Extract

The nomenclature of the parasitic flagellates of invertebrates is in such a state of chaos at the present time, that I have collected the history of the three more important genera Leptomonas, Herpetomonas, and Crithidia, in the hope that it will end the controversies which surround the application of any one of these names.
