Abstract
While I was in Egypt conducting investigations into the etiology of dysentery with. Captain F. W. O'Connor at Alexandria in 1916 I was able to make some observations on the intestinal protozoa of three species of lizard. The occurrence of an Entamoeba and a Chilomastix (Tetramitus) in one of these, Agama stellio, was mentioned in our publication on the Human Intestinal Protozoa in the Near East, p. 147 (1917). The other lizards investigated were Chamaeleon vulgaris and Lacerta agilis. I will describe the observations on the protozoa under their respective hosts.Keywords
