labor, and in the hope of savinga duplication of some of this work 

 on the part of our colleagues, and also in order to direct attention 

 to gênera which hâve been overlooked, and thus to prevent further 

 confusion in the family, we hâve decided to publish the material 

 coUected. 



To avoid misinterpretation, it is hère definitely stated that in 

 this paper we in no wise intend to propose a new classification of 

 the family. The article is rather to be interpreted as a conserva- 

 tive inventory of stock on hand. 



Alphabetical list of Ibe family, subfamily, generic and subgeneric 

 names (exclusive of larval stages) of Ihe Trematode family Fasciolidae. 



The foUowing alphabetical list includes, we believe, ail of the 

 family, subfamily, generic and subgeneric names which at présent 

 come into considération in connection with this family. In each 

 case we give the type désigna ted by other authors, or designate 

 the type ourselves if this bas not yet been donc. We also reduce to 

 synonymy those cases in which the synonymy appears to be estab- 

 lished, and we propose the new generic term Rhopalias for the 

 liomonym Rhopalophorus. At the end of the list will be found an 

 analytical key to the gênera and subgenera thus far proposed. AU 

 Inbliographic références in synonymie tables bave been verified 

 except those preceded by dates which are inclosed in parenthèses. 



Agamodistomum Stossich, 1892. — No type species. 



1892, Agamodisiomum Stossich, Programma délia ci vica Scuola 

 Reale superiore, p. 4 of reprinl. 



1892, DisîomM^wm Brandes, Centralbl. f. Bakteriol. und Parasi- 

 tenk., XII, n" 15, (oct. 7), p. 510. 



This is an artificial collective genus including agamic Flukes, and 

 as such bas no type species. Stossich's generic name is hère adopted 

 (altho' its exact date of publication is not known to us) in préfér- 

 ence to the one proposed by Brandes, in order not to complicate 

 the nomenclature, since a number of spécifie names bave already 

 been published in combination with Agamodistomum but none hâve 

 as yet been published with Distomulum. We agrée with Stossich and 

 Brandes as to the advisability of using a separate Lerm for agamic 

 forms which cannot be more exactly placedgenerically.
