warning: ‘struct ’ declared inside parame ter list

i'm running ubuntu 8.04 with gcc-4.2 
and i'm getting 

mb_con.h:43: warning: ‘struct query_resp’ declared inside parameter list
mb_con.h:43: warning: its scope is only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you want

here's a snippet of how .h file looks

struct query_resp_type
{
  int type;
} query_resp;

void send_req(struct query_resp* resp);


what i don't understand is why this warning when i have declared the struct before the function in the header.

what am i missing ? 

thanks in advance !
