Extract

On many occasions during the years 1921 and 1922 I devoted my leisure to collecting Cestode and other Helminth parasites from wild birds in the United and Central Provinces of India. A large proportion of the material collected consists of species already known but the remainder contains some new and interesting forms, and three of these I am describing in the present paper.
