Extract

During a survey of the helminth fauna of the domestic cat in the immediate vicinity of Foochow, Fukien Province, China, the junior author discovered paired roundworms in the vestibule of the middle ear of this host. These parasites were first found in 1932 and again in the spring and fall of 1933. There appears to be no seasonal infection. Of forty-eight animals sacrificed eleven (22·9 per cent.) were found to be infected.
