Extract

The following is a description of a new species of Accacoeliid Trematode found in the intestine of a sun-fish (Orthagoriscus mola Bloch), caught by a fisherman in June, 1933, at Salcombe, Devon. The fish was examined by Mr J. W. Poulton of Downing College, Cambridge, to whom my thanks are due for bringing me the parasites for identification. In addition to the species described in this paper the host contained the following forms: on the skin, Tristoma molae and Lepeophtheirus nordmanni; in the intestine, Ancistrocephalus microcephalus.
