Addendum. 



Since the manuscript was sent to the press, a paper by 

 Gedoelst, entitled " Quelques nematodes parasites de FElephant 

 a.fricain,"* has come to hand. The author describes a new species, 

 Ascaridia rodhaini Gedoelst, 1922, from the African elephant. 

 He also records a single female, Amira jnleaicf', from the same host. 

 It is very probable that the latter is the female of Amira 

 sameera, sp. n., described above. The author redescribes Miir- 

 shidia recta von Linstow, which is renamed above M. Unstoioi, 

 sp. n. Unfortunately, however, Gedoelst's paper is devoid of 

 illustrations.
