B. Subgenus LOA Stiles, 1905. 
1905: Loa Stiles in Stiles & Hassall, 1905, Dec., 150 (m. loa; in man, Africa). 
The species Filaria loa differs so from the other filarite of man, in 
the presence of bosses on- the skin and in the form of the caudal papilla? 
that it may well be taken as the type of a special siibg-enus. This 
group also will probably eventually prove to be of generic value, as 
Cobbold has alreadv suggested.
