Extract

During the past nine years the writer has collected many helminths from the gastro-intestinal tract of various antelopes in Northern Rhodesia.

Amongst the collected material are oesophagostomes from the Puku (Adenota vardoni), the Red Lechwe (Onotragus leche), the Duiker (Cephalophus natalensis), the Kudu (Strepsiceros strepsiceros) and the Roan Antelope (Hippotragus equinus).
