 description of R^. javanensis . 

 Cited: Neumann (1897: 416) 

 Nuttall (1914a: 256) figured 

 this specimen. 



NOTE: These specimens are of particular interest as they are pickings from 

 those collected by L. Fea on his journey in Burma. They were contained in 

 2 bottles labelled I "Tipi di Canestrini St. Supino" & II Aecki di Birmaniae 

 (Viaggio Fea)". See F. Supino "Nuovi Ixodes del la Birmania," Padova; also 

 G. Canestrini, Ann Museo Civico Genova XXXVII, p. 417-422. I gave the 

 Genova Museum many good specimens in exchange. The original labels give 

 scarcely more data than the names. I have added particulars from Neumann II 

 (1897) pp. 416-418 etc. The collection was sent to me by Prof. Gestro after 

 my visit to Genoa.
