Resumo

The cestodes in the present collection were collected at the Biological Laboratory of the Carnegie Institution of Washington at Dry Tortugas, Florida, in I930-I932 by Dr. H. W. Manter, under whose direction this study was made. Of the sixteen species reported, fourteen have been previously described, and two species seem to be new. Thirty species of cestodes of fish have been previously reported from Tortugas (Linton, I909, and Potter, I937). In this paper are given six new locality records and eleven new host records, as well as descriptions of two new species. New locality records are indicated by #; new host records by *.
