forma zelleri is not present. It apparently belongs with C. dimidiata 

 in the same subgenus, as does also C. luzonensis. As good a treat- 

 ment as I can suggest is to class it as a subspecies of C. luzonensis. 



CEPEDEA CILIATA, new species 



Figure 76 



Type: U.S.N.M. No. 22641. 



Host: Hyla fuscovaria Lutz, from the State of Minas Geraes, 

 Brazil; two specimens, one iminfected. 



The infected specimen of this frog bore myriads of Cepedeas inter- 

 mediate in shape between the longa type and the dimidiata type. 

 They are considerably flattened. The most marked character is a 

 very dense cOiation, the spaces between the rows of cilia in the an- 

 terior portion of the body being only l/x. 



Body measurements, in microns: 30 by 44, 154 by 34, 140 by 36.
