Some Strongylata

Abstract

The bursate nematodes here described have been obtained from three sources: (a) Dr F. W. O'Connor permitted me to deal with his valuable collection from Samoa and the Ellice and Gilbert Islands; (b) Sir Arthur Keith and Mr Burne allowed me to collect and examine certain Strongylata parasitising a gorilla whose body had been placed at the disposal of the College of Surgeons, and to compare them with Cobbold's type material from the ostrich; I am much indebted to these gentlemen for their aid; (c) my own Indian collection, supplemented by a gift from Professor Gedoelst, has furnished the remainder of the material.
