Lacektilia. 



Liolepis hellii Gray, contained in its stomach examples of 

 Oxyurus siamensis v. Lins. 



AVES. 



Centropus sinensis Steph. contained specimens of Heterakis 

 rimula v. Lins., and of H. circularis v. Lins., and of Cheilospirura 

 siamensis v. Lins., the last-named probably from the eye. A new 

 genus and species, named by von Linstow Lissonema rotundatum, 

 was found in this species, probably in the alimentary canal. 



Turnix taigoor contained in its eye examples of Cheilospirura 

 ophthalmica v. Lins. 



Mammalia. 



Bos huhalis was infested at the root of its tongue with speci- 

 mens of a Sarcosporidian, regarded by von Linstow as new and 

 named by him Balhiana siamensis. 



S'citirus caniceps Gray, had under its skin an example of a 

 Filaria, provisionally named by von Linstow Filaria sciuri. 



Galeopithecus volans Linn, was infested in its large intestine 

 with Oxyurus coronata v. Lins., and in its subcutaneous con- 

 nective tissue with Filaria longicirrata v. Lins. 



Semnopithecus albocinereus was subcutaneously infested by 

 Filaria corynodes v. Lins.
