 This imperfectly known tapeworm was described as T. 

 chlamijderae, this name being evidently derived from the 

 generic nam ■ of the host il'hiauuideva maculata in Krefft). 

 Being a "lapsus calami" it may be altered to T. chlamy- 

 doderae as Linstow 1 and Fuhrmann 2 have already done.

 This parasite was imperfectly described by Linstow as 

 Taenia clavulus. Bl an chard 1 in 1891 thought that this 

 species was probably a Davainea. Fuhrmann 4 in 1902 gave 

 a full account of a cestode from certain birds of paradise, 

 which he called Biuterina paradisea, making it the type 

 of his new genus Biuterina, but in 1908 he 5 stated that his 

 species was synonymous with Taenia clavulus, Linst., after 

 having examined the original specimens collected by the 

 Challenger Expedition. This parasite has been taken from 

 several species of birds of paradise. Miss Sweet 1 misquotes 

 Fuhrmann as her authority for stating that Aporina alba, 

 Fuhrm. occurs in Ptilon-his (sic) alberti, whereas Fuhr-
