Abstract
We have previously reported on the cestode and trematode parasites of the Sheathbill at Signy Island (Jones & Williams 1967, 1968, 1969) and conclude with an account of the nematodes and Acanthocephala. Our previous reports were based on specimens obtained from 13 Sheathbills collected at Signy Island in July and October, 1965 by Mr. Charles Howie, British Antarctic Survey. In addition to these we have examined a further 12 Sheathbills taken at Signy Island in March, 1967. We are greatly indebted to Mr. E. A. Smith, Senior Biologist, British Antarctic Survey, for arranging the collection and transport of the latter material.Keywords
