Host.—Hyla evittata Miller, one abundant infection, from United States National Museum specimen No. 32106, 43 mm. long, from Easton, Maryland, September 8, 1903, H. L. Clark, collector. Measurements of an ordinary individual.—Length of body mm.; width of body mm.; thickness of body, anterior mm., middle mm., posterior mm.; diameter of nucleus Fig. 179.—Opalina tbrbak-mariae, X 117 diameters. mm. to mm.; cilia line interval, anterior mm., middle mm., posterior mm. In spite of the short, broad form of most individuals of this spe- cies, it still seems to be related to the general ohtrigona group, for some individuals show an obtrigona-like posterior end. It seems a distinct species. OPALINA COPEI, new species. Type.—United States National Museum No. 16586. Host.—Rana copei Boulenger, two infections from Pico Blanco, Costa Eica, W. M. Gabb, collector; of these the type infection is from United States National Museum specimen No. 30654, 42 mm.
