sites from ludia,” 1. c. pp. 788-790 ;* R. S. Hart, “ Observations on 
parasites from the horse and from other animals,” I, c. pp. 786-788, and 
The Nematoid parasites found between the coats of the stomach of the 
horse,” 1. c. pp. 6GG-G70. 
The Entozoa found in various arctic mammals and birds at Spitzbergen 
and Nova Zembla are enumerated by Heuglin (Reisen, iii. pp. 254-256) ; 
in many instances however the specific name is left undecided. 
A note on the occurrence in Ireland of Dasydytes antenniger and Chm- 
tonotus gracilis, Gosse, Q. J. Micr. Sci. xiv. p. 106, may perhaps be most 
conveniently cited here, the systematic position of these animals being 
still undetermined. 
VIII. ACANTHOCEPHALA. 
Echinorhynclius moniliformis, from Sciurus vulpinus, briefly described 
by H. C.* Chapman ; P. Ac. Philad. 1874, p. 76. A paper (in Russian) 
read by Salensky at the meeting of the Russian Association of Na- 
turalists at Kiew, 1873, on the structure of E. angustatus, has not been 
seen by the Recorder. An abstract of Linstow’s paper [Zool. Rec. ix. 
.p. 435), Z. ges. Nat. xliii. pp. 470 & 471.

* As relating to Helminthology generally, two papers by J. S. Cobbold may 
bo here additionally cited: — “ Remarks on the classification of animal parasites " 
(?. c. pp. 7-9), “ Parasites, and tho part they play in the economy of nature” (pp. 
168-179). Cobbold’s “Manual” is translated by T. Tommassi, “ Parasiti in- 
terni dogli Animali Domestici, Manualle dcgli Entozoi del bove, della pecora, del 
cane, del cavallo, del majale, e del gatto.” Also a dissertation by Muller, 
“ Statistik der menschlichon Entozoon ” (Erlangen : 1874). As tho statistics and 
occurrence of the Entozoa of man and of the domestic animals, the sufferings or 
diseases produced through them, &c., cannot be regarded as foreign to their 
natural history in a broader sense of the word, it is almost impossible to draw a 
definite line between those helminthological papers, which fall entirely within 
the limits of zoology, and those which more properly belong to medical science. 
The Recorder has been obliged to give up the idea of enumerating all the hel- 
mintho-pathological papers dispersed in various medical journals, but may spe- 
cially indicate tho following; — H. Meisner, “ Boitrago zur Hclminthologio und 
Parasitenlehre,” A. Blasenwiirmer (in Schmidt’s “ Jahrbiicher der in-und-aus liin- 
disohen gesammten Medicin, clxiv. 1874, pp. 188-207), and Bollinger & Pons- 
EiCK, “Animal Parasites in Animals and Men” (in Virchow and Hirsch's 
Jahresbericht fiber die Leistungen und Fortschritte in der gesammten Medicin, 
viii. 1873, pp. 606-611, 638-642, and ix. 1874, pp. 352-364, 714-719).
