18 Records of the Indian Museum. Pp Won: Sxshie 
F. E. Beddard, F.R.S., P.Z.S., September 1911, London). Our 
specimens agree with T. gambianum in all the anatomical details 
which I have been able to elucidate, particularly with reference to 
the unilateral genital pores, the probable presence of numerous 
para-uterine organs, the absence of armature on the head and the 
absence of a ‘‘neck.’’ At the same time, judging from Beddard’s 
figures, I am of opinion that our specimens are not T. gambianum. 
Beddard’s specimens were from the Gambian Pouched Rat 
(Cricelomys gambianus). Our specimens are recorded as being 
obtained from Rhinocerus sondaicus, but no locality or date is 
given, nor is the name of the collector known. The absence of 
armature on the head, the absence of a neck, together with uni- 
lateral genital pores and the presence of para-uterine organs ieads 
me to place our specimens in the genus Thysanosoma. A determi- 
nation of the species will not be possible until more material is 
available. 
In view of the preceding facts, the details given on page 286 
of my report (vide ante) under ‘‘ Thysanosoma actiniotdes, Diesing, 
1835’ should read as follows :— 
Thysanosoma sp. 
ZEV +582 Rhinoceros sondaicus. 2
