The conclusions arrived at are that there are only 2 true species of 
Echidnidce , E. aculecita and Proecliidna hruijnii. Of the former, however, 
there are 3 well-marked varieties : E. aculecita lawesi, from New Guinea; 
E. aculeata typica , from Australia ; E. aculecita setosa , from Tasmania. 
The recently described E. acanthion , Collett, is not even a variety of the 
common E. aculeata.
