Extract

Some years ago the South African Museum received a tube of mites taken from the South African scaly anteater, Smutsia temmincki, by Dr R. Bigalke, Director of the National Zoological Gardens at Pretoria. The tube contained more than 200 well-preserved gamasid mites, and I wish to express my thanks to Dr Bigalke and the authorities of the South African Museum for affording me this opportunity of studying these parasites.
