Hab. Singapore ; right respiratory tree of Holothuria scabra. A 

 male, and a female with ova. 



The specimens which Dr. Burger has described came from the 

 cloaca of Hoi. fusco-cinerea ; whereas the specimens we obtained 

 from that Holothurian are, 1 find, referable to P. ortmanni. The 

 host, from which came Dr. Burger's example of the latter species, 

 was, I suppose, not known, as he makes no reference to it. In 

 both these species, the animal was found high up the respiratory 

 tree, forming an enormous gall ; whether it would be able to 

 extricate itself from this, and move, at will, up or down the 

 respiratory tree, I do not know, but it has the appearance of beino- 

 a fixture, nolens volens.
