Extract

The genus Myriocladus Okada is considered to be a synonym of the genus Dendrogaster Knipowitsch.

The female and male of a new species, D. tasmaniensis sp.nov. from the sea-star Allostichaster polyplax (Müller and Troschel), are described.

Appendages interpreted as antennae are present in the female, male and ascothoracid larva of the new species.

A brief account is given of the manner in which the larva of D. tasmaniensis sp.nov. enters and escapes from the host.
