhopalocephala and T. rhopaUocephula, 

 I refer witli Railliet to the genus Andn/a (vide, p. 154). Of the 

 other species, A. wimerosa is the only one which occurs in rabbits. 

 This form is very closely allied to A. mamillana of the horse and 

 A. transrersaria of the marmot, Avhich are here introduced for com- 

 parison. Several of the remaining forms require further study before 

 their generic position can be looked upon as fully established. Setti 

 (1893) refers Arht/nchotwnia critica Pagenstecher, 1S77, and Twnia 

 ragaszii Setti, 1891, from Hyrax to this genus.

Moniez, in 1880, described as T. wimerosa. a cestode which he found 

 in Lepus cnnicnlus at Wimereux. His description reads as follows : 



[p. 241.] Le Ta'tiia Wimerosa appartient an type du Taenia, ex2)ai>sa. Observe a I'ceil 

 nu on sous de faibles grossisseuieuts, cette espece qui atteiut a peine uu centimetre de 

 loug sur nue Lirgeur da nn millimetre et demi, se presente avec un corps epais, form^ 

 d'nne dizaino d'auneanx senlemeut. La tete est grosse, les ventouses ^cartees, il 

 n'y a iii bulbe ui crochets, le con est nul. Les auneaus s'accuseut d'abord par dos 

 plis accentues; lenr robord inferienr tres saillant est arroudi et orue d'nne s 'rie de 

 oils elegamment disposes; leur aspect rappelle celui des cils des veutonses dont j'ai 

 parle ailleurs a propos de la Lignle. 



L'appareil genital n'est pas double dans cette espece comme cbez beaucoup 

 d'Inermes et, par une autre particnlarite, tons les anneanx le portent du meme cote.

' The tapeworms of the horse should be subjected to an anatomical revision, and at 

 the same time their specific names should be correctly established. I refrain from 

 attempting to straighten out these names at jiresent, as this can be done satis- 

 factorily only Avhen one has a good line of specimens before him. The tapeworms 

 of horses are unfortunately very poorly represented in the Bureau of Animal Indus- 

 try collection. 



"Liihe, 189.5 B, pp. 202-205, has recently reexamined Diesiug's type material of this 

 species, and has shown it to bo an un(iuestionable AnoplocephaJa. 



^The citations immediately following the specific names include only those articles 

 which have a direct bearing on the synonymy s. st. ; other references are cited in the 

 text by date of publication. (See Bibliography, p. 222.)
