A New Species

The grey squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis), although of comparatively recent introduction from North America, has become thoroughly acclimatised and may now be regarded as one of the native British Mammals. Comparatively little is known of its helminth parasites and the following oxyurid, found in the large intestine of a specimen shot in the north of Scotland, appears to be undescribed.
