merate^ (3), p. 479, the known species of marine CercaricR, and describes 
as new, C. hymenocerca^ pi. xiv. figs. 5-7 (from Calyptrcea sinensis), and 
C. fascicularis, pi. xiv. fig. 4 (from Nassa reticulata). According to 
the same author (8), the Cercaria of Distomum leptosomum occurs en- 
cysted in Scrohicularia tenuis, that of D. lrachysomum[,iii Anthura gra- 
cilis ; both species of flukes are found as adult in Tringa alpina, and 
may be found encysted and undeveloped in the gizzard of that bird. 
The rediscovery of a new Amphistomum {A. hawhesi, Cobb.) in the 
Indian elephant (intestine), of another in the ox {A. tuherculatum,'Pjohh.'), 
and of one or two species in the colon of horses in India (A. collinsi, 
stanleyi, C.) is announced. Veterinarian, xlviii. pp, 733-743, 817-821. 
Distomum campanulatum, sp. n., Ercolan^ (14) (liver of the dog) ; D. 
sinense, sp. n., Cobbold (6), in the liver (biliary ducts) of man (Chinese) 
in India. 
Amphibdella, g. n., Chatin. “ Corpus elongatum depressum, antice 
attenuatum ; caput corpori continuum ; os parvum et glandulm duae 
laterales ; tractus intestinalis bifurcatus ; aperturss genitalium antror-

ovaria duo ramosa lateralia ; bursa terminalis cum 4 uncis." A. torpe- 
dinis, sp. n, (1), pi. ii. figs. 3-14 (on the gills of Torpedo marmorata). 
The systematic position of Myzostomum being still unsettled, this 
may be the proper place to record the observation by R. v. WillemoSs- 
SuHM, on Myzostoma encysted in pairs, a larger and a smaller indivi- 
dual, in swellings on the arms of deep sea Antedons in the South Pacific 
(Z. wiss. Zool. XXV. p. XXX.), and on the Myzostoma of the Pentacrini 
(2 or 3 specimens of equal size, in each cyst of the arms) in the western 
Pacific Ocean ; also Myzostoma on Hyocrinus and Bathycrinus (op. cit. 
xxvi. p. Ixjdx.), and tropical Antedons.
