 Dr. Johnson briefly describes and figures an organism, "a rare 

 worm," from the renal tract of a boy (Austr Med. Gaz., xxi., 

 1902, p. 524) — S. Australia. The description does not allow of 

 the parasite being assigned to any particular animal group. I 

 have disregarded all references to the occurences of unnamed 

 " worms," unless the description is such as to enable one to 

 identify the organism.
