Extract

1. A new species of Syngamus from the pharynx and nares of domestic cats in Trinidad is described.

2. The larval development from egg to 3rd stage larva is described with particular reference to the anatomy of the 3rd stage larva.

3. An attempt to trace the life cycle of the worm by direct infection of cats with the 3rd stage larvae was unsuccessful. It is suggested that an intermediate host is essential in the life cycle of this species.
