Abstract
In 1916, the writer (Van Cleave, 1916) called attention to the fact that lack of published records should not be taken as an indication of scarcity of Acanthocephalans in the Chinese fauna. A single species of Centrorhynchus has been described from a magpie, and Faust (1921 a) has recorded the species common in the hog. As yet, apart from these two specific identifications, the acanthocephalan fauna of China has remained unknown.
