Extract

The material described in this paper was obtained from a mongoose (Herpestes albopunctatus Hodgson 1853), dead twelve hours when dissected. In the mesentery were numerous larval cestodes and in the intestine approximately fifty adults of another species. The preservation was good. The preservation was good. I wish here to acknowledge my indebtedness to Mr G. D. Bhalerao, M.Sc., of this University, for the help given me in the preparation of the specimens.
