Extract

A score of these large amphistomes were found in the collection made by Dr P. L. LeRoux, to whom we wish to express our gratitude for the privilege of examining them, and to Professor J. J. C. Buckley for his interest in the work. The characteristically large posterior sucker and its muscular structure places this amphistome in Nasmark's Gigantocotyle.
