On a Collection of Burmese Cestodes

Abstract

The following paper lists the species of cestodes, not hitherto described by the author, obtained from Burmese animals during the years 1923–5. Many of the specimens were collected by Miss I. K. Reynolds while working in the Zoological Department of University College: the writer wishes to acknowledge his indebtedness to her for the use of data, material and slides. He also wishes to express his thanks to the Trustees of the Victoria Memorial Park for permission to collect helminths from animals dying in the gardens.
