Abstract
A new flagellate, Proteromonas hemidactyli sp.nov., is described from the large intestine of the lizard, Hemidactylus brooki, in Hyderabad, India. It is characterized by a long, slender and fusiform body, two similar but subequal flagella, a kidney-shaped sub-blepharoplastic body, a ribbon-like paranuclear body and a vesicular nucleus. A parabasal body is absent.I am extremely grateful to Dr S. S. Qadri, Reader in Zoology, Osmania University, Hyderabad for his guidance and advice during the course of this work. I am thankful to Dr S. Mehdi Ali, Professor of Zoology, Marathwada University, and Dr S. N. Singh, Professor of Zoology, Osmania University, for providing me with laboratory and library facilities. Thanks are also due to the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, New Delhi, for the award of a fellowship.
