believed that the name should be Paronia (i.e. Moniezia) 

 ti-iclioijlossi. Meanwhile Linstow, 1 in a short note on this 

 subject, pointed to the fragmentary and scolex-less con- 

 dition of his material and the imperfect knowledge of 

 cestode anatomy in 1888 as reasons for his incomplete 

 descriptions. He went on to say that lie did not regard 

 T. trichoglossi as a specific name but merely as a name to 

 indicate an undefined Taenia from Trichoalossns. Fuhr- 

 mann 2 in 1908 gave a very brief summary of the above 

 discussion, and accepted M. carvhioi, Diani., as the true 

 name. I have listed the parasite under Linstow's name, 

 as it seems to me that Braun's contention is right even in 

 the face of Linstow's remarks, and that the correct name 

 is Moniezia triclioglossi, Linstow. In his original account, 

 Linstow himself called it a new species, consequently his 

 giving it a binomial name and a description, though short 

 and incomplete, is sufficient ground for retaining his name 

 for the cestode, especially ;is his types wciv still available. 

 Had the specimens been lost, then the species might 

 reasonably have l.eeu disregarded as not being ideni . iiiaole 

 from the account. But the re-examination of the types 

 having led to the establishing of identity between it and 

 the later described M. carrinoi, the latter name must fall 

 into synonymy.
