Extract

At the beginning of this year, a Malay Tiger (Felis tigris) which had been nearly two years in the Edinburgh Zoological Gardens, died. On post mortem examination, it was found to harbour Dibothriocephalus felis, Galoncus perniciosus and Toxascaris leonina in its small intestine; and Paragonimus westermani, Capillaria sp. (a single female) and the three nematodes which are the subject of this paper, in its lungs.
