Abstract: | An account is given of the eight species of Esthiopterum parasitic on cranes, and the three species-groups into which they are divided are characterised. Four of the species are described as new, redescriptions are given of the remainder, and a key for their separation is included. The affinities of the genus and host - parasite relations are discussed. |
