Extract

Although the common Filariid parasite of the Camel was identified as a distinct species more than forty years ago (Lewis, 1882), the recent memoir on Indian Nematodes by Baylis and Daubney (1923) contains the first intelligible account of the structure of the adult worm. Their description of the species, which they refer to the genus Acanthocheilonema, is based partly on some rather fragmentary material received from the Zoological Survey of India, and partly on notes and drawings supplied by Major F. H. Stewart, I.M.S.
