204 SUMMARY OF CURRENT RESEARCHES RELATING TO 
with distribution, since the only other known species is Tr. tuamoiuensis 
from the South Sea Islands. The generic name will have to be changed, 
since Tricliorhynchus was previously given by Schneider to a Gregarine ; 
the new name Mycterothrix is proposed. 
Protozoa of Pontine Marshes.* — Dr. G. Lindner describes some of 
the forms he observed in water from the malarial marshes — numerous 
Flagellata, the ciliate Colpoda cucullus, and a few amoeboid forms. 
New Ccelomic Gregarine.f — Maurice Caullery and Felix Mesnil de- 
scribe an addition to the not very long list of coelomic Monocystidea. 
They call it Gonospora longissima ; it occurred in the general cavity of 
Dodecaceria concharum CErst., one of the Cirratulid Annelids. It is 
remarkable (for a Gregarine) in exhibiting a phase of asporulate or 
endogenous multiplication, comparable to that in Coccidia.
