. Bulletin - United States National Museum. Science. o/m/n imm Figs. 260-268.—266, Hartertia confusa. Male tail. After Linstow, 1906. 267, Hartertia gallinarum. a, Lateral ; b, feont view of head ; c, female tail. 268, OVEJECTOR AND UTERI. ORIGINAL species but of Linstow's earlier species, Filaria rotundata Linstow, 1883. In order to straighten out the confusion caused by this use of the same specific name by the same author at different dates, the present writer has renamed the species and placed it, at least provisionally, in the genus Hartertia. The description as given by Linstow makes no mention of certain characters included in the generic diagnosis of Hartertia, as the trilobed division of the inner surface of the lips, but the species seems to be quite similar to Hartertia obesa, the type- species of the genus. This species, renamed Hartertia confusa, synonym Physaloptera rotundata Linstow, 1906, differs from Hartertia rotundata (Linstow, 1883) in the size of the body (H. confusa being less than half the length of the smallest specimens of H. rotundata), in absence of lateral alae, in a somewhat more anterior position of the vulva, in the much smaller size of the eggs, in different spicule lengths, width.
