ON A NEW CESTODE FROM THE POUCHED RAT, 
CRICETOMYS GAMBIANUM. 
By F. J. MEGGITT, M.Sc, Ph.D. 
A Correction. 
It is regretted that, in acknowledging the receipt of specimens of the species described 
under this title in Parasitology, xiii, p. 194, they were erroneously stated to have been received 
from Professor Nuttall. The specimens in question were collected by Mr W. Mansfield-Aders, 
Government Biologist, Zanzibar, and sent for identification through Dr C. L. Boulenger. 
The confusion arose through the circumstance that we have received specimens repeatedly 
from Professor Nuttall and that the latter has also received specimens from Mr Mansfield- 
Aders. I have much pleasure in taking this opportunity of rectifying the mistake and 
expressing my thanks to Mr W. Mansfield-Aders. 
iv. spaimger (loyoj must nave been based m part on iemales ot another species 
which he names N. dromedarii. N. spathiger is also shown to occur in other 
ruminants ( e.g. sheep, cattle, etc.) having been confused with the type species 
N.filicollis (Rud.). 
It was therefore to be expected that the worms from the camel in the 
Punjab would be referable to one of these three forms, the specimens before 
me are, however, shown in this paper to belong to a fourth species, N. mauri- 
tanicus Maupas and Seurat (1912) hitherto known from North Africa only.
