Extract

The material upon which this study is based was obtained from a Red-Bellied Water Snake, Francia abacura, from Florida, which had died at the Zoological Gardens, London. This particular snake had been at the Gardens for only a fortnight before its death, so unquestionably infestation had taken place in America before transfer to London. No opportunity was afforded the writer for studying the material in a living condition and consequently the measurements were made from preserved material in the Helminthological Collection of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.
