intestinalis (Bloch, 1782) Lamarck, 1801 \_=Gordius intestinalis Bloch]. 

 cystidicola Lamarck, 1801 [_=Cystidicolafarionis Fischer, 1798 (typeof Ci/stidicola) 



renamed] . 



Lamarck (1816, Aug., 210) says: " Je crois etre le premier qui ait senti la neces- 

 site de separer des ascarides, le ver que Muller a nomme Ascaris bifida. 

 J'en ai form un genre particulier dans mes lecons, sous le nom de fissule. 

 Ce genre fut ensuite reconnu, mais diversement nomine par les auteurs. En 

 effet, quelque annees apres, M. Fischer 1'etablit sous la denomination de 

 Cystidicola, d'apres une nouvelle espece qu'il fit connaitre; enfin, le docteur 

 Rudolphi, reconnaissant aussi le meme genre, lui assigna le nom d' Ophios- 

 toma." 



We have been unable to find Fissula prior to Lamarck, 1801, and in this pub- 

 lication Lamarck does not mention Ascaris bifida, which he refers to in 1816, 

 211 , as synonym of Fissula phocte. In 1816, he does not mention F. intestinalis. 

 From these data it is not clear to us how A. bifida can be accepted as type of 



Fissula, 1801. 



Our view in taking farionis as type of Ophiostoma. thus making Cystidicola, 

 Fissula, and Ophioxtoma synonymous, is in harmony with the synonymy of 

 Blainville, 1824a, 518.
