Extract

As indicated above, this species was collected by the writer from Galago crassicaudatus in Blantyre, Nyasaland. This is a new host record and a new locality record for the species. The measurements that the writer was able to make from his specimens contribute additional information to our knowledge of the size-range of this parasite and provide an example of how one and the same species of nematode may vary in size (but not in morphological details).
