6 A CENSUS OF AUSTRALIAN MALLOPHA(iA 



Xenorhynchus asiaticus, Lath. 

 Philopterus horridus, Giebel. 



Syn. Docophorus horridus, Giebel, 1876, ]). 249 ; 

 Piaget, 1880, p. 97. 



Host quoted as Ciconia australis. 



KOTOPHOYX NOV.=E-HOLLANDI.^, Lath. 



Lipeuriis nnguiculatus, Piaget. 



Piaget, 1888, xx.xi., p. 247, PI. 10, fig. 2. 

 Host quoted as Herodias novcehoUandice. 



Chenopsis atrata, Lath. 



Lipeurus anatis megaceros, Johnston & Harrison. 1912. 



Syn. Lipevrus squaUdus, var, antennatus, Piaget, 

 1880, p. 346. L. squaUdus, Nitzsch, is a synonym 

 of L. anatis, Fabricius. The name antennatus is pre- 

 occupied by L. antennatus, Giebel (1874, p. 213). 

 We therefore propose to substitute the sub-specific 

 name megaceros as above. Host quoted as Cygnus 

 atratus, Rotterdam Zoo.
