Enderleinellus kumadai Kaneko, Bull. Tokyo Medical and Dental Univ., No. 1, 

 p. 49, figs. 1, 1-8, and 2, 1-2, 1954. 



Kaneko described this species from the holotype male, allotype 

 female, and four male and seven female paratypes, collected from 

 Callosciurus erythraeus thaiwanensis, 0-shima, Tokyo, Japan. The 

 host squirrels are native to Formosa and had escaped from a zoo 

 during World War II to become established on 0-shima. 



New records: Three males, one female from Callosciurus sp., 

 NAKHON sawan: Bou Phot Phisai, Tha Ngiu, March 30, 1953, RE- 

 1740. Two females, same data, but RE-1741. One male, one 

 female, same data, but RE- 1743. One female from Callosciurus 

 jinlaysoni, chaiyaphum: Phukeio, Ban Kaeng, Ban Non Taolek, 

 January 16, 1952, RE-361. 



The specimens reported above agree quite well with Kaneko 's 

 original description and figures. E. kumadai is related to E. malay- 

 sianus Ferris, E. menetensis Ferris, and; E. larisci Ferris — all from 

 Asian squirrels; it may be separated from malaysianus in having 

 paratergal plates on segments 2-4 (2-5 in malaysianus) ; and it differs
