Extract

Perusal of the first volume of “Nomenclator Zoologicus” shows, on p. 927, that the generic name Cylindrogaster was first proposed by Stål in 1855 for a Dermapteran insect. As a consequence of this it becomes necessary to put forward a new generic name in place of Cylindrogaster which the writer (Goodey, 1927) gave to a saprophagous nematode obtained from a culture of rat faeces.
