The ova are ovoid, mm. long and mm. broad. Tenia asiatica, v. Linstow, 1901. von Linstow recently described a tenia of man which was found by Anger in Aschabad. The specimen is 298 mm. long; the segments are broader than they are long and their chain is narrow. The foremost proglottides have a breadth of only mm. with a length that cannot be estimated. Later they increase in breadth from , and in length gradually to mm. The posterior border of the segments slightly overlaps the beginning of the follow- ing one. Seven hundred and fifty proglottides were present; the scolex was absent. The formation of tbe uterus, as well as that of the otber sexual organs, suggests that this variety belongs to the tenia madagascariensis.
