55. Psoplwdes crepitans, Lath. (M. [526, H. 223). The 

 coach whip bird. 



Acanthocephala : — Echinorhynchns sp. 

 I have taken specimens from birds collected by Dr. J. B. 

 Cleland (Sydney).

 530, H. 227.) The white-browed babbler. 



Protozoa -—Halteridinm sp. (Hallett's Cove, Adelaide, S. 

 Australia.) 

 This parasite has been detected by Dr. Cleland and myself 

 in the red blood corpuscles of this bird. It possesses large 

 pigment granules. 



Acanthocephala -.—Echinorhynchns sp. 

 Specimens were collected by Dr. Cleland at Hallett's 

 Cove, near Adelaide, South Australia. They were encysted 

 in the subcutaneous tissues of the neck and throughout the 

 body, also in the fascial layer between the thoracic muscles, 

 sometimes deeply embedded, apparently also occasionally 

 in the muscle-substance itself surrounded by a small area 

 of disintegration. This parasite occurs in similar situations 

 in Pomatorhinus vubcculiis and Climm-irris wrllsi in West 

 Australia, and in Aphelocephala leucopsis in S. Australia. 

 58. Pomatorhinus ruheeulits, Gould (syn. Poniatostomtts 



rubeculus, Gid.) (M. 532, H. 229). The red-breasted
