Extract

Twelve larval trematodes, herein described as Agamodistomum la-ruei n.sp., were found by Prof. La Rue, at the autopsy of a racoon, Procyon lotor lotor (Linn.), which had been kept for several months in captivity near Douglas Lake, Cheboygan County, Michigan, during the spring and summer of 1925. The parasites were found by teasing the lungs apart in water. It was not determined whether they were in the alveoli of the lungs or in the tissue. They were apparently not encysted.
