RESEARCHES ON THE ATTAINMENT OF VERY

ASSISTANT PROFESSOR OF CHEMISTRY, AND FELLOW OF UNIVERSITY
COLLEGE, LONDON, ENGLAND.
PAR I.
I. INTRODUCTION.
The following is an account of a series of experiments which
originated in the year 1900 in an attempt to obtain a small quantity of
liquid hydrogen, to be used in separating the gas neon from helium and
argon, with which neon is associated in atmospheric air. Sir William
Ramsay and I had, at that time, succeeded in separating the gases
argon, krypton and xenon from one another, by condensing mix-
tures containing them in bulbs cooled in liquid air, and submitting
the solid or liquid to fractional distillation. This method could not,
however, be applied to the separation of neon; for, as subsequent ex-
periment has proved, the critical point of this gas lies below 65° abs.,
and consequently it could not be condensed at the temperature of
liquid air. It was obvious that unless liquid hydrogen could be ob-
tained, and applied to the separation of the neon from its companions,
it would be impossible to obtain the gas in a pure state, and the work
on the inactive gases would remain incomplete.
Experiments on the liquefaction of hydrogen were commenced in
March, 1900. After some six or eight failures, mainly the results of
attempts to adapt an old air liquefier to the new purpose, I devised and
constructed an apparatus with which I was able to obtain the neces-
sary quantity of liquid. The work was brought to a successful con-
clusion on July 6 of that year, and the separation of the pure neon
was effected.
During the years 1901 and 1902 I was engaged, with the assistance
of Mr. George Senter and Dr. Adrien Jaquerod, in making accurate
measurements of the pressure-coefficients of hydrogen and helium, and
i) comparing the constant-volume hydrogen and helium thermometers
over wide ranges of temperature. This investigation involved the
measurement of the vapor-pressures of liquid oxygen and of liquid
* The researches described by Doctor Travers were carried on with the aid
of a grant from the Hodgkins Fund of the Smithsonian Institution. It is ex-
pected that further researches by Doctor Travers will be published as Part II.

hydrogen at temperatures on the scales of the two thermometers,
cerresponding to pressures below 800 millimeters of mercury. The
liquid hydrogen employed in the researches was obtained by means
of the apparatus already referred to. For this purpose, however, it
was modified in some details so as to render the production of liquid
hydrogen a matter of certainty. Indeed, eight out of nine experiments
arried out during the summer of 1902 were successful; the one
failure being due to the breaking down of the compressor. The re-
sults of these investigations have been published in the Philosophical
Transactions of the Royal Society.
On concluding this work I turned my attention to the improve-
ment of the apparatus for liquefying hydrogen, and to the theoretical
investigation of the processes involved. An account of this work is
contained in the following pages.
it ElistToriesm
The researches of numerous investigators, notably those of Faraday
and Thilorier, carried out during the early part of the last century,
had resulted in the liquefaction of all the gases then known, with the
exception of hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, carbon monoxide, nitric
oxide, and methane, which hence received the name of permanent
gases. Though Faraday had probably some conception of the explana-
tion of their behavior, it was undoubtedly a matter of general opinion
that the gases possessed in themselves a permanent character, or that
they would ultimately liquefy were the pressure on them sufficient. It
was not until 1869, when Andrews proved there is for each substance
a. critical temperature above which the liquid and vapor cannot be
differentiated, that existence of permanent gases was explained.
No further advance towards the liquefaction of the permanent
gases was made till 1877 when, on December 24, communications were
received by the French Academy independently from M. Raoul Pictet
of Geneva and from M. Louis Cailletet of Chatillon-sur-Seine, announc-
ing the liquefaction of oxygen. A week later M. Cailletet described to
the academy some experiments in which, by the process of com-
pression and subsequent expansion of hydrogen, he had succeeded in
producing in it a mist, presumably of liquid.
The following is transcribed from the paper which appeared in the
Comptes Rendus (1877, 85, 1270):
“ Dans mes premiers essais, je n’avais rien reconnu de particulier ;
mais, comme il arrive souvent dans les sciences expérimentales, |’habi-
tude d’observer les phénoménes finit par en faire reconnaitre les signes
dans les conditions ot ils avaient d’abord passé inapercus.
“Cest ce qui arrive pour l’hydrogéne. En répétant aujord’hui
meme, en présence de MM. Berthelot, H. Sainte-Claire Deville et
ATTAINMENT OF VERY LOW TEMPERATURES. 3
Mascart, qui veulent bien m’autoriser a invoquer leur témoignage j'ai
réeussi a observer des indices de liquéfaction de l’hydrogéne, dans les
conditions d’évidence qui n’ont paru douteuses a aucum des savants
témoins de l’expérience. Celle-ci a été répétée un grand nombre de
fois. En opérant avec de l'‘hydrogéne pur comprimé vers 280 atmos-
pheres, puis brusquement détendu, nous avons vu se former un
brouillard excessivement fin et subtil, suspendu dans toute la longueur
du gaz et qui disparaissait subitement. La production méme de ce
brouillard, malgré son extréme subtilité, a paru incontestable a tous
les savants. ‘i
In the light of our present knowledge of the properties of liquid
hydrogen some other explanation must be given to the phenomenon
observed by M. Cailletet and his colleagues. Possibly the mist was
caused by the condensation of some impurity in the hydrogen.
Next year M. Pictet published a similar statement.* Hydrogen
was generated by heating potassium formate with caustic potash in a
closed apparatus connected with a steel tube terminating in a stopcock.
When the pressure had risen to 650 atmospheres, and the tube was
cooled to about — 140°C., the cock was opened. The jet of hydrogen
issuing from the cock appeared steel-blue in color, and opaque for a
length of twelve centimeters. The substance forming the jet struck
the ground with a sound like that of hail falling on the earth. It is
probable that the explanation of the phenomenon lies in the formation
of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide by the decomposition of the
sodium formate.
The earliest experiments leading to results which can in any way
be considered as reliable are those of the Polish chemists Wroblewski
and Olszewski, which were commenced in 1882, and were carried out
partly in conjunction, partly independently, during the succeeding
years. That the work presented great difficulties may be imagined
when we read of six cubic centimeters of liquid air referred to as “a
large quantity.”
The earlier experiments, described in letters to the Cracow Academy
and in communications to the French Academy, are probably of little
direct value, except in so far as they show the efforts which were being
made. The following is an extract from one of Wroblewski’s papers :+
“TL’hydrogéne soumis a la pression de 180 atm. jusqu’a 190 atm.

apparence métallique.
“Jai pu placer dans cette mousse ma pile thermo-électrique et j’ai
obtenu suivant les pressions employées des temperatures de — 208°
jusqu’a — 211°C.”
The last statement shows clearly that little weight can be attached
to these experiments.
Professor Wroblewski’s more important work consisted in an in-
vestigation of the isothermals of hydrogen at low temperatures, under-
taken with a view to the calculation of the critical constants. In this
work he was engaged at the time of his death, which occurred in
1888 through an accident with a paraffin lamp. The results were
fortunately ready for publication, and appeared shortly afterwards in
the Sitzungsberichte of the Vienna Academy (October 25, 1888).
The following values for the critical constant were calculated by
means of an equation of the “ Clausius” form:
Critical atemperatune-caaeace: ce cee eee — 240.4° C.
Critical pressures saris caionveiree ene are — 13.3 atm.
Critical volum Gevsseeas cee soon CoC eee 0.00335 C.c.
An exhaustive account of Professor Olszewski’s later experiments
on the liquefaction of hydrogen has been published by him in the
Philosophical Magazine for 1895.* The paper also contains a gen-
eral account of his researches on liquefied gases. The following is an
account of his attempt to liquefy hydrogen.
Pure hydrogen was compressed into a glass tube 11 mm. in external
diameter and 7 mm. in internal diameter, containing a very thin-walled
glass tube, 6 mm. in diameter, to isolate the hydrogen from the warmer —
walls of the larger tube. The apparatus was cooled with liquid air
boiling under less than 10 millimeters pressure. The remaining opera-
tions are described by the author in the following words:
“T introduced hydrogen into the tube by slowly opening the cock
on the cylinder (which contained pure hydrogen under pressure) till
the pressure rose to 140 atmospheres. When the hydrogen in the tube
had come down to the temperature of the cooling agent, I little by little
produced expansion by opening the screw-cock. The phenomenon of
hydrogen ebullition, which was then observed, was much more marked
and much longer than during my former investigations in the same
direction. But even then I could not perceive any meniscus of liquid
hydrogen.
“T have remarked in these experiments that with a slow expansion
the phenomenon of sudden ebullition always appears under the same
pressure, no matter how great the initial pressure may be, provided
* Vol. 30, p. 188.
ATTAINMENT OF VERY LOW TEMPERATURES. 5
that value be not too low. So that by expansions made, beginning
with the pressures of 80, 90, 100, I10, 120, 130, 140 atm., the phenome-
non described constantly appeared at 20 atm. ; but if the initial pres-
sure was 70, 60 and 50 atm., the ebullition appeared at a lower and
lower pressure.
“To ascertain the truth of this statement I performed two series
of analogous experiments with gases, the critical pressures and tem-
peratures of which are accurately known, viz. with oxygen and
ethylene. The critical temperature of oxygen is, according to my
former researches, —118.8° and its critical pressure is 50.8 atm. In
the same apparatus which I used for the experiments with hydrogen I
cooled oxygen by means of ethylene boiling under atmospheric pressure
_. . and subjected it to slow expansion beginning with initial pressures,
from 40 atm., up to 100 atm. The ebullition of oxygen always ap-
peared at a pressure of about 51 atm., provided the initial pressure was
not lower than 80 atm.
“T made similar experiments with ethylene, using the apparatus of
eailletet. . . .”
These experiments confirmed those made with oxygen, indicating
that this “dynamical method” is applicable to the determination of
critical pressures, though it would only be employed in cases, like that
of hydrogen, when no other course was possible.
The next paper published in the same year* describes the applica-
tion of these results to the determination of the critical and boiling
temperatures of hydrogen. In place of the glass compression tube a
steel vessel containing a very thin-walled glass tube was employed, the
whole enclosing a resistance thermometer consisting of a very fine wire
of pure platinum wound on a frame of thin mica. The wire had a
diameter of 0.06 mm.; its resistance was determined at the following
temperatures :
‘Temperature. Resistance.

— 208.3° 453)
The hydrogen was compressed into the steel apparatus, which was
cooled as in the previous experiment in liquid oxygen boiling under a
pressure of 15 mm., and the expansion was carried out in the usual
manner. The resistance of the coil was measured by means of a
Wheatstone bridge and reflecting galvanometer, and resistance in the
opposite arms of the balance was repeatedly adjusted, till on making
the expansion no deflection of the galvanometer was observed. The
following results were obtained:

The temperature in the last column was calculated by linear extra-
polation from the resistance of the coil at temperatures corresponding
to — 182.5°C. and — 208.5°C.
According to Dewar, though the method by which the measurements
were made has not been published, the critical temperature of hydro-
gen is about — 244°C., and the critical pressure less than 15 atmos-
pheres. The boiling point of hydrogen according to Travers and
Jaquerod* is 20.55° on the helium scale and 20.36° on the hydrogen
scale. Callendar} has pointed out the recalculation of Olszewski’s re-
sults by means of his difference formula leads to the conclusion that the
temperatures are about one degree higher than those given above; at
the same time it is possible that the platinum thermometer may behave
erratically at low temperatures. This latter view is confirmed by
Dewar, who obtained — 243.6° and — 237.9° for the boiling point
of hydrogen on two platinum thermometers; one of these values is
almost identical with that obtained by Olszewski.
These facts may be taken as sufficient evidence that Olszewski
obtained liquid hydrogen, first in the form of a mist or spray in a glass
tube, and afterwards in a steel vessel. In the latter experiment it is
probable that the liquid at its boiling point persisted for a sufficient
time to cool a platinum resistance thermometer to that temperature.
III. THEORETICAL DiIscUSSION OF THE FOREGOING.
In discussing the principles on which the experiments of Cailletet,
Pictet, Wroblewski and Olszewski on the one hand, and of Dewar and
myself on the other hand, considerable confusion has arisen. Indeed
several well-known text-books of physics, and even certain works
devoted to the study of liquefied gases, attribute the cooling which takes
place in every case to adiabatic expansion. Dewar’s early papers make
no mention of the fact that in his, as in my own experiments, the cooling
is due to the fact that when hydrogen is cooled to the temperature of
liquid air it, like air or carbonic acid, becomes cooled when allowed
to expand without performing external work. The cooling may be the
result of work done against internal forces. This matter is first dis-
cussed in my paper on the liquefaction of hydrogen published in igor.
In the earlier experiments referred to above, the gas was compressed
either into a tube over mercury, so that in opening a cock the mercury

escaped from the tube as the gas expanded; or the gas was com-
pressed directly by means of a pump into a glass or steel vessel, and
then part of it was allowed to escape directly through an orifice. In
the first case the gas exerted a pressure on the mercury, and on ex-
panding did work which was performed in giving the mercury a certain
velocity through the escape cock, and partly in overcoming fluid fric-
tion. In the second case, part of the gas which remained in the vessel
did work in driving the remainder through the orifice or cock, partly in
overcoming friction at the orifice, partly in giving to the gas an in-
creased velocity, which would quickly be dissipated in the formation of
eddy currents outside the orifice.
If we were dealing with a perfect gas for which the simple law
pv = const.
were rigidly true, and if such a gas were allowed to expand, or were
compressed, adiabatically, the relation between pressure and volume
would be expressed by the equation
pu = const.,
where k is the ratio of the specific heat at constant pressure to the
specific heat at constant volume. If the gas were allowed to expand
adiabatically under the conditions mentioned above, where p, and /,
are the initial and final pressure, and 7, and T, the initial and final
absolute temperatures,
nO Le
Since the heat capacity of the gas is always considerably less than
that of the vessel in which it is contained, the condition represented
above is probably never approached, though, as Olszewski’s later ex-
periments show, a considerable degree of cooling can be effected. The
practical application of the principle is probably only possible on a
large scale.
Olszewski’s observation that when the initial pressure in the appa-
ratus exceeded a certain value the liquid always appears when the
pressure falls to the critical pressure, is not further discussed by him;
the phenomenon can, however, be simply explained by means of an
Andrews diagram (fig. 1).
Suppose that the gas is compressed along the isothermal a a’ a” a”,
and under the conditions determined by these points is, in successive
experiments, allowed to expand adiabatically. In each case liquid
should first appear at the point at which the adiabatic cuts the dotted
line enclosing the area which represents the conditions under which the

liquid and gaseous phases can connect. The adiabatic a” b’’” passes
through the critical point, so that in this case the liquid will first appear
at the critical pressure. For higher initial compressions the adiabatics
will lie on the left hand side of the critical point on the diagram, and

liquid will first appear under conditions represented by the point at
which they cut the horizontal line drawn through the critical point.
For high pressures the adiabatics will, of course, lie very close to-
gether, and the horizontal line will differ but slightly from the curve
joining the ends of the horizontal section of the isothermal.
IV. THe APPLICATION OF THE JOULE-THOMSON EFFECT TO THE
LIQUEFACTION OF AIR.
The change in temperature which takes place when a gas is allowed
to expand without performing effective external work was first studied
by Joule and Lord Kelvin in 1848. The gas compressed to about two
ATTAINMENT OF VERY LOW TEMPERATURES. 9
atmospheres flowed in a steady stream through a plug of compressed
fiber so that the increase in the kinetic energy of the gas, which would
take place if the gas streamed through an orifice in a plate, was re-
duced to a minimum, and practically eliminated. In passing from the
higher to the lower pressure work was done in overcoming internal
friction, so that were the gas a perfect one its total energy content
would remain constant, and there would be no change of temperature.
In the case of air and carbon dioxide it was found, however, that a fall
of temperature took place; hydrogen, on the other hand, became
warmer.
The change of temperature must be attributed to the performance
of work in overcoming internal stresses ; though as to what the nature
of these stresses may be we have at present no knowledge. In
many text-books of physics it is stated that the direction of the change
of temperature, the sign of the Joule-Thomson effect, is connected with
the variation of the product “ PV ” with pressure for the gas. Though
for hydrogen (and helium) the value of the product increases with
rise of pressure, while it decreases in the case of air and all other gases,
this relationship does not really apply. For pressures above fifty
atmospheres the value of the product PV for air increases with rise of
pressure, yet, if we expand air from 100 atmospheres to 50 atmos-
pheres, it still becomes cooled.
For small differences of pressure the change of temperature was
found to be directly proportional to the difference between the pressure
on the two sides of the plug. The results are stated by the original
investigators in terms of degrees Centigrade per hundred inches of
mercury differences of pressure; it is now more usual to express the
value of the Joule-Thomson effect in terms of degrees per atmosphere
difference of pressure.
The experiments which were carried out at temperatures between
the boiling and melting points of water, showed that the magnitude of
the effect varied with the temperature, and might be represented by the
formula,

where x is the Joule-Thomson Effect, T is the absolute temperature
and g and f# are constants. The values of the constants for air and
hydrogen are as follows:

These figures indicate that for either gas above a certain tempera-
ture, the inversion temperature of the Joule-Thomson effect, the effect

will be positive; below that temperature it will be negative. The in-
version points calculated by Witkowski are 633° and 193.7° absolute
for air and hydrogen respectively. Olszewski (Nature, 1902) confirms
the second figure, finding 192.5° absolute for the inversion point for
hydrogen. He points out that the inversion points are practically
corresponding temperatures for the two gases.
The application of the principle of free expansion to the liquefaction
of air was first made practicable by Hampson in England and Linde in
Germany. Since Hampson and Linde’s work paved the way to the
production of liquid hydrogen, by a very similar process, and as my
researches have been based upon their results, some mention must be
made of their work. To Dr. Hampson I am particularly indebted for
much advice and assistance in carrying out my investigations.
V. ‘THE PERFORMANCE OF THE HAmpson AIR LIQUEFIER.
The Hampson air liquefier is too well known to require a lengthy
description. It consists of a coil formed by winding two, or in some
cases four, copper tubes coaxially so as to build up a cylinder 100 cm.
long and 30 cm. in diameter. The coil is enclosed in a metal case.
Air enters the copper tube at the top under a pressure of 180 atmos-
pheres, and expands at a valve, in which the tubes unite at the bottom
of the coil. The air, cooled by expansion, presses upwards through the
interstices of the coil, cooling the compressed air it contains. The
cooling of the valve is therefore progressive, and results, after a few
minutes, in the partial liquefaction of the escaping air. The liquid
collects in a space at the bottom of the metal case containing the coil,
and is drawn off from time to time through a cock.
The apparatus as installed in the Chemical Department of Uni-
versity College, London, is worked in connection with a Whitehead
“torpedo compressor” driven by an electro-motor. To deliver about
ten cubic meters of air per hour (measured under atmospheric condi-
tions), and to maintain a pressure in the liquefier of 180 atmospheres,
requires the expenditure of about 6.5 horse-power; the compressor
runs at 360 revolutions per minute. An attempt has been made by Mr.
Arnold Ogden and myself to determine the efficiency of the plant. I
have also carried out a fairly complete investigation of the air liquefier.
The work done in compressing the air was determined by measur-
ing the electrical energy absorbed by the motor under the following
conditions :

than would be required for isothermal compression. The compression
is carried out in two stages, the ratio of the initial to the final pressure
being the same in each stage, so that thrusts on the two pistons were
balanced. The pressure in the coil and pipe connecting the two
cylinders was measured during one of the trials, and was found to vary
between thirteen and fourteen atmospheres. In a larger compressor,
working at a slower speed, the compression would approach much more
closely to the isothermal. ‘The efficiency, which is only about 0.13 in
the Whitehead compressor, would also be much higher.
The investigation of the Hampson air liquefier proved somewhat
troublesome as many factors had to be taken into consideration. It
was necessary to measure:
The total quantity of air passing through the apparatus.
The quantity of liquid air produced.
The rate of absorption of heat by the coil through conduction, in
terms of the liquid air evaporated.
The loss, through evaporation, of liquid air on drawing off the
liquid from the cock at the bottom of the apparatus.
The pressure and temperature of the air entering and leaving the
apparatus.
The temperature of the liquid air.
The total quantity of air passing through the apparatus was meas-
ured by connecting the exhaust pipe of the liquefier with a gas meter.
This “ sixty-light ” meter was placed at my disposal by the Gas Light
and Coke Company of London; to the manager of the Company I wish
to tender my thanks.
The liquid air was drawn off at definite intervals into a weighed
globular vacuum vessel, silvered between the walls. The vessel was
half full of liquid air at the commencement of each experiment, and
the rate at which liquid air evaporated from it was determined.
To measure the quantity of air lost by evaporation of the liquid, as
it issued from the cock on the Hampson apparatus, the arrangement
shown in fig. 2, A, B, was adopted. The mouth of the vacuum vessel
a was fitted with a rubber stopper b, through which passed a tube c of
the same diameter as the thumb-screw f on the liquid air valve e of the
Hampson liquefier, with which it was connected by means of a piece

of wide rubber tube. The side tube d communicated by means of a
flexible rubber tube with a small gasometer.
The vacuum vessel rested on the point at which it was finally sealed
(fig. 2, B), so that when the liquid air cock was opened by rotating the

thumb screw f, it merely turned on its axis. The quantity of gaseous
air produced by the evaporation of the liquid air could be measured
by measuring the rise of the gasometer attached to d. The quantity
of liquid air collected in the vacuum vessel amounted to about one
kilogram per hour; the loss by evaporation corresponding to the same
period was usually seventy to eighty grams per hour.
The quantity of heat entering the Hampson apparatus through its
insulating packing of animal wool was determined by stopping the com-
pressor when the liquid air in the collecting chamber had been allowed
to accumulate for five minutes, closing the expansion valve, allowing
the air to escape from the regenerator coil by means of a side-cock but-
side the apparatus, and measuring the rate of evaporation of the liquid
air from the inside of the apparatus, and the rate of change of tem-
perature of the regenerator coil. The latter measurement was made
by means of an air thermometer with a narrow cylindrical bulb which
was inserted through the center of the coil in place of the valve spindle.
The following is a record of the results of an experiment.

It will be seen that as soon as the circulation of the air through
the apparatus was suspended the liquid air in it began to evaporate
rapidly, heat being conveyed to it by conduction from the outside.
However, long before the whole of the liquid air in the apparatus had
evaporated the temperature of the coils had become steady and the
quantity of liquid air thus evaporating per minute could be taken as a
measure of the quantity of heat entering the apparatus during the
process of liquefying air. This quantity corresponds to about 2.6
liters of gaseous air per minute, or to a loss of 200 grams of liquid air
per hour.
During an actual experiment it was the duty of one assistant to
maintain a steady current of air, escaping at an almost constant pressure,
through the apparatus. The pressure gauges were read every minute;
the gas meter readings were taken at the end of every half hour, the
liquid air was drawn off every five minutes, and the vacuum vessels
removed and weighed every half hour; the temperature at which the
air entered and left the apparatus and the barometer readings were
taken at intervals during an experiment. The following are the re-
sults of some observations:

accuracy of the results to within about two percent of the truth. The
final result leads to the conclusion that the theoretical quantity of liquid
air which it should be possible to obtain by the Hampson-Linde prin-
ciples, where the air is expanded from 180 atmospheres, is between
eight and nine percent of the air passing into the apparatus.
The complete theoretical study of the Hampson-Linde process is
impossible, both on account of its highly complicated nature, and of our
ignorance of the thermodynamic properties of air over wide ranges
of temperature and pressure. The results stated above lead however
to conclusions which are interesting and are hardly likely to be merely
a matter of chance.
If air were compressed to P atmospheres and allowed to expand, as
in the Hampson machine, but so that the current of air did not flow
back over the coil, the fall of temperature of the escaping gas at a short
distance from the jet could be calculated from the formula
AT=x(P—p)),
and the heat absorbed by
4Q = x(P— p)O.
where is the Joule-Thomson Effect and Cp is the specific heat at a
constant pressure of one atmosphere.
Since the work done on the gas in bringing it toward the jet is
practically equal to the work done by the gas in its passage away from
the jet pu being very nearly constant, the quantity JQ is a measure of
the change in the internal energy of the gas in passing from pressure
P to pressure p. This being the case it should be possible to pass over
intermediate stages to calculate the quantity of liquid air produced in
the Hampson apparatus from known data.
The specific heat at a constant pressure of one atmosphere (Cp) has
been found by Witkowski* to have the value of 0.237 between 100°C.
and the temperature of liquid air; the same value was obtained by
Regnault for the higher range of temperature. The Joule-Thomson
effect at 10°, the mean temperature of the air entering the liquefier, was
found by Joule and Lord Kelvin to be 0.25°C. per atmosphere. The
latent heat of vaporization of air is about 50 cal.
Suppose the air enters the liquefier at 165 atmospheres pressure and
at 9.5°C. If 1/x of the air liquefies at 87° abs.,
Heat absorption on expansion = 0.25 X 0.237 X 164;

ATTATNMENT OF VERY LOW TEMPERATURES. 15
Quantity of air liquefied — 9.5 to 10 percent.
This result is of considerable value in considering the phenomena
connected with the liquefaction of hydrogen.
VI. THe LIQUEFACTION OF HypDROGEN. PRELIMINARY
EXPERIMENTS.
It has already been pointed out that the original experiments of
Joule and Lord Kelvin showed that hydrogen, when allowed to expand
freely, behaved differently from other gases, becoming heated instead
of cooled. The magnitude of the effect depended upon the absolute
temperature at which the experiment was performed, decreasing with
fall of temperature. From their experiments it might be predicted that
the effect would change sign at very low temperatures. Employing the
formula,
to represent the experimental results, Witkowski found 64.1 and 0.331
for the values of the constants g and # respectively, and — 79°C. for
the inversion point of the effect. Witkowski’s prediction has recently
been verified experimentally by Olszewski (p. Io).
In 1898 Dewar* succeeded in obtaining a jet of hydrogen suffi-
ciently cold to solidify air, and later constructed an apparatus with
which he obtained liquid hydrogen in quantity. In his first experiments
he compressed the gas into steel cylinders under 180 atmospheres, and
then allowed it to pass through coils cooled in solid carbonic acid, and
in liquid air boiling under reduced pressure, to a regenerator coil con-
tained within a vacuum vessel. The gas escaped through a pin valve
at the bottom of the regeneratory coil, and became cooled, but before
any liquid could be collected the opening had become blocked with
some solid impurity, and the experiment was at an end. Later, Dewar
constructed a larger apparatus, and succeeded in obtaining liquid
hydrogen in quantity. He has not, however, published any descrip-
tion of it.
Dewar’s first experiment had confirmed the prediction that hydro-
gen, when cooled to the temperature of liquid air, became further
cooled on free expansion, but it did not throw any further light on the
behavior of this gas. Indeed it still remained possible, though perhaps
improbable, that it would only be necessary to cool the gas to the
temperature of solid carbonic acid before allowing it to enter the
regenerator coil of the liquefaction apparatus. Accordingly some pre-
liminary experiments were set on foot in which a Hampson air lique-
fier, modified as occasion required, was employed.

16 ATTAINMENT OF VERY LOW TEMPERATURES.
In my first experiments the hydrogen before entering the regen-
erator coil of the Hampson apparatus, which was cooled by making
liquid air in it, was passed through a coil immersed in solid carbonic
acid and alcohol (—78°C.). The result was negative; indeed, it
appeared that the temperature of the inside of the apparatus began to
rise as soon as the hydrogen was allowed to expand in it, for on opening
the liquid air cock at the base of the apparatus the temperature of the
gas which escaped ceased after the first few minutes from being ex-
tremely cold.
More than two months were spent in similar experiments with like
results. If, however, these experiments led to no immediate results,
they showed clearly that even though it might be theoretically pos-
sible to liquefy hydrogen by the method of free expansion without
employing liquid air as a cooling agent, it was practically essential to
cool the gas to the lowest attainable temperature before allowing it to
expand. This knowledge, and the experience in dealing with com-
pressed hydrogen, gained in the course of these experiments led me to
design an apparatus with which I was at once successful in obtaining
liquid hydrogen. ‘The apparatus I constructed, with the assistance of
Mr. J. Holding, without whom I could not have carried on these re-
searches ; it cost but a few shillings, and after being slightly modified
it served me again in 1902 in my researches on the properties of liquid
hydrogen.
VII. Tue First Hyprocen LIQUEFIER.
This apparatus has been fully described in a paper read before the
Physical Society of London in November, 1900.* Fig. 3, A and B,
shows the general structure of the apparatus as first used, and the
modifications which were introduced into it for my later experiments.
In the original form (A), the hydrogen, under a pressure of from
150 to 180 atmospheres, was first cooled to —75° by passing through a
coil A immersed in a mixture of solid carbonic acid and alcohol. It
then passed through a coil contained within the central chamber B,
which, during an experiment, was continually replenished with liquid
air. The coil passed through the floor of the chamber B into a lower
chamber C, which communicated with an exhaust pump through the
pipe f. Liquid air was allowed to flow from B into C through a valve,
which was controlled from above by the lever b, and evaporating under
a pressure of 100 mm. reduced the temperature of the compressed gas
to below — 200°C.
The gas then entered the regenerator coil D, which was much
shorter than in the Hampson air liquefier, being 180 mm. long and 50
mm. in diameter. The reason for taking these dimensions will be dealt

with later (Part 11). The regenerator coil and the lower part of the
chamber C were enclosed within the vacuum vessel H, which was
secured to the metallic part of the apparatus by means of a gland p (fig.
4) which compressed a rubber ring into the space between the outer wall

of the vacuum vessel and the inner wall of the tube m, making a gas-
tight junction. The apparatus rested on a brass flange, soldered to the
tube m, in a round hole in a wooden shelf fixed to the wall of the com-
pressor room. The upper part was surrounded with a thick layer of
natural wool.
The hydrogen expanding at the valve E, which was controlled by
the lever a, became further cooled, and passing upward through the
snterstices of the coil, cooling it and the gas passing through it, so that
after a short time liquid began to separate in the vacuum vessel. From
the top of the regenerator coil the gas passed through the annular
space F, surrounding the chambers B and C, and returned through the
tuge G to the compressor.
18 ATTAINMENT OF VERY LOW TEMPERATURES.
The hydrogen which liquefied in H was drawn off and collected by
the method described on page 20. The arrangements for the com-
pression and circulation of the hydrogen gas will also be dealt with
later.
The modifications which were introduced into the apparatus, when
I recommenced my experiments in 1902, were simple though important.
As originally constructed the coil in the liquid air chamber B was so
short that it did not present sufficient surface for the effective cooling
of the compressed gas passing through it. Further, the chamber B
was so narrow that not only was it difficult to fill it with liquid air, but
if, through irregular adjustment of the valve, there was a sudden rush
of gas through the coil, the liquid air boiled violently, and overflowed
the chamber.
This difficulty was easily overcome by introducing between 4 and B
(fig. 3, B) a coil B’ consisting of two five-meter lengths of copper pipe
wound into an open spiral. The pipes were carefully spaced by means
of pieces of copper wire soldered to them at intervals. The coil was
immersed in liquid air contained in the inner of two glass beakers,
which were separated by pieces of cork, so as to leave an air space
between them, and surrounded with a thick layer of natural wool.
A copper funnel was also soldered to the top of the tube which
formed the chamber B, to facilitate the operation of filling it with liquid
air. The apparatus as thus modified was used about ten times. Of
these experiments only one failed through a break-down in the com-
pressor.
VIII. THe Sreconp HyproGEN LIQUEFIER.
Shortly after I had completed the researches I have just referred to,
I was asked by Professor d’Arsonval of Paris, and by Professor
Anschutz of Bonn, to design hydrogen liquefiers for their laboratories.
As I had not then carried out any further experiments with a view to
improving my method of liquefying hydrogen, and as the apparatus
I had already constructed had given me perfect satisfaction, except that
it was not very economic so far as the refrigerants, liquid air and car-
bon dioxide, were concerned, I designed another machine of the same
principle but of a more compact form. The apparatus was constructed
by Brin’s Oxygen Company.
A section of the apparatus is shown in fig. 4. The hydrogen from
the compressor enters the apparatus at the cross-piece below the pres-
sure gauge and passes first through the coil in the chamber A, which is
intended to contain a mixture of carbonic acid and alcohol. The whole
system of coils is double, each component being of the same length.
The total length of copper coil in each of the chambers A and B is
about twenty meters. The cock + is intended to allow the hydrogen

to escape and return to the gasometer in case the expansion valve E
becomes blocked. After
passing through 4, the
compressed gas passes
through the coils in the
chambers B and C. The
chamber B_ contains
liquid air, some of which
is allowed to flow into C
through a pin valve
which is regulated by
the rod 6. The liquid
air in C evaporates un-
der a pressure of about
100 millimeters of mer-
cury, an exhaust being
maintained by means of
a pump communicating
with B through the tube
f, and reduces the tem-
perature of the com-
pressed gas to below
20006. Lhe: total
feneth; or ‘coil in the
chamber C is about five
meters. The gas then
enters the regenerator
coil D, 180 mm. long
and 50 mm. diameter,
and passing through it
expands at the valve E£,
which is controlled by
means of the valve-rod
and. leyer @ The ex-
panded gas passes up-
wards through the in-
terstices of the regenera-
tor coil, and returns by
way of the annular space
F and the tube G to the
compressor.

of the vacuum-vessel H and the inner wall of the lower part of the sup-
porting tube mm is made. The brass ring o is supported above by a
slight flange on the inside of the lower portion of the tube m, and a
rubber ring is compressed between this ring and a gland , which is
forced home by means of three screws, of which one is seen in the
diagram. As the lower part of the tube m is continuous with the brass
plate mn, it never becomes very cold, and the junction is always gas-tight.
The liquid hydrogen which is formed in the vacuum vessel H is
collected in the vessel K. This vessel is placed inside a tube L, which is
long enough to enclose H as far as the lower edge of the brass tube h,
which forms part of the gland p. A rubber sleeve is secured by wire to
h and L making a gas-tight junction. By opening the tap 7 gas can
be allowed to escape from the space within L, and consequently liquid
can flow from H into K. This enables one to dispense with a cock at
the bottom of the vacuum vessel H. By connecting the cock r to the
supply pipe from the gasometer (fig. 8, S), loss of hydrogen can be
avoided.
During an experiment, the tube L and its contents are enclosed
within an arrangement of three concentric glass shades in order to
shield off heat, and to prevent the condensation of moisture taking
place.
The apparatus is supported on a cast iron stand with a vertical
column 130 cm. high, which screws into the bottom of the brass plate
nn. This latter is of oval shape and supports
a brass case QO which surrounds the upper part
of the apparatus, the intermediate space being
packed with wool.
The use of the cocks ¢, v and w must now
be pointed out. With this type of liquefier, the
first step toward liquefaction of hydrogen is to
cool the whole apparatus to the temperature of
liquid air. With this object a small brass tap
V (fig. 5) is fitted by means of a rubber cap
to the nozzle of the vacuum vessel H and this
is in turn connected by a short piece of rubber
tube to a glass tube 300 mm. long. By closing
the cocks ¢ and w, opening the cock VY, and
starting the exhaust pump, liquid air can be
drawn through the glass tube and the cock V
into the vacuum vessel H from a vacuum ves-
sel, usually containing two liters of the liquid.
Liquid air is drawn into the vessel #7 till it
rises above the top of the coil D; then, by
closing the cock V and maintaining the exhaust, the temperature of

the coil can be reduced to below 200°C. Meanwhile liquid air is
poured into the chamber B, and by opening the cock ¢ some of it is
drawn into the chamber C.
IX. HyproGen LIQUEFIER WITH SECOND REGENERATOR COIL.
In each of the different forms of the hydrogen liquefier which have
hitherto been described there exists one very obvious defect: the
hydrogen, after expanding at the valve E and passing through the inter-
stices of the regenerator coil D, is at a temperature not far from
— 210°C., and in this condition it leaves the apparatus, absorbing heat
from the walls of the tube through which it passes on its return to the
compressor.
Now if we assume that the specific heat of hydrogen at a constant
pressure of one atmosphere is equal to 3.41 units over the range of
temperature we are considering (see page 14), the heat which each
gram of hydrogen would absorb in returning to the normal temperature
would be
Bil 220. — 7.50, init:
As approximately 1,000 grams of hydrogen pass through the apparatus
per hour, this involves a loss of 750,000 heat units, the equivalent of
fifteen liters of liquid air.
In order to estimate the relative advantage of employing the cold
hydrogen in place of solid carbonic acid as a means of cooling the
incoming gas, it would be necessary to determine the specific heat of
the compressed hydrogen over the range of temperature. The meas-
urements could not, however, be carried out with sufficient accuracy to
be of any real value without great difficulty, and, indeed, it would
make no appreciable difference were the specific heat of the hydrogen
half again as great.
If one assumes that the relationship between the internal energy of
the compressed and expanded hydrogen can be calculated, as in the case
of air, from the formula (page —),
10 = K(4p)Cp,
where 4Q is the heat generated or absorbed by the gas during its
passage through the regenerator coils of the apparatus, K the Joule-
Thomson Effect at which it enters the apparatus, Jp the fall of pressure
in the apparatus, and Cp the specific heat of the gas under a constant
pressure of one atmosphere,—to cool the gas compressed to 150 atmos-
phere from 15°C. to — 75°C. it is necessary to absorb

that the thermal capacities of
the compressed and expanded
hydrogen are the same. This
difference is insignificant and
has no effect on the general
problem.
It might be expected, then,
as the result of employing a
second regenerator coil of
sufficient length to produce a
heat interchange so complete
that the temperature would
not differ by more than one or
two degrees, that the gas
would enter the coil in the
liquid air chamber at a tem-
perature not far from — 170°
C. instead of at — 75°, as in
the earlier forms of the ap-
paratus. The liquid air would
then serve to cool the gas
only through 15° instead of
through 110°, and, when the
apparatus was once cooled
down, it should consume only
about one fifth of the liquid
air required to maintain the
older machine in action.
Though it is practically
impossible to obtain accurate
figures for the quantity of
liquid air used in an experi-
ment, I am satisfied that the
results which I had predicted
were fully realized in the ap-
paratus which I next con-
structed.
The form of the liquefier
is shown in fig. 6. It is prac-
tically identical with that last
described, only the carbonic
acid cooling chamber is replaced by the regenerator coil Z, and con-
sequently the position of the escape pipe G is changed.
ATTAINMENT OF VERY LOW TEMPERATURES. 23
The hydrogen enters the apparatus from the compressor at a dis-
tributing cross piece below the gauge, as in the last model, and passes
first to the bottom of the regenerator coil Z. This consists of two
pipes of 3.2 mm. external and 2 mm. internal diameter, wound coaxially
to form a coil 300 mm. long and 100 mm. in diameter. The coil is
covered with a layer of flannel and fits tightly into a brass case com-
municating above with the top of the annular space F and at the
bottom with the escape pipe G. The upper end of the coil communi-
cates with the coil in the liquid air chamber B.
The structure of the remaining parts of the apparatus is renee
with that of the last model and needs no further description; though
there is a slight difference in the arrangement of the pipes f and G
and of the cocks ¢, V (and w), their uses are identical and a description
of the method of manipulation of either apparatus will serve for both.
Olszewski* has described a liquefier somewhat similar to mine,
though at the time at which his paper was published the apparatus had
not been tested. He states that it is possible to liquefy hydrogen by
cooling it to the temperature of liquid air boiling under normal pressure
before allowing it to enter the regenerator coil (D, figs. 4, 6). It
appears to me, however, that as the regenerator coil is of the same
dimension as in my machine, Olszewski’s apparatus will be found to be
considerably less efficient.
Before describing my latest researches on the liquefaction of hydro-
gen it will be convenient to consider the method of compressing the
hydrogen, and of manipulating the liquefier.
X. COMPRESSION OF THE HyDROGEN.
The Whitehead torpedo compressor, as employed in connection
with the Hampson air liquefier, cannot be used for the compression of
hydrogen without modification. In the usual form of this machine the
packings of the pistons in both cylinders consist of cup-fibers carried
on the ends of the pistons and moving with them. In fig. 7, A, the low
pressure cylinder is shown in section. Air is drawn into the cylinder
through the valve a and expelled through the valve D; c is the piston,
which carries the cup fiber d, and is actuated by means of the connect-
ing rod e. The piston and cross head f are one solid piece of metal.
It will easily be seen that when gas is being compressed the contact
between the edge of the cup-fiber and the walls of the cylinder is perfect,
but that when gas is being drawn into the cylinder, the pressure in it
falls below that of the atmosphere, and there is a tendency for air to
enter it between the metal and the fiber. The extent to which this
would take place would be considerably increased if the cross head
became slightly worn and acquired a little side play.

24 ATTAINMENT OF VERY LOW TEMPERATURES.
In some of my earlier experiments I was considerably troubled by
the presence of impurities in the hydrogen, and at last traced the trouble
to this source. For some time I managed to get over my difficulties by
replacing the low pressure cup-fiber each time I compressed hydrogen,
but as this proved troublesome and unsatisfactory I resolved to modify
the low pressure cylinder so as to completely eliminate all chance of
further trouble.
Fic. 7.—Hydrogen compressor.
The alterations were carried out by Brin’s Oxygen Company. The
new arrangement of the cylinder is shown in fig. 7, B. The length of
the cylinder and of the studs which keep the cylinder cover in place
was increased by 87 mm., the length of the stroke, and a second piston

cylinder so that the space mm filled with water automatically from the
tank in which the cylin-
der was immersed. If
now the cup-fiber dd
fitted the cylinder badly, ,
only water could be
drawn into the latter
during the compression
of the gas.
The whole arrange-
ment for the compres-
sion and circulation of
the hydrogen is shown
in fig. 8. The hydro-
gen is conveyed from the
gasometer, which is not
shown in the figure, by
a pipe CC, which com-
municates through a
stopcock and connecting
pipe with the low-pres-
sure intake of the com-
pressor A. The lique-
fying apparatus I have
described was designed
to work with about ten
cubic meters of gas per
hour. To deliver this
quantity of gas the com-
pressor must run at 360
revolutions per minute,
and requires about seven
horse-power to drive it.

26 ATTAINMENT OF VERY LOW TEMPERATURES.
The hydrogen is compressed in two stages, as described on page
23, and first enters the water separator D where the lubrication water
is separated and discharged. The pipe from the cylinder D enters the
collecting chamber P; the water runs into the tank Q, while the gas
returns to the supply pipe C. The collecting chamber is shown in detail
in fig. 9.
The compressed gas, which now contains only a trace of moisture,
passes next through the cylinder EF containing solid caustic potash, on
its way to the liquefier K, which in the diagram is of the type de-
scribed on pages 18-20. After undergoing compression, and partial
liquefaction, the remaining gas returns by way of the pipe L to the
distributing chamber P, and thence into the pipe C. Should the
pressure rise suddenly through the blocking of the expansion valve,
the cock + can be opened and some of the gas allowed to escape through
a pipe which enters the supply pipe C through a small cock N. The
connecting pipe S, which is of rubber, serves to prevent any waste
through the escape of the hydrogen which passes out of the spiral
opening at the bottom of the vacuum vessel H (figs. 5 or 6), when
the liquid hydrogen runs into the receiving vessel (p. 20).
The operation of cooling down the liquefier has been described on
page 19, and need not be dealt with again here. The next step in the
operation was to remove the air from the compressor and purifying
cylinders, and this was usually accomplished by starting the com-
pressor two or three times, so as to take three or four cubic feet of gas
into it on each occasion, and then allowing the compressed hydrogen
to escape by opening a cock at the bottom of the potash purifier D.
Later it was found to be much more effective to allow the hydrogen
to pass completely through the apparatus and to escape at the ex-
pansion valve. In this case, the “ washing out” of the apparatus had
to be completed before the cooling down was commenced.
After washing out the apparatus the motor was again started and
the pressure was allowed to rise.
Meanwhile the cap and the tap V (see page 20, fig. 5) had been re-
moved from the bottom of the vacuum vessel H, and the liquid air
was allowed to drain out of it. The collecting vessel K was now
placed inside the tube L (figs. 4 or 6), and the latter was placed in
position as shown in the figure. The connection between the tube L
and the brass tube h, which formed part of the gland p, was made by
means of a rubber sleeve s, secured to both by means of a tube of
copper wire. When the sleeve was in position gas could only escape
from the space within the tube L through the cock 7, so that when the
latter was closed the liquid which formed in H could not flow into K.
When, however, the cock r was opened, liquid and gas could flow
from H into K, the gas passing through the cock r and the tube S

(figs. 4, 6, 8) to the main hydrogen supply pipe. The cock r was not
opened till the liquefaction of the hydrogen had commenced.
The tube L was usually surrounded either by a large vacuum
vessel or by three concentric glass shades, spaced apart with asbestos
mixed with a little pentoxide of phosphorus to absorb moisture from
the surrounding air. This arrangement prevented the deposition of
moisture on the walls of the tube L and enabled one to see what was
taking place inside.
When the pressure in the apparatus had risen to 150 atmospheres
the expansion valve was slowly opened and for a few moments the
hydrogen was allowed to escape from the circulation system, either by
bubbling through the water in the tank Q, fig. 8, or by opening the
cock O’ (fig. 9). When sufficient hydrogen had been allowed to
escape, and the apparatus was considered to be free from air, the cock
O’ (fig. 9), was closed, the cock O was opened and the hydrogen was
allowed to circulate through the system.
Shortly after commencing the expansion a small quantity of solid
impurity always separated in the bottom of the vacuum-vessel H (figs.
4, 6). It is noteworthy that the solid impurity never blocked the coil,
though it is probable that the latter was cooled to below the critical
point of hydrogen, but seemed to encrust the valve at the point at
which the expansion took place. Hannay* pointed out some years ago
that gases under high pressure, particularly in the neighborhood of
their critical points, were able to hold solids in solution ; considering the
complete continuity of the liquid and gaseous states of matter this is
hardly remarkable. To this phenomenon, which is allied to that of
retrograde condensation in the case of mixed gases, is due the fact that
the coils are never blocked by the presence of impurities, which at the
temperatures to which the gas is cooled should behave as non-volatile
solids, but which are dissolved by the compressed gas in the coil.
When the liquefier is working well it should require about half an
hour from the time of commencing operations to fill a receiving vessel
(K, figs. 4, 6) holding about half a liter. When once liquid hydrogen
is formed, and the cock r is opened, the liquid falls in large drops from
the nozzle of the vessel H. The liquid is usually slightly milky at first,
but the solid impurity soon settles to the bottom of the receiving vessel,
leaving the liquid clear.
When the receiving vessel is full the tube L can be lowered, and
the receiving vessel drawn out of it by means of a wire attached to it.
The receiving vessel is at once plugged with wool and placed inside a
second vessel containing liquid air.
In machines which required solid carbonic acid about four kilos of
that substance was required at each experiment, together with about

eight liters of liquid air. With these quantities the apparatus could
be run for about thirty minutes. With the apparatus having the second
regenerator coil, which did not require carbonic acid, five liters of liquid
air fully sufficed to cool the apparatus in the first place and to cool the
hydrogen during a run of more than twice the duration of the former
experiments.

nected by means of a piece of wide rubber tube with a brass tube of
similar diameter which dips about 50 cm. below the surface of the
water in a tank Q, fig. 8. The tube a is of glass, joined by means of
a socket with the cylinder P, and by a cap with the pipe through
which water is discharged from the water separator D, fig. 8. By
means of this arrangement the gas discharged together with the water
is saved. The pipe 7 is connected by means of a crosspiece with the
body of the apparatus and with the two cocks O and O’.. The cock O

communicates directly with the pipe C leading from the gasometer to
the compressor, and through it the hydrogen which returns from the
liquefier through the tube G, figs. 3, 4, 6, L fig. 8 and a fig. 9, can
be returned to the circulation system. The hydrogen which escapes
from the liquefier when the expansion is first commenced, is allowed
to escape through the cock O’, which is closed before the cock O is
opened. The pipe 7 serves not only to discharge the water delivered
through a, but also as a safety valve.
XII. THE PREPARATION OF THE HYDROGEN.
In my earlier experiments I prepared the hydrogen by the action of
dilute (25 percent) sulphuric acid on commercial zinc, contained in a
beer barrel, which had received several coats of enamel paint. Since,
however, it appeared that the gas suffered both loss and contamination
by diffusion through the walls of the barrel, I replaced it by a lead
vessel. The apparatus for generating the hydrogen is shown in fig. 10.
The vessel A, which was 500 mm. high and 300 mm. in diameter,
was made of sheet lead, “ burnt” at the junctions in the oxy-hydrogen
blow-pipe. At the commencement of each operation it usually con-
tained about fifteen kilograms of pure granulated zinc. Dilute sul-
phuric acid containing little copper sulphate was run into 4 in a steady
stream from the reservoir B, and as the zinc sulphate solution accumu-
lated it was run off through the stop-cock E. The hydrogen could
either be allowed to escape through the pipe C, which was plunged into
a deep vessel filled with water, and acted as a safety valve, or to pass
along the pipe D into the purifying towers F, FP’.
The towers F, F’, F” were filled with broken pumice, which was
kept wet by means of solutions of the reagents contained in the reser-
voirs G, G’. The first of these, which supplied the first two towers,
contained an acid solution of chromic acid, the second contained silver
nitrate solution, which served to remove arseniureted hydrogen from
the gas. The excess of the reagents flowed through inverted syphons,
which acted as gas traps, at the bottom of the towers, and was collected
in the vessels H, H’.
The gas finally passed through a solution of caustic potash contained
in the vessel K and entered the pipe leading to the gasometer through
thercock: Ls
If the gasometer already contained some hydrogen this gas could be
used to wash out the generating apparatus before introducing the fresh
quantity of gas. This could easily be done by first lowering the reser-
voir J, so as to empty the vessel K, and thus raising the tube C till the
gas bubbled through the water in which it was immersed, and
escaped.

XIII. THE GASOMETER.
The gasometer in use at University College, London, is of the
simple type shown in fig. 11, A. It consists of two cylindrical tanks,
one enclosing the other. The outer tank is 2,000 cm. high and 1,500
cm. in diameter, the inner one is 1,800 cm. high and 1,450 cm. in

diameter. The outer tank is filled with water to just above the level
of the top of the nner tank. The supply pipe passes through the center
of the gasometer, and opens inside a small dome in the top of the inner
tank. This enables practically the whole of the gas to be easily ex-
pelled from the gasometer.

When it was first placed in position the water in the gasometer was

means of a piece of composition gas pipe. The operation of saturating
the water occupied nearly a week; it was not, however, necessary to
repeat it as the gasometer always contained hydrogen.
The pressure inside the gasometer was equivalent to about 500 mm.

Though for financial reasons I was obliged to content myself with

a gasometer of the type I have described, there is a considerable
advantage in one of the kind shown in fig. 11, B. Such a gasometer is
in use in connection with the liquefaction plant which I designed for
Professor Auschutz of Bonn. Gasometers of this type are used for the
storage of acetylene.
XIV. CoNcLUSION oF Part I.
I have so far succeeded in designing an apparatus by means of
which I can at a comparatively small cost produce quantities of liquid
hydrogen sufficient for experimental purposes. I have usually ob-
tained half a liter as a maximum quantity, as it has always been
sufficient for the experiments I have had in hand.
I am at present engaged in designing an apparatus in which the
liquid hydrogen will be produced inside a metal chamber, and will be
drawn off through a cock. The elimination of the glass vacuum
vessel presents obvious advantages. At the same time I am investi-
gating the conditions most favorable to effective heat interchange in
the regenerator coil D, figs. 4, 6, of the apparatus. The dimensions
of the coils (p. 16) in the machines I have already experimented with
has always been one quarter of the size of the coil of the Hampson air
liquefier, the temperature gradient being in one case 50° and in the
other 200°. The results of my experiments appear to indicate that
these dimensions are too small, for the reason that the heat interchange
is a function not only of the conductivity of the metal of which the
coils are constructed, but also of certain properties of the gas. Fur-
ther, it appears probable that the spacing of the coils will have a con-
siderable influence on the efficiency of the apparatus, and that for
hydrogen, which has a low viscosity, the coils should be closer together
than in a machine which is designed to liquefy air.
In conclusion I wish to express my indebtedness to the Smithsonian
Institution for the assistance it has given me in carrying out these
investigations.

INTRODUCTION,
The present work is based upon Osten Sacken’s Catalogue of
North America Diptera, second edition, published in 1878.* All the
references of that work are embodied in this, with only such changes
as later studies seem to require.
Still, the great amount of work which has been done on North
American Diptera within the quarter of a century has largely changed
the face of the subject. Hence the reader will probably observe,
especially at first, more of contrast than resemblance. The number
of species has doubled; the number of references to previously known
species has almost doubled; several families have been monographed
or revised, with more or less change of nomenclature ; along with this
has gone the publication of a multitude of smaller papers, touching
every family but one, and the larger part of the genera. Under these
conditions it is inevitable that great changes should appear in the new
catalogue. It is the more necessary that I should acknowledge my
obligation, which is far greater than appears on the surface.
Faunal limits.—These, as in the former catalogue, include all of
North America, in the widest sense, taking in Panama on the South
and Greenland and the Aleutian Islands on the North. The West
Indies are included, even down to Trinidad, adjoining Venezuela.
There is no place to draw a line between the islands. The Bermudas
and the Hawaiian Islands are not included.
Scope.—To give the most information consistent with the limits
of space has been the object. All references to a species, if in any
way descriptive or useful, have been inserted if found. The only
known exceptions are in those species like the Hessian fly and house-
fly, where the references are so numerous that a selection of the more
important articles is necessary. Another exception is uniformly made
of articles in non-scientific journals; these are only mentioned when
of importance in tracing the history of a species.

Professor J. H. Comstock extended courtesies when I was visiting
Cornell. In his department I examined a considerable collection of
Diptera determined by Osten Sacken and Williston, also some inter-
esting literature. In the Cornell University library I found “ Silli-
man’s Journal.”’
Mr. Samuel Henshaw assisted me very kindly when I examined
some families in the Loew-Osten Sacken collection at Harvard Uni-
versity.
Dr. Garry de N. Hough gave me some unpublished notes, and a
large number of Diptera.
Mr. O. A. Johannsen, of Cornell University, revised the classifica-
tion of the Chironomidz for me, greatly improving my work on that
family.
Mr. Hugo Kahl gave me unpublished notes of his own; he also
gave me minute directions about some points to look up in the Loew-
Osten Sacken collection, the outcome of which gave me a very high
opinion of Mr. Kahl’s acuteness in systematic work, and revealed some
peculiar errors of Loew in describing two or three species.

V. L. Kelloge and “G=V2 Piper, 1am mdebted for? referenceseato
literature.
Mr. A. L. Melander gave me great assistance in the Empidide. I
have followed his advice quite uniformly in regard to nomenclature
and synonymy in that family.
I have availed myself of Dr. Coloman Kertész’s great work, “ Cata-
logus Diptercrum,’ of which two volumes have reached me, only to
the extent of adopting the generic distribution of the Cecidomyide,
and of picking up one species—Culex penafielt Will—which I had not
found before. My work was almost completed when the first volume
of Kertész came out.
To all the gentlemen named, I extend my sincere thanks.

Note.—Bigot’s main work, as will be seen from the tables above, is in the
form of a long series of articles in the Annales Soc. ent. France (quoted herein
merely as “ Annales”), interspersed chronologically with fragments in the Bul-
letin of the same society. Owing to Bigot’s peculiar, complicated and incon-
sistent system of numbering his contributions, it has been almost impossible for
12 CATALOGUE OF NORTH AMERICAN DIPTERA.
me to find them all, but I believe I have succeeded. I have seen no correct colla-
tion. Sometimes his Roman numerals stop and remain the same for several
papers, then again the numbering in “parts” becomes stationary while the other
goes on, and in two cases two papers have both the same (xxxvu, part 29, and
XE paciesa))s
In the Bulletin the confusion is worse confounded. This publication appears
tc have been for some time regularly published in two forms, one numbered in
Arabic, and the other differently paged in Roman. I am unable to decipher all
the peculiarities of this, but am obliged to refer partly to one, partly to the other,
and occasionally to separates, as my copies run, or as I find indications in the
references of others. I possess all the papers of the Annales series, and all but
two small ones of the Bulletin series; but the accumulation was the work of ten
years.
The work of Bigot should not be underestimated. He had a fine collection,
atid his types are now the property of Mr. G. H. Verrall. It is only a question of
time until they will be elucidated; in fact, this has already been done for the
Calyptrate (excl. of Anthomyide) by Brauer, and for the Pupipara by Speiser.
As the descriptions stand, it is often impossible to determine the species from
them alone. It is not unlikely that some of them have been assigned to synonymy
too hastily.

The number on Notacantha contains Cynipimorpha bilimeki n. g. et sp.
and Myxosargus fasciatus n. sp., from Mexico. The last number, on the
dipterous larve, is a great work. The numbers on classification represent
extensive research, and the system of Brauer seems to be widely accepted
in Europe at present; but I agree with Osten Sacken that classification is
not the field in which Brauer has done his best work.

the characters used for generic definition are often of less than specific
value. Nevertheless it is indispensable to the student of these families. It
is referred to as “ Zweifl. d. Kaiserl. Mus.”

This massive work contains an original systematic arrangement of all
the Calyptrate and part of the Acalyptrate Muscide. About eighty new
North American species are described. Many of the genera, after being
ignored for half a century, have of late been adopted and newly defined,
especially in Tachinide. The work is intrinsically valuable, and for its
time wonderful. The characters now used for separating the genera of
Tachinide were mostly introduced in this volume. It is very rare and
expensive.

State of New York. Made to the State Agricultural Society, pursuant to
an appropriation for this purpose from the Legislature of the State.
Albany; 1856. With 4 plates.
Before the publication of the Second Report, the first had been distributed
under the title of First Report, etc.; 1855. This work contains 21 new
American Diptera.
Third, fourth and fifth Reports on the Noxious, Beneficial and other Insects
of the State of New York, made to the State Agricultural Society, pur-
suant to an annual appropriation for this purpose from the Legislature of
the State. Albany; 1850. With four plates and many wood-cuts.
Cuterebra cmasculator n. sp. and several Cecidomyiz.
Sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth Reports, etc., etc. Albany, 1865. With four
plates and several wood-cuts.
Contains a new edition of the papers on Cecid. tritici and destructor.
All these reports appeared successively in the Transactions of the N. Y.
State Agricultural Society, and were collected and issued afterwards as
separate volumes: Volume 1, containing Reports 1 and 2; Vol. 1, Reports
3-5; Vol. 11, Reports 6-9. Each volume has a title-page, as given above,
and a complete index of the contents. In the first and third volumes the
pagination runs through the whole volume; in the second volume, a new
pagination begins with every report, but at the same time, the species suc-
cessively discussed are numbered and these numbers run through the whole
volume. For this reason, in quoting the second volume, I had to give the
number of the species referred to, while in quoting the other two volumes,
I give the page—Dr. Fitch’s following Reports, which I have seen up to
the 12th (1867), do not contain any new species of N. A. Diptera.
Note.—The above account of Fitch’s writings is quoted bodily from
Osten Sacken’s Catalogue. It remains to add that the Reports were -con-
tinued to 1872. Lintner, in his First N. Y. Report, 1882, pp. 291-325, gives
a fuller account of the writings of Fitch. As I have copied all of Osten
Sacken’s references, I necessarily quote his editions, although the others
were often earlier.
Trupanea apivora (syn. Promachus fitchii) is inadvertently omitted
above. It is described in the oth Report.

Harris, Thaddeus W.
“ Catalogue of the Insects of Massachusetts. In Prof. Hitchcock’s Report on
the Geology, Botany and Zoology of Massachusetts.
Professor Hitchcock’s Report had two editions; in the first (1833), Dr.
Harris mentioned only the generic names of the insects, adding the number
of species belonging to each genus. In the second edition (1835), the
specific names are also given; many of them are mere collection names,
never having been published.

This set contains an immense amount of material from North America,
especially the larger flies of the southern regions. I give the dates of
actual publication according to Hagen, although I observe that they do not
agree exactly with Osten Sacken, nor with those penciled on my own set.
The nominal date of publication was one year earlier, except with the
first, second and eighth numbers. The work was also published separately,
with different pagination, and this was used by Osten Sacken in his Cata-
logue; it is therefore continued by me. The parts without exception are
indexed, so that any difficulty about the pages will readily be overcome.

CATALOGUE OF NORTH AMERICAN DIPTERA. 67
Many new species, mostly described in a very brief and unsatisfactory
manner.
On Some Insects of Nova Scotia and Canada. Canadian Entomologist, m1,
TAUsHOCt, 167.5:
A short list of Diptera occurring in Nova Scotia; no new species.
In the appendix to “ The Naturalist in Vancouver Island and British Colum-
bia,” by J. K. Lord (London, 1866, 2 vols.), Walker described four new
species of Diptera from those regions—Culex pinguis, Laphria columbica,
Cuterebra approximata and Eurygaster septentrionalis.
Note.—Walker’s descriptions are notoriously bad. Osten Sacken, Cata-
logue, 1878, preface, p. xvi, has enlarged a little upon this subject. It was
the policy of Osten Sacken and Loew not to adopt Walker’s names unless,
as is very rarely the case, the description contains some positive mark of
identification. In their view, it was preferable to describe as a new species
in doubtful cases. Some recent American workers have followed a differ-
ent principle, and recognized Walker’s species on mere preponderance of
evidence; this I take it is especially true of Mr. Coquillett. It is desirable
that each student of the order examine the descriptions for himself, and
form his own conclusions as to the recognizability of any particular one.
Furthermore, it is very desirable, in case that one of these specific names be
resurrected, that the species be redescribed at the same time; otherwise in
most cases other entomologists will be completely in the dark as to the
species referred to, and confusion will be increased. This pending a fuller
knowledge of the type, which must some time be arrived at.

Diptera of that entomologist are redescribed; the original descriptions are
also quoted in full. Another valuable feature is the redescription of a large
number of Say’s species, from material set on by Say himself, presumably
typical in most cases. Wiedemann changed some of the specific names of

these; where there seemed to be no valid reason for the alteration, I have
followed Say in nomenclature. In most cases of redescription, I omit the
locality, as it is the same as in Say’s description.

CATALOGUE OF NORTH AMERICAN DIPTERA. 75
Anatomy of Diptera, bibliography, table of families, definition of each
family, and table of North American genera for each family except
Tachinide and Dexiide. A few generic names are altered, or new ones
proposed, on account of preoccupation. I have omitted all references to
this work, except where names are changed, because I assume that all
workers with Diptera are familiar with it. To the beginner it is indis-
pensable, and to the advanced worker a great convenience.

Note.—An admirable feature of Williston’s work, which does not show
fairly in the above list, is the attention he has given to identifying and
redescribing the species of other writers. In all his longer papers this is
a prominent part, frequently occupying as much space as the new descrip-
tions, and requiring more time than they in preparation.

Note.—The controversy between Osten Sacken and Bergroth as to the
propriety of displacing the name Amalopis for Tricyphona will be found
in the following papers:

In my opinion Osten Sacken makes out a good case for the retention of
Amalopts.

Bercrotu, Ent. Tidskr., 1x, 140, 1888, asserts that this genus is not suff-
ciently distinct from Tipula, and can at best be regarded as a subgenus.
The acceptance of this view would make rubiginosa preoccupied; he
therefore proposes to change its name to grandis.

Note.—Mr. Coquillett has founded a new family upon this species, which
he calls Stenoxenide. As but a single female specimen with the antenne
broken off has as yet come to light, and it is admittedly related to Cera-
topogon, it would seem decidedly premature to recognize this family.

placing the species here.
; CwiIgielD A:
The discovery that mosquitoes convey malaria, yellow fever, filariasis, and
possibly still other diseases, from one human being to another, deserves to rank
with the greatest achievements of science. The immediate result, very naturally,
has been an immense increase of interest in this family of Diptera, so that new

work is at present being published very rapidly. Theobald’s Monograph, noticed
below, gives a bibliography up to Feb., 1903, including early articles on the rela-
tion of mosquitoes to malaria. I enumerate a few important publications.
On Malaria, etc.
Riley, Amer. Nat., xvi, 549, May, 1883, mentions the theory of Dr. A. Kink, Co-
lumbia University, that mosquitoes cause malaria.

the systematic part is mainly an abridgement of the following.
Theobald, A Monograph of the Culicide. Printed by the British Museum, 1901-3.
Three volumes, with many figures and maps, and a fourth volume of plates,
mostly colored. Contains a vast amount of information on distribution, habits
in larval and mature stages, etc. The systematic part is based on the collections
in the British Museum.

CECIDOMYID/.
There are peculiar difficulties in the task of properly representing this family
in the present Catalogue. On account of the fact that many species make galls
on plants, we encounter here a mixture of botanical and zoological science, which
has tended to separate the study of the Cecidomyide from that of the other Dip-
tera. Only those who have made a special study of the family are at all informed
about it. Unfortunately, not one of the present generation of American ento-
mologists has given this special attention.
To make matters ten-fold worse, the European specialists in Cecidomyide
152 CATALOGUE OF NORTH AMERICAN DIPTERA.
have come to a practical unanimity in accepting certain principles of nomen-
clature which radically change the generic names used by Osten Sacken, who
followed Loew. The change hinges on the application of the name Cecidomyia
(disregarding for the time being the new genera which have naturally come into
existence), and will be found fully discussed in the following papers:
Karscu, Revision der Gallmiicken, Minster, 1878, 10-20.
OsTEN SACKEN, Catalogue, 215, note I, 1878.
RUBSAAMEN, Berl. Ent. Zeitsch., XXXVII, 324-327, 1802.
KreFrFerR, Annales Soc. Ent. France, 1900, 4306.
OsTEN SACKEN, Ent. Mo. Mag., 1901, 40-43.
The practical effect of the changes adopted by Karsch, Rttbsaamen and Kieffer
is to apply. the name Cecidomyia to the Diplosis of Osten Sacken’s Catalogue,
and to divide up his Cecidomyia between Rhabdophaga and Dasyneura. As
nearly all the species in the family were referred to Cecidomyia and Diplosis in
Osten Sacken’s Catalogue, the adoption of the changed nomenclature will leave
few members of the family in the same genera to which Osten Sacken referred
them.
Realizing the immense practical disadvantage of such an overturning of names,
I should have been well content to let the problems of nomenclature lie in abey-
ance; but they have been already threshed out in Europe, and the conclusions
reached and put in use there cannot be ignored.
After much consideration, I can find no better course to follow than to adopt
the generic distribution of Kertész, in his Catalogus Dipterorum, vol. 1. Not
having much knowledge of the family myself, and not being able to consult an
American authority on it, I have carried out this plan. I take occasion to re-
mark, however, that Osten Sacken thoroughly disapproves of the changes, and
has given, in the last reference above, his reasons for his views.
Some of the species still included under Cecidomyia doubtless belong to other
established genera, but are not yet sufficiently described to allow of a positive
reference; in fact, many of the species need further study, and at best the present
scheme must be considerably modified by more thorough investigation. No
family of the Diptera offers greater inducements to a worker who will patiently
carry on the biological and systematic study of it conjointly.
The status of those names which have been applied to larve and galls anly, u
to pup, larve and galls, or even to galls alone, need not be settled at the present
time. I have placed all such names in a division by themselves. My opinion is
that when the adult is at last described, the same old specific name should be
used, unless impracticable, but that thenceforth the description of the adult should
be regarded as the real description of the species. Meanwhile, it is very con-
venient, and thoroughly in accord with the objects of nomenclature, that the pro-
visional name should stand.
A few species described since Kertész have been added, in harmony with his
general distribution.
Cross-references have not been thought necessary, considering the small size
of the family.
The European literature is voluminous; Kieffer gives over 800 references. His
Monographie des Cécidomyides d’Europe et d’Algerie, in Annales Soc. Ent.
France, 1900, 181-472, 30 plates, is indispensable to any student of the family.
I add here only a few references.

Note.—The only North American representative is the well-known “ Hes-
sian Fly,” so-called from the supposition that it was introduced from Eu-
rope along with the Hessian soldiers in the Revolution. It has uniformly
been referred to the genus Cecidomyia in the past by American writers.
The larva injures young wheat plants; it is found between the stalk and
the sheathing portion of one of the lower leaves.
The literature is very voluminous. Kertész, in his Catalogue, 1, 76,
gives three pages of references; Osborn, in Bull. 16, mentioned below,
gives a far more lengthy list. I give a few of the early references, paying
more attention to the newer publications, since the time of Osborn’s paper.
From the first, the articles are biological and economic in their scope. The
European references are omitted here.

ined the types at the request of Mr. Kahl, and as he expected, found one
female of a Pachygaster, and both the male and female of a species be-
longing to a different genus, the eyes of the male being separated. These
are all referred to in one way or another under the description of the
female, which consequently becomes useless to science.

Note to the Family Acanthomeride.—There exists no reason known to
me for maintaining the name Acanthomera against the apparently prior
name Pantophthalmus, the adoption of which would involve a change of
the family name to correspond. But I have not access to Thunberg’s work,
and it seems a very good rule to give the benefit of the doubt to current
names.

the types.

Loew, Mon. N. A. Dipt., vol. m, 1864 (in Smithsonian Miscellaneous Collec-
tions, No. 171), is a monograph which is still useful, although it must be
studied in connection with the later works. The earlier descriptions are
quoted and discussed in this monograph.
Bicot, Annales, 1890, 261, article with table of genera of the world.
Note—The arrangement in subfamilies, much of the synonymy, and
some notes, are the result of my own study of the family, which has
been a favorite with me for fourteen years.

there is an easy mark of distinction in the fore feet, sarotes having the
third joint much larger, broader and whiter. This illustrates what may
be done by examining types.

Coquillett, in Proc. Ent. Soc. Wash., v, 263, has distributed the species
according to his ideas. I have been guided mainly by Melander’s views,
communicated to me in letters.

PHORID/E.
BEcKER, Die Phoriden, in Abhandlungen d. K. K. Zool.-Bot. Ges., I, I~-100, 5
plates, 1901, is an admirable monograph of the European members of the
family.
Brues, Monograph of the N. A. Phoride, in Trans. Amer. Ent. Soc., xxix,
331-404, 5 plates, describes the genera of the world and all the N. A. species,
with a new generic arrangement. It is dated 1903, but really appeared in
January, 1904. This would exclude it from the present catalogue, which
closes with Jan. 1, 1904, but I deem it necessary to make an exception here,
in order to avoid having this part of the work out of date on publication.
There are full tables of genera and species, etc.; it is a very valuable work.
Osten SACKEN, Ent. Mo. Mag., sec. ser., XIII, 204, 1902, discusses the position
of this family.

Becker, Berl. Ent. Zeitsch., xi11, 1807, 93 (Prothecus Ronp.).
Note.—According to Mik, loc. cit., Rondani made an error of identi-
fication, and the species he named as the type is not auctus, but has an
acuminate third antennal joint. This antennal character is mentioned in
the definition, hence Prothecus could not be used for the present group,
in which the lack of a point on the third antennal joint is one of the
principal characteristics.

HovucuH, Proc. Boston Soc. Nat. Hist., xxrx, 77, refers to Prothecus, in

SYRPHIDZA:.
Wittiston, Synop. N. A. Syrphide. Bulletin of The United States National
“Museum, No. 31. Washington, 1886, xxx and 335 pages, with 12 plates.
The largest and most complete family monograph yet published on North
American Diptera.
VERRALL, British Flies. Syrphide, etc. Gurney and Jackson, London, 1901.
690 pages, portrait and many excellent text figures. Includes also in an
appendix of 121 pages a full catalogue and bibliography of the British rep-
resentatives of the three families described, which are the Platypezide, Pipun-
culide and Syrphide. This massive volume is an encyclopedia on the three
families indispensable to the advanced worker. Many of the British species”
and most of the genera occur also in America.
CHAGNON, G., Etudes Préliminaires sur les Syrphides de la Province de Que-
bec. Chicotini, Quebec, 1901, 75 pages. Originally published in parts in “Le
Naturaliste Canadien,” 1901. I quote the separate edition. It is a convenient
and useful compilation on the commoner species of that region.

Note.—I dissent from the conclusions of Osten Sacken and Verrall in
adopting Rondani’s name here. In the first reference above, Rondani says,
“Spec: typ: Musca pyrastri Lin.,” and mentions no other species. Hence
the proper procedure, in case the genus is illy conceived, is to revise its
definition, rather than to make its type the type of another genus. I here
use Lasiophthicus as if this had been done, exactly in the sense of Cata-
bomba.

Loew, Cent., v1, 47, 1865; in Centuries, vol. 1, p. 290, Loew proposes to

LACHINIDA
Note—The classification adopted follows closely that of Coquillett, Revision
of the Tachinide, Bulletin of Division of Entomology, Technical series, No. 7,
1897. This work seems to embody a far clearer and more consistent idea of
the genera than any other general work on the American species of the family.
It includes, however, only the fauna of the United States, and that no farther
than seen by the author. This has necessitated my adding a large number cf
420 CATALOGUE OF NORTH AMERICAN DIPTERA.
genera and species, which I have endeavored to distribute in accordance with
the classification in the work mentioned. I cannot hope to have made a perfect
success of this, considering the difficulty of the family.
The work of Brauer and Bergenstamm, Vorarbeiten zu einer Monographie
der Muscaria schizometopa, forming parts Iv, v and vr of the series called
Zweifliigler des Kaiserlichen Museums zu Wien, is an elaborate and extensive
work, characterized by a minute subdivision of the group into numerous so-
called families, sections, super-genera, and genera. Although it shows an im-
mense amount of patient and faithful study, it is vitiated by a failure to grasp
the natural divisions between groups of the same category. Hence it must be
used with caution, and much experience is necessary before one can judge of
its authoritativeness in a particular case. The table contains many illusory
characters, and the usefulness of the work is further marred by a succession of
addenda, modifying the system in numerous parts, and making it still more
difficult to follow.
The work of Townsend shows itself to have been powerfully influenced by
the one just mentioned; hence there is a serious confusion of genera, and in
some instances the same species is described several times under different gen-
era, or in the same genus. The worst instance of this will be found under
Myiophasia @nea. This was not the result of carelessness but of a too
narrow splitting up of genera and species, in the attempt to follow Brauer and
Bergenstamm. The specific descriptions of Townsend are conscientious and
faithful, and among the most recognizable of any in the family.
The extensive article by Van der Wulp on the Mexican and Central Ameri-
can fauna, published in vol. m of the Diptera in Biologia Centrali-americana,
goes to the other extreme in the matter of genera, and the large genera in it
are without exception heterogeneous collections, which can at present hardly
be placed consistently in the system here adopted.
The descriptions by Bigot are in every way objectionable, almost always re-
ferred to the wrong genus, and seldom containing the essential data. Most
fortunately, the types of nearly all the species have been examined by Brauer,
who has elucidated them in accordance with his system: in three articles in
Sitzungsberichten der Kaiserlichen Akademie der Wissenschaften (Mathemat-
ischen-Naturwissenschaftlichen Classe, Bd. cv, cvim and cvut). This makes it
possible to arrange them fairly well in the present work.
The following tables of genera may be consulted:
TowNSEND, Proc. Ent. Soc. Wash., 11, 92, 96; Trans. Amer. Ent. Soc.,
namem aie yls
VAN DER Wutp, Biologia, Dipt., 1, 5 and 41.
Coguittett, Revision Tach., 30; this is most important.
The synonymy adopted by Coquillett in his Revision has been followed’ rather
closely for the species included in that work, without giving credit in the ref-
erences.
To facilitate reference through the index, I mention the following cases where
the genus might not otherwise be found:
Argyrophylax rostrata Cog. has been placed in Siphosturmia.
Ceromasia Ronp. is a synonym of Masicera; but only chrysocephala and sonata
of Bigot have been placed there. His abbreviata, pictigaster, quadrivittata and
spinipes will be found in Hypostena, while his castanifrons has been referred to
Prospherysa.
Chetolyga is a synonym of Winthemia; but the species of Bigot will be
found under Evoritsta, Hypostena, Phorocera and Winthemaa.
CATALOGUE OF NORTH AMERICAN DIPTERA. 421
Dimorphomyia calliphoroides Bricor, Bull. Soc. Ent. France, 1885, has been
found on examination of the type to consist of the head of a Syrphid glued to
the body of a Muscid. See Brauer, Sitzungsbericht Kaiserl. Akad., cvl, 14.
We may say at least that it was admirably named!
Eggonia VAN vER WULP, mentioned by’ Brauer and Bergenstamm, Zweifi.
Kaiserl. Mus., v1, 104, lacks a specific name for the type, and must have been
a manuscript name on some of Van der Wulp’s material.
Eurigaster Maco. is a synonym of Evorista, but E. septentrionalis WALKER
will be found under Euphorocera claripennis.
Fabricia Desv. is a synonym of Echinomyia, but Bigot’s F. infumata will be
found under Archytas bicolor.
Loewia Eccer; the species of Townsend all fall under Myiophasia enca.
Lophosia setigena THomson has been placed under Clausicella.
Lydella doryphore Ritry will be found under Phorocera, although the genus
is a synonym of Evorista.
Melanosphora diabrotice SHIMER is a Celatoria.
Micropalpus is a synonym of Linnemyia, but some of the species are placed
under Epalpus and Cuphocera.
Oplisa albifacies Bicor is referred to Pseudodexia by Brauer, and O. nigri-
facies to Medina.
Pachycheta jarowchewskyi Portscuinsky, from Russian America, is listed
by B. and B. among the material in the Vienna Museum; but I have found no
other reference to it.
Phasia atripennis Say is referred to Nanthomelana, and jugatoria to Tricho-
poda penntpes.
Podotachina americana B. B. is referred to Tachina mella, and P. vibrissata
B. B. to Euphorocera claripennis.
Pseudogermaria georgie B. B. is referred to Distichona.
Ptilocera americana Maco. is referred to Phyto.
Pyrrosia ochracea Bicor is referred to strophasia.
Siphoniomyia melas Brcor is referred to Trichophora analis.
Thysanomyia inermis Bicot, mentioned by Johnson, Dipt. of Florida, may be
Blepharipeza inermis, but I am not certain.
The species of Tryphera described by Townsend all go in Polidea.
Viviana citrina Bicot will be found under Chetona longiseta; georgie in
Biomyia; and rufopygata in Leskia.
Wahlbergia is a synonym of Besscria, but Townsend’s atripennis is a Xantho-
melana.
Xysta didyma Loew is a Clytiomyia.

Note——Brauer and Bergenstamm published an extensive work in the same
year as Van der Wulp, 1891. I am unable to settle the question of actual pri-
ority; but as Van der Wulp allowed Brauer and Bergenstamm to use his types
as a matter of courtesy, and they attributed his genera to him, it would seem
unwise to disturb this arrangement.
The ideas of the authors named above differ widely as to the limits and
validity of genera; frequently they are hopelessly contradictory. The work of
Brauer and Bergenstamm is obviously of a preliminary character, undergoing
material change with each succeeding instalment, which makes it undesirable
to follow it for sequence of genera.
The differences between Tachinide and Dexiide are evanescent, and the pros-
pect is that the families will ultimately be combined, or new family characters
established. In the present work, most of the doubtful genera, if not in fact
all of them, will be found in the Tachinide.
The following notes may be grouped together, for convenience of reference:
‘Illigera elops WALKER is a Beskia.
Illigeria corythus WaLker is Xanthomelana atripennis.
Illigeria helymus WALKER is a Metacheta.
Megerlea rufocaudata Bicor goes in Sarcophilodes.
Oplisa albifacies Bicor is a Pseudodexria.
Oplisa nigrifacies Bicot; according to Brauer, Sitzungsbericht d. K. Akad.,
CVI, 32, the types include four species, referable to three genera.
Phorostoma appendiculata Bicor is a Myiomuima.

Note.—It appears from the article just mentioned that this European
species was first observed in New Jersey and Maryland, on cattle, in the
summer and fall of 1887, although the first reference in print was by
Lintner, supra, in 1888. Williston saw it from Pennsylvania in 1887 also.
The subsequent spread of the fly was traced by frequent references in
Insect Life, in the second and following volumes; the references may be
found in the general index of the periodical. Other references which I
have collected are mostly to brief notes; the principal ones I list.

Note.—Van der Wulp, and Meade following him, make a distinction
between Phorbia and Chortophila in that the former has the abdomen
narrow and depressed and in the latter it is cylindrical. Stein, however,
in Berl. Ent. Zeitsch., xLi1, 231, recognizes the equivalence of the two
names, although adopting Chortophila, the later.

fusion.

Note.—I do not agree with Mr. Coquillett in calling this a synonym of
fuscopunctata; the named specimens returned to me by Stein, through
Dr. Hough, are not the same species which Coquillett determined as
fuscopunctata for Dr. Nason, and sent by him to me. I should call
fuscopunctata unrecognizable.

Note.—The order followed is essentially that of the table in Williston’s
Manual, although Coquillett has pointed out some seeming defects in the rela-
tion of genera therein. The genera of this family are closely interwoven, and
mostly based on plastic characters; hence a slight difference in the emphasis
placed on one set of characters has the effect of throwing a large number of
species into other genera than they previously occupied. This change of
emphasis Mr. Coquillett seems to have adopted, as compared with Loew, who
established most of the genera; but as he has not published anything to justify
his new generic references in most cases, I have been slow to accept them. The
synonymy of species by Mr. Coquillett in Jour. N. Y. Ent. Soc., vii, 259-268,
seems to me to do a great injustice to Mr. Doane, whose species were very care-
fully and accurately worked out. From an examination of Doane’s material, I
am satisfied that Coquillett was wrong in all, or nearly all, of the assertions he
made regarding the synonymy of Doane’s species; this was shown in a rejoinder
published by Doane, op. cit., VII, 47.

Note.—In midsummer of t901 I found this species by hundreds on
foliage in one of the shady glens adjoining the campus of Cornell Uni-

thing to do with the skunk cabbage.

Loew, in Silliman’s Jour., oc. in N. A.; but it must be extremely rare,

Professor Leidy for some time previous to his death had in con-
templation the publication of a work upon Helminthology and
Parasitology. As is well known, for many years he was the
only American naturalist who devoted any considerable time to the
study of parasitology.
To students engaged in similar lines of investigation no apology
is needed for the present volume. The subject-matter which forms
the basis of the edition consists of verbal communications, short
papers, and elaborate memoirs which have appeared from time to
time (1845-1891) in the Proceedings and Journal of the Academy
of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia ; the Transactions of the American
Philosophical Society, the Smithsonian publications, and scientific
journals.
The material has been arranged serially as it appears from the
author’s pen; no attempt at classification could be made without
destroying the character of the work. It was a long time before
the editor could be induced to undertake the preparation of such a
publication; frequently he was tempted to place his pen aside,
knowing full well that Professor Leidy had very little sympathy for
compilations. The frequent and constant requests from investiga-
tors along similar lines of scientific research, however, for detailed
information of the work under consideration has induced him to
forego any personal feeling in the matter and allow the work to go
forward.
For the use of students the editor has appended a working bibli-
ography of Professor Leidy’s contributions to science. Although
care has been taken in its preparation, for any omission that may
be found the editor asks the indulgence of the reader.

RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND

DESCRIPTION OF A NEW GENUS AND SPECIES OF ENTOZOA.*
In the course of an investigation of the anatomical structure
of the terrestrial gasteropoda of the United States, I discovered a
microscopic entozoon inhabiting the fluid contained in the vessie
copulatrice or spermatheca of /Ve/ix albolabris, since which I have
found it to exist in two other species, Helix tridentata and Flelix
alternata, and I have no doubt of its existence in others, not yet
having had an opportunity of examining further. As there appears
to be no known genus in which this animal can be placed, I have
been necessitated to form the following :
Cryptobia.t+—Animal minute ; form exceedingly proteoid ; inter-
nal organization cellular or granular.
C. helicis.—Colourless ; form ordinarily elongate, ellipsoid, fusi-
form, or ovate ; caudated, caudz opposite, one longer than the other.
Internal granular structure consisting of two large cells and numerous
minute granules. ‘Total length from the 125th to the rooth of a
line. Habitat, the vessie copulatrice or spermatheca of /felzx albo-
labris, Helix tridentata, and Helix alternata.
The name of this genus is derived from xpuzzus, hidden, and fa,
to live. This singular entozoon in its general oppearauge and or-
* When not otherwise penal the extract is taken on the Proceedings of
the Academy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia.

ganization appears to be intermediate between Cevcaria seminis and
Filaria. Its varied form and movements are curious to observe ; at
one moment globular, then oval, ovate, fusiform, sigmoid, crescentic,
&c., it appears as if it would outvie the kaleidoscope in its changes.
The motions are vibratile, rotary, with a lateral progression, or
whirling in circles like the insect Gyvinus.
Cryptobia helicis might be confounded with the spermatozoa of the
animal in which they are parasitic, on account of the organ in which
they are found being connected with the generative apparatus, and
its supposed use as a spermatheca, but they may be readily dis-
tinguished ; the spermatozoa of Helices generally having either a
uniform sigmoid or a beaded body, with an enormous proportionate
length of tail, and a slow, vibratile motion. It may be well to men-
tion that C. Aelicis does not exist in the collapsed state of the gen-
erative organs.
[Some of the principal forms of the animal are represented in a
sketch. ]
[October, 1846. No. 11, See Bibliography. |
Dr. Leidy stated that he had lately detected the existence of an
Entozoon in the superficial part of the extensor muscles of the thigh
ef a hog. ‘The Entozoon is a minute, coiled worm, contained in a
cyst. The cysts are numerous, white, oval in shape, of a gritty
nature, and between the 30th and 4oth of an inch in length.
The Entozoon he supposes to be the 77ichina spiralis, heretofore
considered as peculiar to the human species. He could perceive no
distinction between it and the specimens of 7. spiva/is which he had
met with in several human subjects in the dissecting-rooms, where
it has also been observed by others, since the attention of the scien-
tific public has been directed to it by Mr. Hilton and Professor
Owen.
Dr. Leidy also exhibited a singular knotted mass of living Gordii
or hair worms, with numerous long strings of ova attached, which
had been taken a few days since from one of the hydrants of this
city.
[June, 1847. No. 17. See Bibliography. |
Dr. Leidy exhibited a drawing of an Entozoon (a species of Dis-
toma) found in the pericardium of Helix alternata. ‘This Entozoon
is half a line in length by a quarter of a line in breadth, a large com-
parative size, when its situation is considered, being equal to that

of the ventricle of the heart. The pericardium was perfectly trans-
parent, and presented no appearance of cicatrix, or marks of exter-
nal communication. Dr. Leidy then read the following descrip-
tion of
Distoma helicts.—Oval, flattened, white in colour ; oral disk large,
round, marked by radiating lines: posterior disk central, about the
size of that of the mouth, radiate, with a dark spot in the center.
Intestinal canal commencing by a fusiform cesophagus, the apex of
which joins a round stomachal cavity, from which passes off on each
side a convoluted intestinum, which proceeds to the posterior ex-
tremity of the body. About half way between the central disk and
the posterior extremity of the animal, I indistinctly observed what
I presumed to be the generative orifice.
[August, 1847. No. 20. See Bibliography. |
Dr. Leidy requested permission, which was given, to change the
name of a new genus of Entozoa, described by him in Vol. 3, No. 5,
of the Proceedings, from that of Cryftobia to Cryptoicus, the former
name having been preoccupied.
DESCRIPTION AND ANATOMY OF A NEW AND CURIOUS SUBGENUS
OF PLANARIA.
In October, 1840, Prof. S. S. Haldeman published a description
of an animal under the name of /Vanaria gracilis.* Upon examina-
tion I detected such a remarkable peculiarity in the digestive appa-
ratus as led me to investigate its anatomy in detail, and to form
for it a separate subgenus, characterized as follows:
Phagocata, oblonga, plano-convexa, nuda, contractilis, muscosa,
antica auricularia. Aperture duz, ventrales, ad os et generationem
pertinens. Proboscides multe.
P. gracilis, nigricans, lateribus parallelis, postero acuto abrupte,
plerumque antico recto; oculis duobus. Long., 9 lin.; lat., 1 lin.
Habitat in fontis Pennsylvaniz.
Description.—Oblong, limaceform, naked, convex superiorly, flat
inferiorly very contractile; sides ordinarily parallel, convex when the
animal is in acontracted state, convergent anteriorly when elongated ;
anterior extremity with a lateral triangular auricular appendage,

straight in front, by contraction becoming convex or concave ; pos-
terior extremity abruptly pointed; ocelli two, anterior, composed
of an oblong, semi-transparent (nervous?) mass with an intensely
black dot of pigmentum at the internal posterior part; ventral
apertures two; oral aperture a little less than one-third the length
of the body from the posterior extremity, and very dilatable; gen-
erative aperture half-way between the oral aperture and posterior
extremity. Colour black or iron gray, and in some younger speci-
mens latericeous. ‘his animal I have only found in abundance in
the neighborhood of Professor Haldeman’s residence, near Colum-
bia, Pa. Ina spring in front of his house, thousands of them may
be seen gliding along the bottom ; some of them occasionally creep
up the sides to the surface of the water, turn upon their back, and
by making the ventral surface concave, float about in the manner
of the Limniadee. It appears to be carnivorous in habit, or at least
it attaches itself to animal matter, dead or living, in preference to
vegetable matter. When irritated it throws out a considerable
quantity of very tenacious mucus.
In structure it appears to be intermediate between the entozoic
Distomata and the annulose Hirudine. I could not detect any trace
of annulation, but I think that this alone would hardly be sufficient
to place it lower than the latter animals, because, in a closely allied
animal, the Gordius aqguaticus, although there is no annulation in the
perfect animal, yet in the embryo state I find it to exist.
The whole animal is composed of a delicate granular structure ;
the only approach to muscular fibre is in the longitudinal striation
of the integument rendered more distinct by the pigmentum nigrum,
a radiated appearance around the oral orifice, and a faint transverse
and longitudinal arrangement of the granules entering the composi-
tion of the proboscides, seen more or less distinctly in the continued
movement of these organs when slightly compressed beneath the
microscope.
The digestive cavity presents the same dendritic arrangement as
in Planarize generally,* but instead of possessing a single sucker or
proboscis, the full-grown animal has not less than twenty-three ;
varying, however, in this respect from three upwards, according to
the age of the animal. One of these proboscides joins the digestive
cavity at the posterior part of the anterior division, as usual; the
others join the remaining two divisions at their internal side in their
course backward. They are considerably longer but narrower than

in P. /actea,* and when not in use are closely packed together within
the animal, so that when the latter is placed beneath the microscope
and slightly compressed, they will be seen pressing upon one another
in such a manner that if one changes its position it will be instantly
occupied by another. Those which are formed last are smallest, but
they soon gain their full size.
When the animal feeds, the whole of them are protruded from the
oral orifice, the longest extending out full one-third the length of the
body. As they are all convergent to the same orifice, when fully
protruded the animal becomes puckered up and increased in breadth
at the expense of the length. In this state the anterior extremity
is erected and the posterior brought nearly to a right angle with it,
so that it looks as if sitting upon its prey apparently unconcerned,
with its proboscides, which writhe and twist about as if they were
totally distinct organisms.
If one of these animals be punctured or cut, one or more of the
proboscides will be immediately protruded as if they existed under
pressure, and will move about in all directions, appearing as if en-
tirely without the control of the animal; or if one of the animals be
crushed between two slips of glass, so that the proboscides will be
torn from their attachment, they move about involuntarily, always
in a line forwards or towards the mouth, which they do by contract-
ing the stomachal extremity towards the oral, the latter remaining
fixed. In this progressive course they constantly contract and di-
late ; the mouth opens and any matter in its vicinity rushes in, when
it is closed and the matter passes onwards, and by the alternate con-
traction and dilation of different parts of the same tube, it is thrown
backwards and forwards several times and finally violently expelled
at the torn extremity. When they have escaped from the ruptures
of the tegument produced by crushing, or when snipped off with a
pair of scissors whilst an animal is feeding, they will present the
same curious phenomena. In fact these curious independent move-
ments caused me at first to mistake the organ for viviparous young,
and it was not until I had frequently observed the animal feeding,
and examined its structure beneath the microscope, after having fed
them upon coloured food, that I was convinced of their true nature.
Excrementitious matter is expelled from the digestive cavity
through the same course by which the food enters.
Circulation.—There appears to be nothing peculiar about the
arrangement of the blood vessels, if such they be: the term being

applied to two semi-transparent lines passing along each side of the
ventral surface, and a third along the middle of the dorsal surface,
the three freely communicating with each other by transverse lines
and numerous smaller branches, the whole forming an extensive
reticulation upon the surface of the body. At the anterior part of
each ventral line I distinctly observed a dilatation to exist.
Generative apparatus.—As in all Planarize, the animal is androgy-
nous. ‘The penis is a bulbiform organ placed between the oral and
generative orifice, with its point directed toward the latter. The
point is straight, or contorted ; the bulbous portion is also change-
able, sometimes elongated, at others flattened or increased in breadth
at the expense of the length. The bulb shows through the thin
integument, and without close examination may be taken for a third
orifice. The penis is perforate, and has a dilated cavity within the
bulb. Immediately above the penis I indistinctly observed a some-
what lobated organ, which appeared to join the penis at its base by a
narrow portion. This is probably the testicle, forit was the only thing
I could discover in connection with the genitalia to correspond to it.
In two individuals only could I see part of the female organs.
This consisted in two sigmoid tubes or oviducts, which could be
traced from the generative orifice a short distance forward, one on
each side of the penis.
I could detect no traces of a nervous system.
The eyes, so called, have been previously described. It is still a
question with many, whether these, as well as the corresponding
deep black points existing in very many of the lower animals of the
invertebrate series, subserve the purpose of eyes; and some anato-
mists have even gone so far as to deny the sense of sight to the
comparatively perfect eye of many gasteropodous mollusca. The
experiments which are made to test the existence of this sense in
these organs for the most part are exceedingly fallacious, generally
being performed by concentrating the light upon them through a
lens. Insects, and even serpents and frogs, I find will frequently
bear the impression of a sudden glare of light produced in this way
without any inconvenience, at other times they will seek to avoid it,
but //elix albolabris will occasionally retract its tentacle when so dis-
turbed, and Phagocata will frequently raise its interior extremity and
move from the too great light. From their position, which is always
such as to be well exposed to the influence of the light, from their
structure, imperfect as it is in many cases, and their connection with
the nervous system when this exists, I am led to conclude that in
all cases they are organs of vision.

The general sensibility of /agocata is very considerable, that is,
it contracts with great readiness from the slightest disturbance. The
contraction has much the appearance of being involuntary and is
very like that of the medusze. When an individual is irritated at
any point, contraction commences there, and thence rapidly extends
throughout the animal, and the only appearance of volition is in the
effort to escape, but if the touch be too rude, apparently involuntary
contraction takes place suddenly and appears to destroy all power of
volition for the moment ; the animal, however, soon revives from this
state and glides off with its accustomed speed.
Some experiments which I performed upon Pagoca/a confirm the
statement that the Planarize are capable of repairing injuries. When
an individual is cut into two, both parts after a time become distinct
and perfect animals. Division carried to a greater extent in some
instances results in as many perfect animals as there are parts, but
generally I have found that when cut into more than three or four
pieces, the intermediate pieces are apt to die, and sometimes the
extremities do not survive.

DESCRIPTIONS OF TWO NEW SPECIES OF PLANARIA.
Planaria maculata.—Superiorly convex, faintly blackish or brown-
ish with irregular colourless macule; inferiorly flat, colourless ;
anteriorly trapezoidal ; posteriorly spatulate or oval; eyes two, an-
terior, proximate, composed of a large semi-transparent mass with
a reniform mass of pigmentum nigrum at the postero-internal part ;
oral aperture ventral, one-third the length of the body from the pos-
terior extremity ; proboscis largeand cylindrical. Length 214 lines ;
breadth % line. Found in moderate abundance, in the ditches below
the city, creeping upon the submerged stems of aquatic plants.
Subgenus. Pvostoma, Dugés. Mouth anterior and terminal.
Prostoma marginatum.—Blackish, narrow lanceolate, anteriorly
truncate ; marginate, margin delicately striate ; mouth large; pro-

boscis large and oblong ; eyes two, anterior, distant, each consisting
of two round masses of pigmentum nigrum in contact with each
other, and of which one is longer than the other ; generative orifice
one-fourth the length of the body from the posterior extremity.
Length 1 line. A single specimen found with the preceding; but
probably not rare, for, from its small size, it escaped my notice while
collecting some of the former, and it was not until I got home that I
detected its existence in the vessel of water containing the others.
The anatomy of P. maculata does not differ from that of Planaria
lactea as given by Dugés in the Annales des Sciences Naturelles. In
Prostoma marginatum the digestive cavity has not the dendritic ar-
rangement of Planaria, but merely consists of a large capacious sac
extending as far back as the posterior third of the body, and having
a ccecum upon each side of the proboscis. The penis has a yellow
colour and consists of a round granular mass, with a moderately
long and bent spiculum projecting from its posterior part. The
arrangement of the female apparatus I failed to trace.

From the opinion so frequently expressed that contagious diseases
and some others might have their origin and reproductive charac-
ter through the agency of cryptogamic spores, which, from their
niinuteness and lightness, are so easily conveyed from place to place
through the atmosphere, by means of the gentlest zephyr, or even
the evaporation continually taking place from the earth’s surface ;
and from the numerous facts already presented of the presence of
cryptogamic vegetation in many cutaneous diseases and upon other
diseased surfaces, I was led to reflect upon the possibility of plants
of this description existing in healthy animals, as a natural condi-
tion; or at least apparently so, as in the case of entozoa. Upon con-
sidering that the conditions essential to vegetable growth were the
same as those indispensable to animal Hfe, I felt convinced that
entophyta would be found in healthy living animals, as well, and
probably as frequently, as entozoa. The constant presence of myco-
dermatoid filaments growing upon the human teeth, the teeth of the
ox, sheep, pig, etc., favored this idea, and accordingly I instituted
a course of investigation, which led to the discovery of several well
characterized forms of vegetable growth, of which, at present, I will
give but a short description, for the purpose of establishing priority,
and propose giving a more detailed account of them, with figures,
in the second volume of the Journal.

LEnterobrus,* a new genus of Confervaceze.—Simple, attached,
isolated filaments consisting of a large cylindrical cell, (containing
protoplasma, granules, and large translucent globules enveloped in
a primordial utricle, ) with a distinct coriaceous peduncle or stipe of
attachment, and at length producing at the free extremity one or
two, rarely three, shorter cylindrical cells, (filled with the same
matter as the parent cell. )
Enterobrus elegans.—Filaments, olive brown, brownish, yellowish,
or colorless, at first forming a single spiral turn, and then passing
in a straight or gently curved line to the free extremity. Peduncle,
or stipe of attachment, adhering very firmly, coriaceous, uniformly,
brownish, narrower than the frond cell, papillary, columnar, elon-
gated conical or pyramidal, expanded at base and at point of attach-
ment to frond cell, marked with longitudinal lines, and frequently
with transverse annular constrictions, with no definite interior
structure. Length from 1-3750th to 1-4ooth of an inch; breadth
1-3200th to 1-1666th. Frond cell much elongated, frequently reach-
ing the length of 2 or 3 lines, uniformly cylindrical, excepting at free
extremity, where it is usually clavate; breadth in full grown indi-
viduals pretty uniformly 1-935th of an inch. Contents consisting
of a colorless protoplasma, with more or less numerous fine, trans-
lucent, yellowish or colorless granules, measuring about 1-15,00oth
of an inch, and numerous large, colorless, transparent globules or
vesicles filled with fluid, averaging the 1-2870th of an inch in diam-
eter. End cells only existing in full grown individuals, one, usu-
ally two, rarely three in number; the first one cylindrical, 1-86th
of an inch in length by 1-1oooth in breadth, filled with more gran-
ules and less globules than the parent cell; end cell clavate, 1-135th
of an inch long by 1-750th broad, at the clavate end 1-638, filled
with granular matter and a few globules.
Length of full grown individual 2 to 3, sometimes 4, lines.
FHlabitat.—Grows from the basement membrane of the mucous
membrane of the small intestine of /u/us marginatus, Say, occasion-
ally from the same membrane at the commencement of the large
intestine and also from any part of the exterior surface of Ascaris
infecta and dorurus: entozoa infesting these portions of the intes-
tinal canal of this animal.
The youngest individuals of /Axterobyus which I ever detected
measured 1-380th of an inch in length by 1-1060th in breadth, but
the most usual sizes vary from the 1-150th of an inch to the full

grown individual. At all ages they contain the same character of
contents, but in the younger ones the large globules are usually
predominant, sometimes to such an extent as to exclude the other
matters. When quite young they are usually more or less clavate
and straight, a little more advanced they form a gentle curve, about
one-eighth of a circle. A little older, the distal half or third be-
comes uniformly dilated, and forms an obtuse angle with the other
portion ; after this as it continues growing, it usually forms a single
spiral turn, becomes uniformly dilated, and thus advances to the
full-grown individual. The cell contents consist principally of
large transparent globules with granules and protoplasma in the
interstices. Frequently the cells are found distended with the glob-
ules to such an extent that the other matters almost, and occasion-
ally even entirely, disappear. Jodine turns the protoplasma and
granules deep yellow or very deep brown, and causes the rupture
of the granules, when a clear fluid is observed to exude, very
slightly colored purplish, or undergoing no change of color from
the iodine. Solution of iodine, acetic acid, salt water, or the pro-
longated action of water alone, causes a contraction of the cell con-
tents from the sides of the permanent cell wall, but they are still
held together by an apparent delicate membrane of the character of
a primordial utricle. Frequently in dead individuals the interior
contents shrink to two-thirds, occasionally to one-third the diam-
eter of the cell calibre, and almost 8 to 20 times the diameter of the
cell from each extremity, when they have the appearance of a shriv-
eled granular membrane. In these latter cases the characteristic
globules and granules have disappeared, and their place is more or
less occupied with water, and yellowish globular, highly refractive
bodies, which resemble oil. These latter globules vary in size from
a mere point to one-fourth the diameter of the cell. The smaller
ones are contained within the shriveled primordial utricle with a
few of the larger ones, and a number of the latter occupy a position
between the primordial utricle and the cell wall apparently formed
by a conjunction of the smaller globules and an exudation through
the primordial utricle during the act of contraction consequent upon
decomposition. They are insoluble in alcohol, but are soluble in
ether or a solution of potassa; in fact in all their properties they
resemble oil. Can these be oil globules the result of decomposi-
tion ?
The protoplasma or fluid of the cells is colorless or faintly yel-
lowish, contracts or coagulates upon the application of alcohol, and
is colored brown by iodine, having all the characters usually possessed

by that albuminoid fluid found in all young vegetable cells and de-
nominated protoplasma by H. von Mohl.
The clear granules are minute, yellowish and resemble fine oil
globules. They are turned deep brown by the action of iodine.
The clear globules appear to consist of a delicate vesicular mem-
brane probably derived from the primordial utricle, filled with
colorless fluid.
No circulatory or other movement as in Achyla prolifera, exists in
the cell contents. The end cells of the full-grown individuals are
usually two in number, and much shorter than the parent cell.
Occasionally I have found three end cells, more frequently but one.
These cells are formed by the parent cells, by a contraction first
taking place in the contents with the primordial utricle, a partition
from the permanent cell wall forming afterwards.
The end cells are probably spore cases ; their contents are usually
a dense mass of fine granules, similar to those of the parent cell, with
a few intermingled globules. I never saw any movement, either
molecular or other, in the contained matter, except during decom-
position.
A question may arise as to the true situation of this plant among
the cryptogamia. I have placed it in the order Confervacez, from
the diagnosis given by Endlicher, in his Genera Plantarum: ‘‘ Fila
capillaria, membranacea v. filamentosa, intus vy. extus articulata,
simplicia v. ramosa, libera (7. ¢e. haud in frondem coalita), interdum
tamen reticulatim contexta, viridia v. rarius fusca aut purpurea, in
formis infimis hyalina, etce.’’
Cladophytum,* a new genus of entophyta allied to the Mycoder-
mata. Filaments minute, attached by means of a roundish nucleous,
simple, or compound near the base of attachment, with minute lateral
ramuli, inarticulate, and with no evidence of interior structure.
Cladophytum comatum.—Filaments delicate, regular, colorless,
simple, more frequently branched near the base at very acute angles,
growing in more or less dense bunches from a yellowish rounded or
oval, attached, nuclear body varying in size from 1-7500th to 1-600th
of aninch. Lateral ramuli very minute, measuring in length from
I-15000th to 1-3000th of an inch, and passing off at acute angles.
No indication of articulation or interior structure.
Length from 1-666th to 1-r20th of an inch.

brane of the small intestine of /e/uws marginatus, occasionally from

the same surface at the commencement of the large intestine, from
any part of the exterior surface of entozoa infesting those cavities,
and also from any part of the surface of Enterobrus elegans.
Arthromitus,* a second new genus of entophyta, allied to the
Mycodermata.— Filaments always simple, cylindric, articulated,
without ramuli, attached by means of a nuclear body, and with no
evidence of interior structure.
Arthromitus cristatus.—Filaments delicate, straight or inflected,
growing in tufts usually of moderate density, from minute, attached,
yellowish rounded or oval nuclear bodies. Articulishort, cylindric,
uniform, measuring 1-9gogoth inch in length by 1-15,oooth in breadth,
with no traces of interior structure.
Length 1-375th to 1-46th of an inch, breadth 1-15,000th inch.
HTabitat.—Same as Cladophytum comatum, but rarely growing in
such dense tufts.
The three genera of entophyta of which I have now spoken are
all so constantly found in /elus marginatus that I look upon it as a
natural condition, and should I hereafter meet with an individual
without them, I will consider it a rare exception, because in one
hundred and sixteen individuals which I have examined during the
past thirteen months, in all seasons, and at all ages and sizes of from
one up to three inches of the animal, I have invariably found them.
It cannot be supposed that these are developed and grow after death,
because I found them always immediately upon killing the animal.
Whilst the legs of fragments of the animals were yet moving upon
my table, or one-half of the body even walking, I have frequently
been examining the plants growing upon part of the intestinal canal
of the same individual. And upon the entozoa these entophyta will
be frequently found growing, whilst the former are actively moving
about. I found among others an ascaris three lines long, which had
no less than twenty-three individuals of Avxterobrus, averaging a line
in length, besides a quantity of the other two genera, growing upon
it, and yet it moved about in so lively a manner that it did not ap-
pear the least incommoded by its load of vegetation. This specimen
I have preserved in a glass cell in Goadby’s solution, and exhibit it
to the Academy.
The animals were uniformly enjoying good health, 7. ¢., all the
organic and animal functions were natural ; they ate, grew, reached
their definite size, reproduced, and in fact presented all those actions
characteristic of the normal state of existence of the animal.

RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY 17
The genus /w/us is an extensive one, and its species are found in
all the great parts of the globe, and as their habits are the same, the
conditions for the production of the entophyta will be the same, and
I think I do not go too far when I say they will be constantly found
throughout the genus in any part of the world, so that naturalists
and others may, upon examination, readily verify or contradict the
statements which I have this evening presented.
From these facts we may perceive that we may have entophyta
in luxurious growth within living animals without affecting their
health, which is further supported by my having detected mycoder-
matoid filaments in the ccecum of six young and healthy rats, exam-
ined immediately after death, although they existed in no other
part of the body. These filaments were minute, simple and inar-
ticulate, measuring from 1-5000th to 1-1428th inch in length by
1-16000th of an inch in breadth. With them were also found two
species of lVz6r70.
Even those moving filamentary bodies belonging to the genus
Vibrio, J am inclined to think, are of the character of algous vege-
tation. Their movement is no objection to this opinion, for much
higher confervze, as the Oscillatorias, are endowed with inherent
power of movement, not very unlike that of the 74770, and indeed
the movement of the latter appears to belong only to one stage of
itsexistence. Thus, in the toad, (Au/fo americanus, ) in the stomach
and small intestine, there exist simple, delicate, filamentary bodies,
which are of three different kinds. One is exceedingly minute,
forms a single spiral, is endowed with a power of rapid movement,
and appears to be the Sfirillum undula of Ehrenberg ; the second
is an exceedingly minute, straight, and short filament, with a move-
ment actively molecular in character, and is probably the l’z4rio0
lineola of the same author ; the third consists of straight, motionless
filaments, measuring 1-1125th inch long by 1-15000th broad ; some
were, however, twice or even thrice this length; but then I could
always detect one or two articulations, and these, in all their char-
acters, excepting want of movement, resemble the /7zév70. In the
rectum of the same animal, the same filamentary bodies are found,
with myriads of odo intestinalis; but the third species, or longest
of the filamentary bodies, have increased immensely in numbers,
and now possess the movement peculiar to the /76rio lineola, which,
however, does not appear to be voluntary, but reactionary; they
bend and pursue a straight course, until they meet with some ob-
stacle, when they instantly move in the opposite direction, either
extremity forward.

But it must not be understood that these facts militate against
the hypothesis of the production of contagious diseases through the
agency of cryptogamia. It is well established that there are micro-
scopic cryptogamia capable of producing and transmitting disease,
as in the case of the Muscardine, &c., as that there are innocuous
and poisonous fungi. But to suppose that they are the sole cause
of contagious disease is to doubt the possibility of other causes,
such as change in the chemical constitution of the atmosphere, the
elements of our food, &c., and is as ridiculous as the psoric origin
of most diseases of that miserable charlatanry denominated homceop-
athy. In many instances it is difficult to distinguish their character
whether as cause or effect, as upon diseased surfaces, in 77znea capi-
fis, apthous ulcers, &c. In a post-mortem examination, in which
I assisted Dr. Horner, a few weeks since, 28 hours after death, in
moderately cool weather, we found the stomach in a much softened
condition. In the mucus of the stomach, I detected myriads of
mycodermatoid filaments, resembling those growing upon the teeth;
simple, floating, inarticulate, and measuring from 1-7000th to 1-520th
of an inch in length by 1-25,oooth of an inch in breadth. It is
possible that they may have been the cause of the softened condi-
tion; but I would prefer thinking that swallowed mycodermatoid
filaments from the teeth, finding an excellent nidus in the softening
stomach, rapidly grew and reproduced themselves. In the healthy
human stomach these do not exist.
In the stomach of a diabetic patient, I found so very few that they
probably did not grow there, but were swallowed in the saliva.
Dr. Leidy, after exhibiting numerous drawings of the entophyta
described by him, and also specimens, beneath the microscope, grow-
ing from the mucous membrane of the small intestine /a/ws, and from
the exterior surface of entozoa infesting that cavity, proceeded to
exhibit and describe some new genera and species of entozoa, as
follows :

teriorly moderately attenuated; tail curved, 1.214 of an inch in

ties; rectum pyriform ; female generative aperture about half way
between the mouth and tail. Whole length 4-5th of a line, breadth

more, of various ages and sizes, pretty constantly in the small in-
testine of /ulus marginatus Say. The males are found in the pro-
portion of about one in eight.

Remarks.—This genus is divisible, by several well-marked char-
acters, into two distinct sub-genera.
ist sub-genus. Stveptostoma.*—Body cylindrical, very strongly
marked with broad annuli. Mouth moderately large, round, bordered
by a collar (formed by the second annulus projecting beyond the
general outline of the body). (Hsophagus divided into two distinct
pyriform muscular bulbs, with a small intermediate rounded bulb.
Tail four-fifths the length of the body.
Streptostoma agile.—Female. Body larvaform, cylindrical, nar-
rowed anteriorly and posteriorly, opalescent white, divided into from
sixty-one to eighty-eight broad annulations, of which there are
twenty-one from the mouth to the commencement of the ventriculus.
Tail very straight, occasionally slightly sigmoid, or bent at the point,
narrow and sharply pointed, inflexible and brittle. Mouth moder-
ately large, round, projecting; pharynx almost null; cesophagus
consisting of three bulbs ; the first elongated pyriform, strongly mus-
cular, measuring 1-197th inch long by 1-319th inch broad ; second
bulb small, rounded, muscular, 1-882d inch long by 1-882d inch
broad ; third or true cesophageal bulb, pyriform 1-294th inch long
by 1-312th inch broad. Ventriculus dilated at commencement to
nearly the diameter of the body, afterwards straight and cylindrical
to near its termination, where it is slightly dilated. Rectum elon-
gated, pyriform. Generative aperture situated about twenty-four
rings above the anal aperture, which latter is placed between the
last two annuli of the body. Ovary double; ova 1-333d inch long
by 1-40o0th inch broad.
Length of body from 1-13 to 1-11th inch; breadth at commence-
ment of ventriculus 1-1r8th inch ; at middle of body 1-97 inch. ‘Tail
from 1-16 to r-15th inch long by 1-888th inch broad at its middle.
2d sub-genus.— 7helastoma.+
Body cylindrical, attenuated anteriorly, strongly marked with
moderately broad annuli. Mouth small, opening at the extremity
of asmall papilla. Csophagus divided into two distinct portions,
the first long and cylindrical, the second constituting the true
cesophageal bulb. ‘Tail more than half the length of the body.
Thelastoma attenuatum.—Female. Body attenuated anteriorly to
commencement of the ventriculus, opalescent white, divided into
from 140 to 160 annulations, of which there are from fifty-two to
fifty-seven from the mouth to the commencement of the ventriculus.
* Streptostoma :—Ltpextos et OTOPG.,
| Thelastoma :—OyA7 et otopa,
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 21
Tail very straight or very slightly curved or bent, slender, inflex-
ible and brittle, and sharply pointed. Mouth always projected,
small, surmounting a small papillary elevation formed by the first
annulus of the body. Pharynx very short and narrow ; cesophagus
strongly muscular, cylindrical, 1-47th inch long, by 1-533d inch
broad; cesophageal bulb pyriform, 1-178th inch long, 1-222d inch
broad. Ventriculus dilated alzeform, at commencement cylindrical
throughout. Rectum short, pyriform. Generative aperture 42 an-
nulations above the anal. Ovary double, ova 1-333d inch long by
t-40oth inch broad.
Length of body from 1-roth to 1-8th inch; breadth at middle r-g5th
inch. Tail 1-14th inch long by 1-1r11th inch broad at middle.
Habitat and Remarks.—Streptostoma agile and Thelastoma attenu-
atum are found together principally in the commencement of the
large intestine of /u/us marginatus, in numbers of from one to fif-
teen, and less frequently in the small intestine with Ascaris infecta,
in numbers of from one to six. It is remarkable, that although I
have found from one to fifteen of these two genera, in nine-tenths
of the animals examined, I have never yet been able to detect a
single male.
Thelastoma always has the mouth projected, whilst Strepfostoma
has it retracted, producing, in some measure, but by no means
wholly, the difference in size of the oral aperture.
At first I was inclined to think that these two animals were dif-
ferent stages of the same species, but the adults uniformly corre-
spond to the descriptions given, and in all cases contained more or
less perfected ova.
Their movements are active, wriggling the body in a sigmoid
manner and vibrating the delicate spiculated tail, which in sunlight
resembles a shining acicular crystal.
Thelastoma, from its form of cesophagus and narrower annulations
and shorter tail than S/reffostoma, occupies a position between the
latter and Oxyu7ts.
Gregarina, Dufour.
Body consisting of two distinct cells. Inferior cell the larger,
marked with delicate parallel, longitudinal lines, (muscular?) and
filled with a fine granular matter, obscuring one or two nucleolo-
nucleated organic cells. Superior cell placed in a depression of the
inferior, surmounted by a slight papilla in which may be detected
two lines, apparently outlines, of an oral canal to the interior of the
cell which is filled with granular matter; cell wall amorphous and
transparent.

Gregarina larvata.—Body opaque white, cylindrical or fusiform,
frequently considerably dilated at the middle of the upper third.
Superior cell a flattened or depressed sphere, received about one-half
into a depression of the inferior cell, surmounted by a papillary
elevation with traces of a communication with the exterior ; interior
filled with a finely granular mass resembling oil globules, and meas-
uring from 1-15000th to 1-7500th inch. Length of cell, in smallest
individuals 1-123d inch; in largest 1-80th to 1-61st inch broad. In-
ferior cell elongated, cylindrical or fusiform, not communicating with
the exterior nor with the interior of the superior cell; filled with a
mass of granules resembling that of the superior cell, rendering the
larger individuals opaque, but translucent in the smaller ones, and
usually obscuring one or two comparatively large nucleolo-nucleated
organic cells, measuring from 1-888th to 1-308th inch in diameter.
Cell-wall marked with exceedingly regular, delicate, longitudinal,
parallel lines about 1-9375th inch apart, apparently muscular in
character.
Length from 1-160th to 1-30th inch by 1-83oth to r-111th inch
in breadth.
Habitat.—Found in numbers from half a dozen to over a hundred,
in the ventriculus of /w/us marginatus.
Gregarina is probably the larva condition of some more perfect
animal, but in the 116 individuals of /w/ws which I have examined, I
have not been able to detect any form which could be derivable from
it. Creplin doubts its animality.* When I first discovered this
body, thinking it to be a larva, I did not examine it carefully, and
it was not until sometime afterwards when, being desirous of ascer-
taining its true nature, upon examining some fresh specimens be-
neath the microscope, / detected movements of an animal character, and
this led me to seek for muscular structure, which resulted in the discovery
of the longitudinal lines of the inferior + cell, ‘These escaped the ob-
servation of Siebold, for he says, ‘‘ Nach meine Beobachtungen
bestehen die Gregarinen aus einer harten glatten den Eihullen der

exceedingly sluggish, and consist of a very slow bending in any
direction of any part of the inferior cell, most usually above the

the superior cell, which is entirely passive. Thesuperior cell is also
frequently drawn or contracted within the inferior, and again pro-
truded by the contraction of the latter, and the propulsion of the
granular contents against it. The inferior cell is also frequently,
more especially in younger individuals, intussuscepted within itself
through a partial contraction ; and again relieved by a general con-
traction of the cell-wall.
In the state in which Gvegarina is found, it would probably hold
a rank between the 7vematoda and 7richina, the lowest of the Nema-
toidea.
Nyctotherus,* a new genus of Polygastrica, allied to Plesconia.—
Body ovate, dilated posteriorly, compressed anteriorly, granulated,
longitudinally lined, with an apparent operculum covering its an-
terior half, and having a semicircle of cilia just within its margin
inferiorly and posteriorly. Center of the operculated portion fur-
nished with a large trapezoidal finely granular areola. Posterior part
of the body with a short fissure passing inwards and downwards.
Nyctotherus velox.—Body white, ovate, conoidal, anterior margin
rounded, obtuse ; posteriorly acute. Posterior margin of the ap-
parent operculum passing in a curved line upwards upon the middle
of the body to within a short distance of the back, and furnished in-
feriorly with a point projecting backwards, with a line passing
down from the back about the middle of the operculum to the trape-
zoidal areola, giving the part of the body anterior to this the appear-
ance of a head. ‘Trapezoidal areola, with curved sides, finely
granular. Posterior fissure communicating with the exterior, just
above the acute termination of the body, and passing inwards and
downwards, resembling an anal aperture. Areolz of the interior
sarcous mass generally minute, one large and round pretty con-
stantly to be observed at the inner termination of the posterior
fissure.
Length from 1-254th to 1-180th inch; breadth from 1-320th to
I-254th inch.
Habitat.—Commencement of the large intestine of /e/us margi-
natus, often found in considerable numbers.
Remarks.—This genus is closely allied to Plesconia, but possesses
no appendages excepting the semicircle of cilia, just within the edge
of the apparent operculum.
The animal swims in water with great ease and grace. After
being in this fluid some time, the external investment bursts, and

Leucophrys, but not to such a great extent.
NOTE :—Since the above went to press, Dr. Leidy announced to
the Academy that he had discovered two new species of the ento-
phyte “nterobrus ; one of them, /. spiralis, 1-69th inch long, grow-
ing in the small intestine /wlus pusillus ; the other £. attenuatus,
1-24th inch long, growing more or less profusely with a second
species of Cladophytum, C. clavatum, in the ventriculus of the cole-
opterous insect, Passalus cornutus. ‘Thus has been established the
law ‘‘ that plants may grow in the interior of the healthy animal as a

DESCRIPTIONS (ACCOMPANIED BY DRAWINGS) OF A NEW GENERA
AND SPECIES OF ENTOPHYTA.
Enterobrus spiralis.—Y ellowish, brownish, brown or hyaline, form-
ing asingle, double or triple spiral. Peduncle brownish or yellowish,
columnar, 1-2500th inch long by 1-6000th inch thick; First or prin-
cipal cell uniformly cylindrical, filled with granules and globules,
1-4285th inch in diameter. Penultimate cell cylindrical, filled with
granules and a few globules, 1-428th inch long. End cell clavate,
filled with granules, 1-535th inch long by 1-3333d inch at broadest
part.

dozen individuals up to fifty or more of various ages. The speci-
mens of /u/us pusillus from which the plant was obtained measured
half an inch in length.

forming a double flexure or sigmoid curve, and then growing ina
very straight course to its termination. Peduncle yellowish, colum-
nar, sometimes double, 1-666th inch long by 1-2300th inch broad.

Flabitat.—Grows in profusion from mucous membrane of the ven-
triculus of Passalus cornutus.
Remarks.—This is a very graceful form, and is more disposed to
grow in bunches or close together than the other species. I have
not met with it with the terminal two cells in twelve specimens of
FPassalus, which contained over a hundred of the plants, although
from some of the individuals appearing truncated at the distal ex-
tremity, I think it probable that they may occur ; otherwise it would
form a distinct genus.
Cladophytum ramosissimum.—Filaments very long, very delicate
and very much branched, growing in fasciculi of moderate density
from granular masses.
Length 1-75th inch; thickness of principal filaments or trunks
1-1 5000th inch.
fflabttat.—Growing in moderate profuseness from the mucous mem-
brane of Passalus cornutus.
NEw GENUS. CORYNOCLADUS.*
Filaments hyaline, inarticulate, very compound, branches thicker
than the trunk, clavate, without ramuli, growing from rounded or
oval granular masses.
Corynocdladus radiatus.—Comatose, growing in very dense bunches,
occasionally straggling, branches spreading, terminal ones very long,
simple, clavate, 1-150th inch long.
Length 1-rooth inch, diameter of trunk 1-rooooth inch, branches
1-600th in.

tremities, growing in dense bunches from rounded granular masses.
Cell wall very thin and delicate, granular contents of cell very fine
and indistinct, measuring from 1-1ooooth ineh to 1-6000th inch, with
a few coarser granules, and occasionally a few globules, measuring
1-1875th in.

Besides the foregoing I have found numerous free or floating
entophyta in the contents, usually of the posterior part of the ali-
mentary canal, in mammalia, aves, reptilia, pisces, mollusca, insecta,
&c. These, at present, I do not feel at liberty to describe as new
or peculiar, from my want of acquaintance with cryptogamic botany.
A number of them, I have no doubt, if not peculiar, at least con-
tinue to grow luxuriantly in the intestinal canal; such are various
Mycoderma, &c. ; others very probably are swallowed with the food,
and pass from the intestinal canal unchanged. Numerous drawings
of these I exhibit to the Academy, and purpose leaving them to
future investigation, or to the consideration of cryptogamic botan-
ists, being a field well worthy of their researches. I also have a
number of others, the character of which is peculiarly entophytic ;
but these I have not yet studied out nor figured, but hope to pre-
sent descriptions of them to the Academy in a very short time.

Dr. Leidy stated it was now eighteen months since he had sought
for Entophyta within living animals, having been previously im-
pressed with the belief of their existence upon reflecting upon the
essential conditions of life. Four months since he exhibited to the
Academy numerous drawings and specimens of Entophyta obtained
from living animals ; he now exhibited others.
The essential conditions of life are five in number, viz., a germ,
nutritive matter, air, water, and heat. The four latter undoubtedly
exist in the interior of living animals, animal or entozoa germs also
are well known to exist, and it was rendered extremely probable
that vegetable germs would also exist, and with them all the con-
ditions necessary to vegetable growth. Plants have been very fre-
quently observed growing upon the exterior of animals, and less
frequently upon the interior, most usually upon diseased surfaces,
but the growth of such parasites had not been pointed out asa
normal and common condition as in the case of entozoa.
Dr. L. next reviewed the theory of generation. He inclines to
the opinion that sexual elements are absolutely necessary for the
perpetuation of germs. He considered the alteration of generation
in certain animals no objection to the law, for after successive de-
velopments an admixture of sexual elements is observed to be neces-

sary. The reproduction among Cryptogamia may probably often
exhibit phenomena analogous to the alternation of generation of
animals, but universally he thinks it will be discovered that a true
sexual mixture takes place in every species of these plants at some
period of their life. According to the observations of Schimper, it
is necessary among the mosses. From an observation made by
Klencke upon a fungus which grew upon a diseased surface, Dr. L.
thinks that sexual admixture would be discovered to take place in
the mycelium. In numerous instances it had been observed among
the Algze. He stated he thought he had noticed the process in
Achyla prolifera, and gave a description of the phenomena. He
finally considers that science is on the eve of demonstrating the
existence of a law ‘‘ that an admixture of sexual elements is necessary
for the perpetuation of specific life germs.”’
He then exhibited numerous elaborate drawings of new entophyta
observed growing in the ventriculus of Passalus cornutus, a remark-
able one growing in a honey-like liquid in the proventriculus of the
larva of Arctia /sabella, another from Acheta abbreviata, etc. He
remarked that when such plants were found in animals they were
usually very abundant.
Dr. L. then stated that very slight modifications in the five essen-
tial conditions of life were sufficient to produce the vast variety of
living beings upon the globe. As an instance, he mentioned he
had lying upon his table a saucer with a cork bottom, in which
lay a partially dissected Passalus cornutus half immersed in water.
Two days afterwards he noticed upon the part of the insect above
the water a quantity of J/ucor mucedo(?) growing, and from the part
within the water numerous fine, stiff filaments, which upon exami-
nation proved to be Achyla prolifera ; upon the cork around the
insect grew a third genus, consisting of fine cottony filaments, which
were articulated, of which he exhibited a drawing; and upon the
insect at the surface of the water, but not within the latter, grew a
fourth genus, of which he also exhibited a drawing.
He also stated that he had had the good fortune of observing ina
single morning all the stages of development of Achyla prolifera
growing from some individuals of Ascarides which had been lying
in a dish of water for a few days.
In reply to some remarks made by members, Dr. Leidy said he
could not admit the doctrine of spontaneous generation, but rather
thought modifications in the essential conditions of life favorable to
the development of different and always pre-existing germs derived
from a parent.

Dr. Leidy presented to the examination of the Society a colored
and several other drawings of what he terms an entophytic forest,
taken from a portion of the mucaus membrane of the ventriculus of
Passalus cornutus. He remarked that at least six species of Ento-
phyta were found growing upon the mucous membrane of the ven-
triculus of P. cornutus, which were often presented in great quantity,
frequently some thousands, and which from their number, polymor-
phous appearance of several species, and attachment to various ap-
pendages of the mucous membrane, resembled very strikingly a min-
iature Brazilian forest, which was heightened in some degree by the
existence of a nematoid worm, which recalled to mind the idea of
one of the serpents of such a forest.
A somewhat similar drawing he exhibited, taken from the small
intestine of /adus marginatus.
Other drawings were also presented. Dr. L. stated that among
his collection of living Julides, he had a number of times observed
individuals to become dull in color and become almost motionless,
which phenomena were followed by the death of the animal. It
occurred to him that, in such a state, there might be exhibited some
change in the character of its Entophyta, as usually found in the
active condition of the animal. Upon removing the intestine of an
individual which had just died, he noticed that the entozoa which
usually occupied the small intestine, had passed into the rectum, and
upon the surface of the mucous membrane of the former was devel-
oped a new plant. This isan oblate spheroidal body, white in color,
translucent, embossed upon the surface, and presenting, when
viewed by transmitted light, some resemblance to a minute bleached
shell of an Echinus ; by reflected light, it resembled a minute, white
Lycoperdon. This plant was strewed all over the mucous membrane,
but grew in greatest quantity along the course of filaments of Enter-
obrus, which appeared attached to the mucous membrane throughout
their length by it. When compressed it opened, and spread into
several leaf-like segments, and exuded a clear fluid with faint gran-
ules. He thought that probably this plant might be another stage
in the existence of Ax/erobrus, for in the large number of individuals
of /wlws which he had examined—upwards of 130 —although he had
observed the development of x/erobrus from spore-like bodies, even
to the formation of what he supposed to be the sporangia, yet he
had never been able to detect the formation of spores, and when he
saw this new plant enveloping the Ax/erobrus filaments he sus-

pected that there might be phenomena here presented analogous to
the alternation of generation in certain animals, but had not yet
satisfied himself that such was the case.
He also stated that he had discovered a fourth species of £7z/e-
robrus in Polydesmus virginiensis and another entophyte analogous to
Enterobrus growing in Polydesmus granulatus. ‘The latter differs
from Lxferobrus in having numerous globular cells at the free ex-
tremity of the principal cell. He adverted to the several theories
of cell formation, and said that in the last-mentioned plant in the
development of the globular terminal cells the division of the per-
manent cell wall followed the division of the cell contents. In con-
clusion, he observed that these matters would be more fully treated
of hereafter in a memoir which he was preparing on the subject.*

Fccrina + (Gen. Nov. ).—Characters same as /xferobyrus,} except
that it divides into numerous cells at the free extremity.
Eccrina longa.—Filaments long and delicate, hyaline, or faintly
brownish, at first forming a simple curve or a single spiral turn and
then passing in a straight line to the free extremity. Peduncle
very short. Frond cell usually filled with globules, and a few
granules, except at free end, where it is usually filled with granules,
to the exclusion of the globules. End cells as high as thirty in
number, at first consisting of elongated divisions of the frond cell
contents, but becoming distinct elliptical cells from two to three
times longer than the breadth ; contents usually granular, occasion-
ally with a few globules. End cells finally separating from the
parent. Length from three to seven lines; breadth 1-2000th to
1-517th inch, not usually corresponding to the length. End cells
1-517th to 1-357th inch in length.

Eccrina moniliforma.—Filaments hyaline or yellowish, forming a
double or treble spiral. Peduncle short. Frond cell filled with glob-
ules and granules, except toward its free extremity, where it is filled
with granular matter divided into distinct and separate masses, usu-
ally a little shorter than broad, and containing each a globular nu-
cleolated nucleus. Divisions progressively passing towards the end
into globular cells with granular contents. Divisions and globular
cells from 20 to 50 in number.
Length from 1 to 1% lines, breadth average 1-1500th inch. Di-
visions of frond cell contents and globular cells from 1-1875th to
1-1500th inch. Nucleus of cells 1-37 50th inch.
Habitat.—-Grows in moderate quantity from the mucous membrane
of the intestine of 50 per cent of Polydesmus granulatus.
Arthromitus nitidus.—Filaments very long, hyaline, grows usually
in twos or fours, pointed at the origin, rounded at the termination.
Articuli very distinct, length equal to the breadth of the filament.
Sporuli formed within the articuli, solitary, usually oblique, oval,
amorphous.
Length 1 line by 1-5000th inch broad. Spores t-7.111th inch
long by 1-12.500th inch broad.
Habitat.—Grows in considerable quantity with a profusion of
young Lxterobryus elegans from the mucous membrane of the poste-
rior portion of the rectum of /z/us marginatus.
Remarks.—Since I established the genus A7vthromitus* I have
observed the formation of its sporuli. These originate in the amor-
phous matter of the articuli, apparently by avery gradual aggrega-
tion and condensation of the contents. They are always single and
usually lie oblique, and frequently alternate with each other in this
position in the different articull. When they first appear they are
larger than when fully formed, are frequently bent, or clavate in
form, and very indistinct, but as they ripen they become more regu-
lar, oval, distinct, and quite refractile of light. Usually they are
observed at the extremity of the filaments only, but frequently they
are found existing in the whole length of the latter.
A species of Arthromitus, and also of Cladophytum is found in the
intestine of Polydesmus virginiensis.
The Higrocrocis intestinalis, found by Valentin in the latta orten-
talis, I could not find in our domestic cockroach, although I found
numerous simple, phytoid, inarticulate filaments, growing from an
oxyuris infesting this animal.

CONTRIBUTIONS TO HELMINTHOLOGY.
1. Ligula Tritonis.—Body ribbon like, thin, translucent, nearly
smooth, faintly yellowish white, posteriorly obtusely rounded.
Head thickened, rounded, transversely corrugated, yellowish.
Extremity triangularly rounded, laterally compressed, front and
back, with a short, longitudinal, contracted depression.
Whole length 1 inch g lines ; breadth of body 1-3d line; thick-
ness I-12th line; length of head 1 line; breadth 1-4th line; thick-
ness I-9th line.
Flabitation and Remarks.—This species was sent to me by my
friend, Prof. S. F. Baird, of Carlisle, with the note ‘‘ Found em-
bedded in the muscles of the back of 77z/on (Cynops) dorsalis.’’? It
is the smallest species which has as yet been discovered, and the
first among batrachian reptilia. The specimen sent to me consisted
of two fragments of the same individual preserved in alcohol. Ex-
amined beneath the microscope it presented no trace of articulation
or interior definite organs.
2. Pentastomum Didelphidis Virginiane.—Body subcylindrical,
curved one-third or one-half a circle, dorsum convex, ventrum con-
cave, posteriorly narrowed and constricted a short distance from the
extremity, which is rounded. Color white, opaque. Composed
of forty or fewer annulations. Head posteriorly convex, anteriorly
plain or slightly concave ; mouth nearly round ; hooks simple, situ-
ated in a curved line of which the mouth forms the center.
Whole length 3 to 5 lines; breadth 3-5ths of a line; annuli gener-
ally 1-80th inch wide; mouth 1-200th inch in diameter ; hooks
1-200th inch long.
Habitation and Remarks.—I found g individuals of this entozoon
in C-shaped cysts, the circle being 2 lines in diameter, imbedded in
the liver just beneath the peritoneal surface in Dde/phis virginiana.
It may probably be the Pentastomum subcylindricum of Diesing,*
which was found in cysts upon the liver of two South American
species of Dide/phis and several other animals; but the largest of
those found in our JD. virginiana is equal to the smallest of P.
subcylindricum, and has not more than one-half the number of annu-
lations.

NOTES ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE GORDIUS AQUATICUS.
Just four years ago I exhibited to the Academy a mass of living
hair-worms or Gordius aquaticus, consisting of fourteen individuals
strangely knotted together, and recalling the appropriateness of the
Linnean name.
It is a vulgar opinion that the Gordius is a horse hair which has
become vivified from maceration for several weeks in a spring or
pool of fresh water, an error which has probably arisen from their

frequently being found in water filling a wagon rut or the drinking
trough of a horse. I have even been informed by some persons,
though by those not given to observe such matters, that they had
perceived the direct transmutation of horse hairs into writhing
worms, and I was at one time so silly as to be led to try the experi-
ment, with what success it is unnecessary for me to state.
The Gordii alluded to in the mass were blackish brown in color,
from 6 to 10 inches in length, and most of them had attached to the
posterior extremity of the body a long, white, opaque cord, in sev-
eral instances nearly as long and as thick as the worms themselves.
‘These cords, some of the members may recollect, I pointed out at the
time as being strings of the ova of the Gordii, but I then was not so
well acquainted with the history of the Gordzus as at present—that
is to say, I did not know that we have no knowledge whatever of
its origin or development—and although through curiosity I traced
for a few days the development of the embryo in ova, yet I did not
do it with that care which its importance demanded. But however
imperfect have been the observations made with this acknowledg-
ment, I have thought it would be well to record them with the hope
that they may not only throw some light upon the obscure nature
of the Gordius, but also lead others to the discovery of a similar
opportunity of investigating this animal under more favorable cir-
cumstances of locality and information. ‘The observations I have
withheld for a length of time in the hope that I might be able to
verify or correct them, but failing to do so to the present time I
now reluctantly put them forth from my notes taken at the time.
The white cords before mentioned consisted of numerous oval
ova closely aggregated together. "These when examined beneath
the microscope on the first day after I obtained them exhibited a
white granular yolk divided into four globular masses connected
together and surrounded by atransparent albumen. Each mass con-
tained in its center a clear cell or vesicle. On the second day the
separation among the yolk masses was less distinct, and upon the
third day the whole had united into one oval, finely granular body,
and the interior vesicles had disappeared. The fourth and fifth days
no perceptible change was observable. From the sixth to the eighth
day the yolk had become conical in form, and upon the ninth day the
base of the cone exhibited a cleft or fissure which by the tenth day had
extended two-thirds the length of the mass. During the whole of
this period the yolk retained its granular character and was motion-
less. Upon the eleventh day it resembled a cylinder doubled upon
itself, or the outline of the embryo had been formed, and one ex-

tremity of it, corresponding to the head, had become translucent from
a solution of the granular matter within. ‘The other or tail end
was subacute. The twelfth day the translucency had extended
itself to the interior part of the embryo, the extremity of which had
advanced beyond the others and presented an emargination commu-
nicating with an orifice opening into a canal visible in the interior,
and from the edge of the extremity was developed a circle of short
filaments which projected downwards and outwards. From the
thirteenth to the fifteenth days the granular matter had entirely
undergone a solution within the anterior half of the embryo, and
the latter had become somewhat dilated. The interior canal was
also more distinct, and the bordering filaments of the extremity
were larger. In the course of the sixteenth to the eighteenth day
the translucent half of the animal was separated from the other by
a constriction, and the canal in the interior presented at its anterior
portion a clavate tubular body, the free end of which projected
from the oral aperture. The extremity of the head was surrounded
by a reflected collar, from the free border of which projected the
filamentary appendages. The posterior half of the embryo was
still granular in appearance, but had become rounded and somewhat
dilated at the extremity. From the nineteenth to the twentieth day
the embryo alternately retracted and protruded the tentacular or fila-
mentary appendages, and the integument of the anterior half of the
body appeared to be getting annulated, which was distinctly so by
the twenty-first day. The granular matter in the posterior part of
the body was also undergoing solution from the periphery towards
the center, and at its posterior part there appeared several large oil
globules. On the twenty-second day the annulations of the ante-
rior half of the body were very distinct,-the posterior half was also
becoming annulated, and near its extremity I for the first time ob-
served an anal orifice and one to four small epidermal spines. On
the twenty-fourth day the tubular clavate organ before mentioned,
occupying the anterior part of the alimentary canal, was alternately
protruded and retracted as a proboscis. The proboscis, when fully
protruded, brought into view at its base a second circle of tentacu-
lar filaments withinthe first. On the twenty-sixth day the embryo,
when pressed from the egg, progressed forward by moving the pos-
terior half of its body from side to side, and it alternately pro-
truded and retracted the proboscis and the two circles of tentacular
filaments. When all the latter organs were retracted the head pre-
sented a truncate or depressed surface, and in their protrusion the
extremities of the outer circle of tentaculee and the end of the pro-

boscis first became visible; as these advanced the second circle of
tentacule appeared, and when the proboscis was entirely protruded
the outer tentacule were deeply reflected upon the outside of the
body, and the inner circle projected obliquely outward and upward.
The proboscis was clavate in form or cylindrical and moderately
dilated at its free end, and more so at its base. The following six
days no perceptible change was observable in the development of
the animal, and after this the egg showed evident appearances of
decay, and I gave them no further attention.

DESCRIPTION OF THREE FILARI/E.
1. Filaria Hominis oris.—Body white, opaque, linear, thread-
like. Mouth round, simple. Posterior extremity obtuse, furnished
with a short, curved, epidermal hooklet 1-500th inch in length by
t-2000th inch in diameter at base.
Length 5 inches 7 lines; greatest breadth 1-66th inch; breadth
at mouth 1-250th inch, at posterior extremity 1-8o0th inch.
Remarks.—The description is taken from a single specimen pre-
served in alcohol in the collection of the Academy, labelled, ‘*‘ Ob-
tained from the mouth of a child.”’
Is it a young individual, or perhaps a male of the Fi/avia medi-
nensis or Guinea worm? ‘The latter, as it is well known, infests the
human body, often growing to an enormous length, several yards or
more, in the inter-tropics of Asia and Africa. It is frequently
brought in the body of negro slaves from Africa to America, where
no entozoon of the kind has ever been noticed to be parasitic in man
as an indigenous production. From some late observations on the
course of life of entozoa, helminthologists have been led to suspect
that most, and probably all, entozoa pass different stages of their
existence in different animals. If such be the fact, may the /7/aria
medinensis not owe its introduction into the human body from the
custom which prevails in those countries where the worm is found
of using insect food? Insects are well known to be infested with
Filarize, probably more than any other class of animals. In Egypt,
Arabia, &c., the locust is eaten, in Guinea, &c., the larger coleop-
tera, in the raw state, and in this condition Filariz may often be
swallowed, and reach a higher development of their existence in the
human body.
2. Filaria Canis cordis.—Body white, opaque, linear, nearly uni-
form throughout, posteriorly subulate, pointed; mouth simple,
round.
Length 10 to 10% inches, greatest breadth 2-5ths of a line, ante-
riorly 1-5th of a line; half an inch from posterior end, 1-1oth of a
line.

Remarks. —The description is taken from two individuals preserved
in alcohol, in the collection of the Academy, presented by Dr. R.
Coates, who obtained them, according to the label upon the bottle,
from the parietes of the heart of a dog.
3. Filaria Boe constrictorts.
Body white, cylindrical ; integument translucent, longitudinally
straited, mouth simple, round; cesophagus cylindrical, opaque,
white ; intestine opalescent, cylindrical, tortuous, corrugated, wider
than the cesophagus; anus terminal, round; generative aperture
close to the mouth ; ovaries two, very long and very tortuous.
Remarks.—Vhe description is taken from two specimens ; one ro
inches long by 4-5ths of a line wide, the other 6% inches long by
3-5ths of an inch wide. In the former the cesophagus is 9 inches
long and 1-3d of a line wide, the intestine 13 inches long and 3-5ths
of a line wide.
flabitation.—Found in the areolar tissue, in an irregular or tortu-
ous position, between the muscles of the ribs and the integument of
a Boa constrictor.
Notrre.—In the same Boa constrictor, which was dissected by
my friend Dr. Hallowell and myself, we found in the right lung
6 females, 4 males, and a very young individual of Pentastomum
proboscideum, and in the ureters of the kidneys 26 individuals of
Distomum horridum.

at the extremity ; posteriorly in twos, one rudimentary. Each an-
nulation furnished with a circlet of elevated, rounded tubercles,
1-8ooth inch in height, and numerous smaller ones, also arranged
in transverse circles. Anterior 3 or 4 annulations reddish ; after
these 25 are deep black, except the roth or girdle, which is broad

little projecting that mouth appears almost terminal, furnished with
short, stiff hairs. Whole number of annulations 50.
Length 4 lines; length of setae 1-133d inch to 1-80th inch ; length
of podal hooks 1-400th inch to 1-178th inch.
Habitation.—Found in the spring of the year in the ferruginous
mud at the bottom of springs impregnated with iron, near Phila-
delphia.

Body cylindrical, elongate ; mouth inferior, large, triangular ;
anus terminal. Podal spines in transverse fasciculi, inferior, simple;
the first pair of fasciculi close to the mouth; the second distant.
Intestine straight, capacious. Eyes none. Blood white. Increas-
ing by division. Leidy.
2. Chaelogaster Gulosus.—Body whitish, translucent ; posteriorly
obtuse, ciliated with long hairs; mouth infero-terminal, large, tri-
angular, simple, upper lip digitiform, ciliated. G4sophagus short,
narrow; first stomach long, cylindrical, transparent ; second stom-
ach large, oblong ; intestine straight, capacious. Podal spines in
pairs of fasciculi of 5 or 6 each, simple, divergent, curved back-
ward near the free end, retractile ; first pair just posterior to each
side of the mouth inferiorly ; second pair removed far back. Usu-
ally found in the state of division; commonly 2 to 4 subdivisions.
First subdivision 1-24th inch, furnished with 6 pairs of fasciculi
of podal spines ; the second pair one-half the length of the subdi-
vision from the first or oral pair. Second subdivision 1-rooth inch;
third 1-66th inch; fourth 1-1ooth inch. Each of these latter fur-
nished with 4 fasciculi of podal spines.

FHlabitation and Remarks.—Found abundantly with Hydra fusca,
etc., in the water of marshes in the vicinity of Philadelphia. This
worm is very active in its movements and very rapacious. Creep-
ing upon bodies in the water, it rapidly elongates the anterior part
of its body in various directions, and swallows great numbers of the
smaller infusoria. In turn it is much preyed upon by the Hydra
fusca. When the anterior part of the body is elongated in search
of food the mouth is much distended and terminal.

tortuous, furnished with a gizzard containing a dental apparatus.
Mouth and anus terminal. Eyes two or three, on each side of
head.
1. Emea Rubra.— Elongated, compressed, contracting irregularly,
broadest posteriorly, anteriorly obtuse, yellowish flesh colored.
Head semi-oval, neck projecting laterally. Eyes, two or three
black spots placed in a line behind one another on each side of the
head and neck. Mouth simple, opening into a narrow pharynx.
Intestine cylindrical, narrowed posteriorly, furnished with a small,
round, muscular stomach containing a corneous dental apparatus
at its entrance. Generative apparatus consisting of two very tor-
tuous and capacious tubes, passing the whole length of the body on
each side of the alimentary canal.
Length from 3 to 10 lines; breadth 1-5th to 1-3d of a line.
Habitation and remarks.—Found in marshes in the vicinity of
Philadelphia, creeping upon dead vegetable substances or upon the
ground. When touched or irritated it secretes a large quantity of
very tenacious mucus. Under slight pressure it will voluntarily
evert more than one-half of the intestinal canal through the mouth,
and, upon removal of the pressure, after some minutes will again

withdraw it, and apparently without any injury having been sus-
tained, as the animal lives for days afterwards in its usual circum-
stances. The interior of the body, in the intervals of the viscera,
is filled with discoidal corpuscles, as in /Vais, ete. The interior
of the intestine is everywhere furnished with nutritive villoid
appendages.
2. Anortha.**“—Body sub-compressed, soft, naked, vibrillated, in-
articulate. Alimentary canal simple, straight, alternately con-
tracted and dilated. Mouth and anus terminal, simple, indistinct.
Eyes, none.
2. Anortha Gracilis.—White, opalescent, very contractile, monili-
form from an alternation of contraction and dilation, corresponding
usually to ten segments, into which the animal may be subdivided,
but more of less disappearing elongation of the body, becoming
more apparent by wrinkling in shortening of the body ; anteriorly
semi-ovate, subacute; posteriorly elongated, cylindroid, obtusely
rounded. Apparent segments panduriform, furnished each posteri-
orly with a clear globular nucleolated nucleus. Intestine variable
in capacity, usually dilated in the anterior dilatation of each appar-
ent segment, and much contracted in the intervals.
Length from 1 to 2 lines, shortening 1 or 1-4th of a line; breadth
when elongated from 1-400th to 1-300th inch; when shortened
from 1-300th inch to % of a line.
flabitation and Remarks.—F¥ound in the same situation as the pre-
ceding, creeping planaria-like upon different substances, or most
frequently holding a vertical position in the water, apparently with-
out movement, but retaining their position by means of the actively
moving vibrillaee, which are comparatively larger than in the preced-
ing worms. ‘They appear to feed upon vegetable particles brought
to the mouth by means of the currents produced by the vibrillz.
The intestine is usually empty, except at the dilated portions, where
it is yellowish or greenish, from granular matters contained within.
The whole structure of the animal is exceedingly simple, composed
of nucleolated, granular corpuscles, those forming the exterior of
the body being furnished with vibrillae. Under slight pressure these
corpuscles undergo separation from one another and become globu-
lar by endosmosis. In this state they measure from I-7o0o0th inch
to 1-2800th inch. The nucleoli are globular, shining, and measure
1-gooth inch in diameter. The exterior vibrillated corpuscles, after
separating from the body, often move about for some seconds. ‘The

vibrille measure about 1-3500th inch long. Each segment of the
animal’s body at its posterior part contains a globular transparent
nucleus measuring 1-2333d inch in diameter, with a globular, re-
fractile nucleolus 1-7oo0th inch in diameter. This latter body, with
the form of the apparent segments, makes the animal resemble a row
of gregarinze attached together.

Dr. Leidy remarked that in a recent visit to Dr. Wilson, near
Newark, Delaware, while rambling in a neighboring wood, upon
turning over a log he discovered a mole cricket (G7il/o-talpa ameri-
cana) standing very quietly at the mouth of a hole. Upon taking it
up the animal exhibited no signs of movement, though perfectly
fresh and lifelike in appearance. He took it home and next morn-

ing examined it and found it still presented no signs of life. Every
part of the insect was perfect, not even the antennze being broken.
Upon feeling it, it was very hard and resistant, and on making an
incision through the thorax it exhaled a fungoid odor. ‘The insect
had been invaded with a parasitic fungus, which ev erywhere filled
the animal, occupying the position of all the soft tissues, even into
the tarsal joints. It formed a yellowish or cream-colored compact
mass, and in the abdomen inclosed in its center the stomachal teeth
of the insect.
Examined microscopically, the fungus matter was found to consist
of a mycelium of filaments for the most part simple, but occasionally
branched, and elliptical or globular sporular bodies, ay eraging
1-2333d inch in diameter.

Dr. Leidy remarked that it had occurred to him whilst examining
the mole cricket, referred to at the meeting of May 20, that if the
fragments of the insect were placed under favorable conditions, the
fungoid matter in the interior of the insect might develop itself into
an external formof fungus. He accordingly placed them in a small
glass case, with some moist sphagnum, and allowed them to remain
until the present time. Dr. lL. exhibited the glass case with the
fragments, each having sprouted out of it one, two, or three elon-
gated, conical stipes of a cream color, from three lines to 1 inch
long, and from '% to 1% lines in diameter. Dr. Leidy, continued,
in examining insects for entophyta and entozoa, he had found the
hemiptera remarkably free from them, which he considers an im-
portant fact. Those insects which eat large quantities of vegetable
solid food, especially such as eat decaying substances, are very much
infected with parasites. The spontaneous generation of entophyta
and entozoa finds but few advocates at the present day. Late re-
searches leads us to suspect that many, if not all, entozoa pass part
of their life out of the animals in which they are known as para-
sites, under forms different from those when within the animals.
The entrance of the parasites into other animals is effected prob-
ably in two ways: with the food of the latter, or by boring from
the exterior. [he former method is probably the most frequent in
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 53
aerial animals; and both methods are frequent in aquatic animals,
because in the latter case the water affords a good vehicle for the
approach of the parasites to any part of the body of the animals to
be infected.
As hemipterous insects suck the juices only of plants or animals,
through a delicate proboscis, they are placed under circumstances
the most favorable of all animals to avoid taking in with their food,
ova, spores, or developed animals and plants of a parasitic character,
whilst insects like Passalus, crickets, etc., or /u/us among myriapoda,
from their eating decaying substances, swallowing large morsels of
such food, are very apt to take in parasites.
Frequently I have detected adhering to insects and annelida, while
living, cryptogamic sporules, which, under favorable circumstances,
before or after the death of the animal, undergo development into
the perfect plant. House-flies, and especially earth-worms, are very
liable to the growth of dAck/ya upon them, and sometimes I have
even detected the growth of the latter upon the surface of earth-
worms still living.

contractile appendages expanded. Upon any disturbance it rapidly
retreats within its tube. A sessile species of vorticella is frequently
found attached to the posterior part of the body.
At first sight there appears to be only three appendages each side
of the anus, but closer examination proves the existence of a fourth,
small and not so distinct.

Dr. Leidy stated that the Cicada septendecim was subject to a fun-
gous disease. The posterior part of the abdomen he observed in
several instances to be filled with a mass of oval spore-like bodies,
embossed upon their surface, but becoming smooth from endosmosis
when placed in water.
He also stated that he had just received the dead larva of a lamelli-
corn insect, which was filled with the same fungus which sometimes
attacks the mole cricket.

GEN. Nov. SYNPLECTA.*
Body nematoid, cylindroid, distinctly and coarsely annulated.
Head composed of two trilobed portions, between which is the
mouth. C#sophagus long, simple. Intestine narrow, simple. Male,
attenuated at the extremities ; posteriorly rolled into a spiral, and
furnished ventrally with numerous tegumentary tubercles. Penis
short, corneous, composed of two lateral portions. Female anteriorly
attenuated ; posteriorly terminating in a strong, thick muscular
acetabulum, with a posterior conoidal depression containing a single
strong, recurved hook. Anus and generative apertures close together,
just anterior to the muscular acetabulum. Ovum elliptical, elongated
at the poles.
The female of this curious genus of nematoid entozoa attaches
herself by means of the posterior hook to the mucous membrane of
the intestinal canal of the animal it infests, while the male clings to the
female by winding the posterior part of its body spirally around the
posterior part of the latter, retaining itself in that position through
the aid of the numerous tubercles upon its ventral surface, which
closely apply themselves to the part of contact in the female.
1. Synplecta Pendula, n. s.
Body faintly reddish-white, cylindroid. Annulations with from
12 to 18 transverse muscular strize. Lobes of the head nearly equal.
CHsophagus very long, cylindroid, slightly dilated inferiorly. In-

quadrilateral plates 1-1600th inch long by 1-2666th inch broad, ex-
tending asfar back as the anus. ‘Tail curved, conoidal, 1-60th inch
long from the anus, furnished ventrally with 7 or 8 pairs of minute
conical tubercles. Csophagus 1-5th line long, 1-333d inch broad ;
intestine 1-4ooth inch broad. Penis 1-200th inch long, conoidal,
obtuse, bent at free extremity, composed of two lateral halves.
Female,—Six to 11 lines long, 1-5th to 1-4th line broad. Poste-
rior extremity bent, dilated, terminating in a thick, oval, strongly
muscular receptacle or acetabulum, truncated posteriorly and exca-
vated into a deep conical cavity, containing a strong hook, with
the point directed forward, 1-200th inch long, with a base 1-4ooth
inch broad. Qsophagus, in an individual 8% lines long, 1 line long
by 1-666th inch broad at commencement, 1-333d inch at termina-
tion. Intestine 1-450th inch broad. Ovum 1-57oth inch long,
I-3333d inch broad.
FHfabitation.—Stomach and commencement of small intestine of
Emys guttata,
Remarks.—The female hangs suspended by its posterior hook from
the mucous membrane of the stomach of the Amys, in which it is
parasitic, while the male clings closely to the female by means of its
spiral folds, retaining its position readily from the roughness of sur-
face produced by its numerous ventral tubercles, and also those upon
the tail. I found this entozoon three times, in 15 individuals of
Lmys guttata. In one instance it was a large female ; in the second
two, average size females, and one male; in the third instance the
stomach was distended with the worms, of which about one in five
or six was male, and usually clung to the largest of the females.

3. Tenia Pulchella, n. s.
White, without any admixture of any other color, variable,
usually broadest anteriorly. Head quadrilateral, sub-clavate, ob-
tusely rounded, broader than the neck. Acetabula circular, cup-
shaped, lateral and opposite sessile, protractile. Neck very long,
eylindroid. Articuli containing several colorless globules; ante-
riorly subglobular or transversely oval ; posterior moniliform, longi-
tudinally oval, or cylindroid and centrally incrassate.

compressed, whitish, anteriorly attenuated, proboscidiform ; tip
recurved, fuliginous, obtuse; posteriorly broadest, terminating
acutely. Eyes two, black, globular, lateral, slightly prominent.
Length 2 to 5 lines; breadth at the anterior fourth 1-8th of a line ;
at posterior fourth, 1-4th of a line.
FTabitation.—Beneath stones, flower-pots, and boxes in gardens in
Philadelphia, and under fragments of wood, bark, old logs, etc., in
forests in the neighborhood of Philadelphia.
Remarks.—This is the first terrestrial Yanaria which has been de-
tected in North America. I accidentally discovered it first beneath
several flower boxes and pots in the small garden attached to my
residence in this city, since which I sought for and found it in the
hilly woods bordering the Wissahickon creek and Schuylkill river.
In its movements it resembles a slug (Zzmax), and like this leaves
behind it a mucous trail. When in motion the anterior portion of
the body is much elongated and very narrow, and the portion anterior
to the eyes is recurved. Frequently it raises the anterior third of
the body from the ground, moving it from side to side as if in search
of something. The recurved portion inferiorly is flat, with the edges
often inflected.
When at rest the body is contracted into an oblong form, and the
head lies doubled upon the back. ‘The longest will contract to 2%
lines in length by % a line in breadth, and 1-3d line thick posteriorly,
and 1-4th line wide anteriorly.
The coloring matter upon the back is arranged in faint transverse
annuli, accumulating upon each side of the middle into a longitudinal
line, and a transverse spot about the center.
The eyes are globular, apparently composed of a vitreous humor,
two-thirds enveloped with a black pigment. They are situated
laterally, 1-1ooth to 1-48th of an inch posterior to the extremity of
the head, and measure about 1-500th inch in diameter.
The mouth is inferior and a little posterior to the center. sopha-
gus keg-shaped, about 1-50th inch long. From the acute tail end is
secreted a delicate mucous thread.
The /lanaria appears not to like the water, for although it will
live for some hours beneath the surface when prevented from rising,
yet it always seeks to leave it and remains out when it has escaped.
In the same forest localities with the /Yavar7ia is found an insect
larva, possessing similar habits, which upon careless inspection might
be mistaken for it. The movements of the larva are more rapid and
vermicular.

SUB-GENUS NOV. BDELLOURA.*
Characters same as //anaria, without tentacule, and the posterior
extremity of the body separated by a constriction serving as a disk
of attachment.
5. Bdelloura Parasitica, n. s.
Body milk white, with a faintly yellowish intestine showing through
the translucent integument, smooth, thin, lanceolate, or spatulate :
anteriorly narrowed, obtuse ; lateral margins, thin, undulating ; con-
stricted portion posteriorly truncated, nearly as broad as the middle
of the body. Hyestwo, reniform. Csophagus, simple, cylindrical,
campanulate when protruded.
Length from 3 to Io lines; breadth 2-5ths to 234 lines. The
longest may contract to 6 lines by 3% lines.
Flabitation.—Parasitic upon the King Crab, Polyphemus occidentalis,
Lam. Found often in great numbers, adhering with considerable
tenacity by means of the posterior constricted extremity of the body
to the under surface of the branchial covers, the branchial laminz,
and to the extremities, especially in the vicinity of the joints.
Remarks.—When the King crab is removed from the water its
planaroid parasite retires to the deepest recesses between the limbs
and other external organs to avoid evaporation. The parasite moves
with a gliding motion, like the species of /lanaria, and also by fixing
the posterior extremity and extending the anterior part of the body
to its greatest length, and then abruptly detaching and drawing
forward the former, like the leeches. At other times it fixes itself
posteriorly, and waves the anterior portion of the body to and fro
through the water.
Attached to the branchial laminz of the King crab are frequently
observed ochreous or brownish, oval, compressed cysts, from 1{ to 2
lines long and 1-6th to 1 line broad, attached by a short pedicle at
one extremity, and unusually closely applied to the surfaces between
the branchial laminz, which are receptacles or ova? of the Ldelloura
parasitica. Occasionally the margin of the cysts is improved with a
fringe of short irregular, blackish filaments. Sometimes these cysts
exist in such numbers as to have the appearance of flaxseed sprinkled
between the branchial lamine.

Remarks.—The more it is extended the broader and thinner it
becomes, especially posteriorly. When free in water, it swims like
the eels, and in such cases, the broad surfaces of the body are more
or less vertical.

Body bright flesh-colored with fainter lateral margins, and a cen-
tral darker line inferiorily ; in transverse section oblong, convex
superiorly, flattened inferiorly ; when elongated, becomes cylindroid ;

OBSERVATIONS ON THE NATURAL HISTORY OF THE FAMILY OF
GORDIACE/E, SIEBOLD.
Our most common species has been confounded with the Gordius
aquaticus, L., of Europe, but a striking character at onces proves it
to be distinct. The caudal extremity of the female is trifurcated,
while that of the European species is blunt.** The length is from 4
to 12 inches. Of this species there are several varieties from differ-
ent localities, which may upon further comparison prove to be dis-
tinct species.
To this species the name Gordius varius was proposed.
A second species of Gordius was obtained by Professor Baird from
a spring in Hssex county, New York. It is very much more delicate
than the former, and from 5 to 7 inches long. ‘The female caudal
extremity is blunt. The male caudal extremity is bifurcate and
fringed with peculiar epidermoid appendages.
For this second species the name Gordius lineatus was proposed.
Dr. L,. also found several remarkable species of J/ermis, Dujardin.
Eleven specimens of one species were procured by Dr. Budd from
a ditch in New Jersey. These are yellowish white in color, and from
6 to 18 inches in length. To the species the name J/ermis elongata
was given.
A second species was found in a ditch near Philadelphia. It is
pure white in color, 8 inches long, and has a peculiar tubercular

6.4 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
thickening of the integument upon the caudal extremity. For this
species the name J/ermis crassicaudata was proposed.
Dr. L. further remarked that he had lately had an opportunity of
repeating his former investigations * upon the embryology of Gordius
varus.
The embryology of Gordius aquaticus, L., had been studied and
published by Gruby + before he had published his notes, but he did
not know it at the time, which he considered important, as the ob-
servations conducted in two parts of the world, though differing in
several points, were generally confirmatory of one another.
The perfect embryo of Gordius varius differs so much from the
parent that it is impossible to recognize the latter in the former.
This has two circles of protractile tentacule, each of six, and a pro-
tractile proboscis, not uncinate, however, as in the embryo of Gordius
aquaticus,{ no trace of which exists inthe parent. The body of the
embryo consists of two portions, and is distinctly annulated, while
the parent is simply hairlike in form, and has no trace of an annu-
lated integument. Gruby remarks he never saw the Gordius, ex-
cepting the embryo, shorter than 334 inches,§ so that between the
annulose, tentaculated embryo, in the Gordius varius the 1-466th of
an inch in length, and the parent of at least 334 inches, nothing
whatever is known of the history of the animal. Gordii have been
stated upon numerous and the most reliable authorities to have been
seen in the body of insects, so that from the embryo to the parent
there may probably be a series of forms in alternating generation,
entozoic and ectozoic, as numerous and unlike as has been observed
in the development of certain species of Distoma.
The Gordius varius is prolific in a very remarkable degree. A
female 9 inches in length, placed in a tumbler of water September
25, up to the present time has extruded a string of ova 49 inches in
length, and still actively continues the process.
[September, 1851. No. 86. See Bibliography. |
Dr. Leidy further stated as follows:
The female Gordius which he had mentioned at the last evening
as having extruded from September 25 up to that time a cord of
ova 49 inches in length had continued the process until Sunday
evening, October 7, up to which time it had expelled, in fragments

from a few lines to one foot in length, in all a cord g1 inches long,
in which he estimated there were over 6,000,000 ova. Dr. L. ex-
hibited the cord of ova preserved in alcohol, which was long and
white and resembled a piece of cotton thread.
[October, 1851. No. 87. See Bibliography. |
Dr. Leidy remarked the members probably recollected that a few
evenings since he had mentioned that it had been asserted by numer-
ous and good authorities that Gordiz had been observed within the
body of insects. He now exhibited a specimen of a Gordius and a
grasshopper preserved ina bottle of alcohol, which had been sent
to him by his friend, Dr. Budd, of Pemberton, N. J. The Gordius
Dr. Budd stated was seen to come out of the body of a grasshopper,
and in half an hour afterwards died. It is a different species from
those described a short time since. It is a female, about six inches
long by half a line in length, rigid, strongly marked by transverse
wrinkles and annuli, with the caudal extremity somewhat com-
pressed and obtuse. To the species he gave the name Gordius
robustus.
He also exhibited a species of J/ermis from Brazil, belonging to
the collection of the Academy. It is fourteen and a half inches
long and of yellowish brown color. Toit he gave the name J/er-
mus ferrugined.

1. Anelcodiscus Pellucidus, Weidy.
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 69
Body cylindroid, colorless, transparent ; anteriorly rounded, ob-
tuse ; posteriorly spreading into a cordiform disk for attachment.
Disk retractile; when retracted, the body becoming dilated oval in
the middle and the posterior part doubly intussuscepted.
Length 1-rooth inch ; breadth 1-roooth inch.
Ffabitation.—Parasitic within the intestine of S¢y/aria fossularis.
Remarks.—From the translucency of the last-mentioned worm, its
parasite may be seen within the intestine attached to the mucous
membrane by means of its posterior cordiform disk. While attached
it alternately retracts its body with a jerk, and then lengthens itself ;
in the former movement the posterior third of the body becoming
doubly intussuscepted, so as to have the appearance of a double articu-
lation. When detached the same movement takes place, but in that
of retraction the cordiform disk is entirely drawn within the animal’s
body. More details of this curious parasite I did not obtain, for
although I saw three, and removed them from the intestine of the
Stylaria, yet their movements were so active I could not study them
to advantage, and to quiet them I tried a minute portion of the vapour
of chloroform, which instantly killed them, but at the same moment
they underwent total destruction. Since then I have not been able
to examine others.

GONTRIBUTIONS TO HELMINTHOLOGY.
MICROSTOMUM? OERSTED. (EUSTOMUM.)
Body elongated, compressed, cylindroid, vibrillated, increasing
by transverse segmentation in pairs. Head continuous with the
body, furnished upon each side with a respiratory fovea. Mouth
antero-inferior ; intestinal canal produced anterior to the mouth in
the form of a ccecum ; cesophagus amphoraform, muscular, not pro-
tractile ; anus at first (after segmentation) open, afterwards becom-
ing closed. Ocelli none. Minute rhabdoceela inhabiting fresh
water.
This genus is the J/icrostomum of Oersted, if what I have ob-
served to be lateral respiratory foveze of the head are, according to
him and other authors, ocelli destitute of pigment.
In numerous individuals of what I have considered below to be
of three distinct species of the genus they were always observed to
be in a state of division by pairs, and the primary pair of segments

about their middle had already developed respiratory foveze and
were slightly indented preparatory to division before the first pair
were separated.
1. Microstomum (fustomum) Philadelphicum, Leidy.
Body linear, slightly attenuated posteriorly ; head conoidal, with
the apex surmounted by a small oval papilla ; tail obtusely rounded.
Respiratory fovea sub-hemispherical, placed at the base of the cone
of the head. Mouth oval, protractile ; cesophagus keg-shaped, in-
testine narrowed, cylindroid, dilated at the commencement ; color-
less, translucent, vibrillated, increasing by transverse segmentation,
always observed in the process of forming two segments.
Length 2-5ths line by 1-500th inch broad.
Flabitation.—Found in the water of marshes and ditches in the
neighborhood of Philadelphia.
2. Microstomum (F-ustomum) Variabile, Leidy.
Body broad, linear; anteriorly and posteriorly obtusely rounded.
Respiratory fovea, longitudinally oval, lateral. Intestine very broad ;
colorless, increasing by twos.
Length from 1-8oth to 1-24th of an inch by r-80oth to 1-4ooth
inch broad.
Flabitation.—With the preceding.
3. Microstomum (Eustomum) Caudatum, Leidy.
Body long, narrow, linear ; anteriorly obtusely rounded, posteriorly
ending in a narrow, blunt, elevated tail 1-4ooth inch long from the
position of the anus; increasing by twos, the tail of the anterior
segments projecting above and its whole length posterior to the head
of the succeeding segment.
Length 3-4ths to 14% lines; breadth 1-300th to 1-250th inch.
Flabitation.—With the preceding.

a state of segmentation, from which the species was first described,
preserved alone in a glass vessel with some confervee ; upon the oc-
currence of cold weather passed into the perfect condition as follows :
Body long, cylindroid, hyaline, permitting the ash-colored or
yellowish intestine to be seen through the integument, divided into
from 50 to 65 annulations, furnished with a distinct girdle posterior
to the third annulus from the mouth, which extends the breadth of
three annuli. Podal hooks in fasciculi of ro to 12. Setee commenc-

ing after the girdle, usually one, often two, upon each side of the
annuli. Head obtusely rounded and prolonged into a cylindroid,
very movable, digitiform, transversely wrinkled proboscis. Caudal
annulus terminating in two short lobes.
Length 3-4ths to 1 inch; breadth 1-5thto 1-4thof aline. Length
of proboscis 1-20th inch.
Remarks upon the Habits.—When at rest the worm lies with the
anterior four-fifths of the body upon the surface of the mud at the
bottom of the water, with the tail fifth buried. It is very active in
its movements. It also constructs tubes of mud. It is hermaphro-
dite, and copulates in the same manner as the earth worms.
In a number of individuals I observed bunches of spermatozoa,
and in several of the same from three to five nearly completely formed
ova placed just posterior to the girdle. The eggs when extruded
were attached to the inside of the vessel in which the worms were
kept. They consisted of an oblong quadrilateral translucent, whitish,
papyraceous web, enclosing a light amber-colored, bottle-like case,
with an open neck, and the body containing white globular mass,
the true egg.
The perfect worm after living about two months died. Some of
the ova several weeks after their extrusion were observed to have the
young almost perfected, and these a few days after their escape pre-
sented the following characters :
Body cylindroid, divided into 35 annulations, each with a pair of
fasciculi of four or five hooks ; posterior to the first three also pro-
vided on each side with one or two sete. Tail bilobed. Head as in
the parent. No girdle; no indication of division, and no apparent
developing annuli at the tailend. Length 2 lines.

Dr. Leidy stated that the nodular bodies imbedded in the tails and
fins of the fishes presented by Dr. Webber, of Charlestown, N. H..,
were most probably indurated entozoon sacs. Many ponds and lakes
contain a minute worm, resembling in general form a tadpole, be-
longing to the genus Cevcavia. The species, after living for some
time in the water, attach themselves to fishes and other living animals, °
and, after losing the tail, form for themselves cysts in the integu-
ments, and subsequently become transformed into a parasitic worm
of the genus Distoma.

robust one on each side, are tipped with black, as if to be subservient
to the impressions of light. Its sete are quite simple, as represented
in figure 47, and are about the fifth of a line in length. The podal
spines consist of a long style ending in a bowl, like that of a spoon,
as represented in figure 48.
For the new genus, of which the worm just described is the type,
I have adopted the Indian name Narragansett, being that of the
bay on the shores of which the animal was first discovered.

I found the young of this species at Point Judith. It had the
appearance of that of Zerebella nebulosa, Mont., represented in fig.
aepl..3, of M. Hdward’s Rech. Anat. et Phys., etc. . The single
specimen obtained was three lines long. There were twelve tentae-
ulz twenty-five eyes around the head, and twenty-eight segments

Spirorbis Spirillum, Lamarck. On Chondrus crispus, Point Judith.
Torquea, Leidy. Body cylindrical, narrowed at the extremities.
Tentacule numerous, attached laterally to the head, capable of very
great extension and contraction by the passage to and fro of blood
corpuscles from the cavity of the body. Eyes none. Sete in two
rows, three to twelve in a fasciculus, extremities lanceolate. Podal
hooks in two rows, short, from twelve to forty in each transverse
series, supported at the edge of a laminar process stiffened with fine,
simple setze.
Torquea E-ximia, Leidy. (Pl. XI, figs. 51,52). Body soft, blood
red. Tentaculee very numerous, capable of very great extension
by the propulsion into them of the bright red corpuscles, with which
the cavity of the body is filled. Seta anteriorly in fasciculi of
twelve, posteriorly from three to six. Podal hooks commencing at
the eighth segment, from twelve to forty in each series. Worm
half an inch to an inch in length, with from forty to sixty segments.
Obtained from mud and sand below low-tide mark. Point Judith.
This worm is remarkable for its softness, its blood red color, its
numerous extensible tentacles, and its numerous podal hooks. It is
capable of slowly progressing by means of its tentacule. In the
process, these are extended by having forced into them the bright
red corpuscles which fill the visceral cavity of the body ; they then
attach themselves by their extremities to the surface upon which the
animal is lying, and by subsequent contraction the body is dragged
after them.

Dr. Leidy exhibited the heart of a dog, in which the right auricle,
right ventricle, and the pulmonary artery and its branches were
literally stuffed with worms. Minute worms have long been known
circulating with the blood, and termed //ematozoa. _ About five years
since Dr. I. described, in volume 5 of the Proceedings, the worm
exhibited this evening as Ai/aria Canis cordis. ‘The males measure
five inches in length, the females ten inches.
Two hearts were brought to Dr. L. by Mr. Jos. Jones, of Georgia ;
one, that of a pointer, had in it five worms; the other, that of a cur,
was the one exhibited. It is probable that both venz were also
filled, as the portions of those vessels that remained were blocked
up. The animals did not die from the presence of the entozoa, but
were killed in the course of some experiments. The cur was ema-
ciated and voracious, restless when awake, and disturbed in its sleep.

Four specimens were found in a large cream-colored liver, which
had been left upon a stall in our fish market. I could not ascertain
the species of fish from which it was obtained, but I suspect it to
be the halibut, /7ippoglossus vulgaris. Each worm was closely coiled
up at the bottom of a long clavate sac, which was composed of three
distinct membranes. The first membrane adhered to the structure
of the liver*in which it was embedded, beneath the peritoneum.
The second membrane was transparent, crisp, and shining. The
third one was milk-white, soft, and contractile, and it presented a
delicate, tortuous white opaque line extending the length on each
side. After opening the third membrane, beneath water, the worm
gradually crept out of its own accord.

five of the Filaria just described. In the other specimen the right
auricle and ventricle and the pulmonary artery in its ramifications
through the lungs are literally stuffed with Filariz. A portion of
the blood of this dog, given to me by Mr. Jones, contains a great
number of the young of the Filaria.
In relation to the symptoms which accompanied the presence of
these worms in the heart of the dogs while living, Mr. Jones has
furnished the following notes: The heart containing the five worms
was taken from a male pointer dog whose appetite was voracious
and insatiable, and notwithstanding he was abundantly supplied with
food, he remained in a very lean condition. The heart and lungs
containing great numbers of worms was from a cur»dog, who was
always so thin as to resemble a skeleton, and it was impossible to
benefit his condition with the most liberal supply of food. Both
dogs were of an exceedingly restless disposition. They did not die
in consequence of the presence of the Filarize, but were killed in
the course of some physiological experiments.

Nine specimens were contained within two globular sacs of the
gastric mucous membrane of the albatross, Diomedea exulans, the
preparation having been obtained in the South Atlantic by Dr.
W.S. W. Ruschenberger, U.S. N. The sacs also contained each
a brown globular body about 3% lines in diameter, divided by lines
into quarters, intersected by transverse corrugations. At one pole
of these enigmatic bodies was an elliptical aperture, and at the oppo-
site pole a small conical tail-like appendage. One of the bodies being
cut open, exhibited no regularity of structure. The Filarize were
situated between the globular bodies and the walls of the sacs con-
taining them.

extremities. Head convex ; mouth round, unarmed. Caudal ex-
tremity of male incurved. Tail short, obtusely conical. Length of
female 4 inches, breadth 1-3d of a line; length of male 2 inches,
breadth one-fifth of a line.
Five specimens were obtained by Prof. Baird from the abdominal
cavity of Sturnella ludoviciana.
Two female Filariz having the same form as above, 5 inches in
length and '% a line in breadth, were obtained by Prof. Baird from
the abdominal cavity of Colaptes auratus.

breadth, which I had preserved in a large vessel of water, extruded
from between its caudal lobes a cord of ova, broken into segments,
the aggregate length of which was g1 inches, and breadth 1-2o0th

eggs, and in the length of 1-goth of an inch 26 eggs, so that by
simple calculation : 70 * 26 X 40 X 91 = the whole number of eggs
deposited is 6,624,800.

Eleven individuals (J/ermis elongata, Pr. A. N.S., v, 263), of a
dusky yellowish white, and from 6 to 18 inches long by 1-6th to
1-3d of a line broad, were obtained by Dr. Charles H. Budd in the
early spring season in a ditch emptying into the Rancocas creek,
New Jersey. Six specimens, opaque white in color, from 8 to 15
inches in length, were obtained by Samuel Powell, Esq., in digging
in the earth mould of his garden at Newport, R.I One specimen,
of acream color, 22 inches long and 1-3d of a line broad, was ob-
tained by Dr. William Gibson from a rivulet in Philadelphia county.
I found four specimens of a brownish white, from 9 to 16 inches
long and from 1-6th to 1-4th of a line broad, in pools of fresh water
among the rocks of the seashore of Point Judith, R. I. One speci-
men (J/ermis crassicaudata, Pr. A. N.S., v, 263), opaque white and
8 inches long, I found in a ditch below Philadelphia. A specimen
(Mermis ferruginea, Pr. A. N.S., v, 275), from Brazil, contained
in the collection of the Academy, is brown in color and measures
14% inches long. A cream-colored individual, 4 inches long and
1-5th of a line broad, was obtained from an apple by Major Le
Conte, who, with great probability, supposed it had issued from the
larva of a lepidopterous insect in the core of the fruit. Professor
Agassiz sent me a specimen, translucent yellowish white in color
and 9% inches long and 1-5th of a line wide, obtained from the
abdomen of Orchelium gracile, Harris. lastly, I have obtained
specimens very frequently from Locusta carolina of the meadows
below Philadelphia, and occasionally from the earth and ditches in
the same locality. From one to six of the worms occupy the body
of a single insect, closely coiled among the viscera, from the head to
the end of the abdomen. The worms are opaque white and measure
from 3 to 15 inches in length and from 1-6th to 1-4th of a line in
breadth. When the grasshoppers infested with these parasites are
bruised the worms creep out and penetrate into the earth, as I have
satisfied myself by careful observation. In alcohol the J47ervmis of
the grasshopper assumes in time a bright yellow hue.

Dr. Leidy also directed the attention of the members to several
shells of the oyster and clam (Ostrvea virginiana and Venus merce-
naria) much perforated, which are common on the ocean shore,
where they are noticed by all visitors. Dr. lL. had for a long time
suspected that the perforations were due to some molluscous animal
or a worm, and he had frequently sought for them. The last sum-
mer, in dredging, in company with Mr. Ashmead and Prof. Baird,
on an old oyster bed at Great Egg Harbor, New Jersey, a large
number of these perforated shells were obtained, and all of them
were observed to be occupied by a sulphur yellow sponge of the
genus Cliona. This boring sponge forms an extensive system of
galleries between the outer and inner layers of the shells, and pro-
trudes through the perforations of the latter tubular processes, from
one to two lines long and one-half to three-fourths of a line wide.
The tubes are of two kinds, the most numerous being cylindrical
and expanded at the orifice in a corolla form, with their margin thin,
translucent, entire, veined with more opaque lines, and with the
throat bristling with silicious spiculee. The second kind of tubes
are comparatively few, about as one to thirty of the other, and are
shorter, wider, not expanded at the orifice, and the throat unob-
structed with spiculz. Some of the second variety of tubes are con-
stituted of a confluent pair, the throat of which bifurcates at the
bottom. Both kinds of the tubes are slightly contractile, and under
irritation may gradually assume the appearance of superficial wart-
like eminences within the perforations of the shell occupied by the
sponge. Water obtains access to the interior of the latter through
the more numerous tubes, and is expelled in quite active currents
from the wider tubes.
108 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
In structure the sponge is composed of an intertexture of granular
matter and pin-like silicious spicula. Several species of C/iona are
indicated by European naturalists, but are not characterized with
sufficient detail to determine whether the one above indicated is
distinct or not from them.
Dr. Ll. further adds, it might appear only of scientific interest to
observe a structure so low as the sponge is classified in the organic
kingdom, endowed with the power of penetrating such dense and
hard bodies as the shell of the clam and oyster, but he suspected
that the agency of the boring sponge was a highly important one
in the sequence of natural phenomena, as it is a means by which
dead shells are rapidly decomposed to be dissolved in the ocean
water, where they may again serve as the elements of construction
of the habitations of the rising generations of molluscous animals.
In confirmation of this view Dr. L. stated that an extensive bed of
oysters, which had been planted by Mr. Thomas Beasley, at Great
Egg Harbor, and which was in excellent condition three years since,
had been subsequently destroyed by an accumulation of mud. The
shells of the dead oysters, which were of large size and in great
number, in the course of two years have been so completely riddled
by the boring C/iona that they may be crushed with the utmost
ease, whereas without the agency of this sponge the dead shells
might have remained in their soft muddy bed, devoid of sand and
pebbles, undecomposed perhaps even for a century.

Dr. Leidy made the following observations on entozoa found in
the Nazades.
He had observed a curious parasite allied to Aspidogaster concht-
cola, infesting Anodonta fluviatilis and Anodonta lacustris, within the
cleft of the upper branchial cavity, adhering to the outer surface of
the renal organ and the contiguous margin of the foot. The new
parasite, for which the name of Cotyv/aspis insignis was proposed, is
from '% a line to r line long, curved funnel-shaped, with the base
forming an oval ventral disk provided with an outer circle and an
inner row of acetabula 29 in number. ‘The animal is provided with
distinct eyes, while Aspidogaster, in accordance with its being im-
prisoned in the pericardium of the Natades, is blind.

Dr. Leidy called the attention of the members to a bottle contain-
ing numerous specimens of a large species of Gordius discovered by
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. [109
Dr. Wm. A. Hammond, 525 miles west of Fort Riley, Kansas Ter-
ritory. Dr. Hammond states they were found in a pond in great
numbers, in company with Szvedon. They swam actively forward
an inch or two beneath the surface of the water, and occasionally
lifted the anterior end even above the latter.
The collection contains 24 females and the same number of males.
The females are cylindrical, ight brown of various shades, shining
iridescent ; anterior extremely narrowed ; head surrounded with a
dark-brown ring ; tail obtuse, slightly compressed, with a terminal
genital pore. The males are darker colored than the females ; tail
extremity more or less spirally enrolled, with the extremity bifur-
cated ; forks divergent, incurved, smooth, connected at base ante-
riorly by a crescentic fold, in advance of which is the genital pore ;
head as in the female.
The females measure from 10 inches in length by 1-3d of a line
thick, to two feet 6 inches in length and 3-5ths of a line thick ; the
males 8 inches in length by 1-4th of a line thick, to 2 feet 2 inches
in length by 2-5ths of a line thick.
Dr. Leidy next directed the attention.of the members to a bottle
containing seven specimens of the larva of a species of Oestrus or
bot-fly. They were obtained by Dr. Hammond from a pouched rat,
Thomomys borealis, at Bridger’s Pass, on the summit of the Rocky
mountains, July, 1857. Dr. Hammond found the rat panting on
the road side, without power of escaping. The bots were found
situated beneath the skin of the back, belly, and thigh.
The body of these larvee is oblong oval, compressed, incurved ;
head minute, composed of a transverse pair of papillary eminences,
each supporting two minute ocelli, and having projecting from
beneath, forward and downward, a pair of strong black hooks.
Spiracular laminze trilobed and marked with vermicular lines.
Segments of the body closely covered with discoidal corneous
tubercles, of which the anterior ones have their posterior border
projecting and dentated.
The smallest is light yellowish brown, mee as they become larger
they assume a darker tint. The largest are black, hard, shining,
and remarkably shagreened in appearance.
Length of the smallest larva 5 lines, breadth 3 lines, thickness 2%
lines ; length of largest 9 lines, breadth 51% lines, thickness 3 lines.

river, and was interesting from its being more nearly allied to marine
forms than any other known fresh-water species. It lives in tubes
of mud, and is about a line in length. The body is divided into
twelve annuli, including the head, which is cup-shaped; has two
eyes, and supports on each side a process provided with seventeen
cylindrical ciliated arms. The rings, except the head, are provided
with four rows of bristles and two rows of podal hooks. The bris-
tles are from four to six in a bunch, those anteriorly having a fal-
cate extremity and those posteriorly being whip-like. The anterior
hooks are in a series of five, and have a long handle with a lance-
like extremity. The posterior hooks are from fifteen to twenty in
a series, and have a long handle with the extremity expanded and
serrated on one side. It appears to be most nearly allied to the
marine genus /aéricia. He proposed for it the name J/anayunkia
speciosa, from the Indian name of the river in which it was first ,
discovered.

Dr. Leidy, by permission of the Academy, communicated the fact
that about one-half of the chrysalides of the canker-worm (/xdalimia),
which had recently proved so destructive to the foliage of our shade
trees, were infected by two species of Ichneumon. One of the latter
is comparatively large ; anda single individual occupies the body of
a canker-worm chrysalis. The other species is minute, and numer-
ous individuals occupy the interior of a chrysalis.

Dr. Leidy exhibited a drawing of the Achinococcus hominis, com-
monly known under the name of hydatid. Thespecimen from which
it was taken was found ina tumor seated in the muscles of the right
iliac region, which had been supposed to consist of impacted feeces

sites were still alive. None of the injection, however, had come
into contact with it, as it had no direct communication with the
body. The chinococcus is the larval form of a tape-worm. Dr.
Leidy described its mode of propagation and of locating itself in the
body.

Dr. Leidy exhibited a minnow, caught in the Schuylkill, having
disease of the scales of the upper part of the head and about the
orbit. The scales were dilated, and filled with delicate organic
cells, much resembling carcinomatous cells. They were certainly
not confervoid or fungous, but were purely pathological, and thus
of interest as a specimen of diseased formation in a fish. Disease
in the inferior animals, and even in plants, is deserving of study by
medical men, since it may throw light upon the nature of disease in
man.

Dr. Leidy called the attention of the members to the stomach of a
mink (JZustela vison), containing a large number of worms. The
latter had caused much thickening of the walls of the stomach, in
which the anterior extremity of their body deeply penetrated. The
worm is a species, heretofore unnoticed, of the genus Chetracanthus.
Its name and characters were given as follows :
Cheiracanthus Socialis, Weidy. Body cylindrical, posteriorly ob-
tuse, anus subterminal. Integument transparent, with distinct cir-
cular muscles. Head discrete, discoidal, furnished with transverse
rows of recurved hooks. Mouth bilabiate ; cesophagus clavate, red ;
intestine dusky brown. Ovaries and oviducts, or testes and vasa
deferentia, very tortuous and white. Anterior portion of the body
thickly covered with alternating transverse rows of minute plates,
of which those most anterior are tridentate, the succeeding ones
bidentate, and the last ones are simple and gradually become obso-
lete. Posterior extremity of the male attenuated, spirally contorted,
and ending in a horseshoe-like border with four red papillae on each
side.
Length of female 15 lines; breadth 3-4ths of a line; length of
male 12 lines, breadth % a line.

Dr. Leidy exhibited a drawing of the worm described by him at
a former meeting as J/anayunkia speciosa.
Dr. Leidy remarked that perhaps some of the members present
would recollect he had. some time since (Proc. 1858, p. 90) de-
scribed a curious fresh-water worm, WJanayunkia speciosa, from the
River Schuylkill. It was observed that it appeared to be most
nearly allied to the marine genus /advicia. During the last summer
Dr. L. in company with Mr. Powell sought for the latter at New-
port, R. I. They found it in very great abundance at the foot of
the cliffs bathed by the ocean. In its curved tubes of tenacious
mud, adhering to stones and with its projecting tentacles, it very
much resembles a ciliated polyp, especially /amatella.
The worm is about 1% lines long, demi-cylindroid, with 12
annuli, of which all except the first are setigerous. The cephalic
annulus has a short proboscis, is provided with one or two pairs of
eyes, and supports 6 arms with about 80 ciliated tentacles. The
succeeding 7 or 8 annuli are provided on each side with fascicles of
from 5 to 7 setee and as many podal spines. The posterior 3 annuli
are provided on each side with fascicles of 2 setee and from 12 to 15
short podal spines. Anterior setze terminating in a linear lanceolate
blade ; posterior setz aristate. Anterior spines terminating in a
hook, which is dentate on its convex border ; posterior spines ex-
panded at the extremity, which is dentate on the convex border.
Caudal annulus with a pair of eyes.
Eyes exist in the cephalic and caudal annuli, also in the young
worm. From the want of a good description and figures of the
European species of Faérvicia, it was not to be determined whether
the American species was different from it.

Dr. Leidy exhibited specimens of a 7richina found in the muscles

specimens of a dipterous larvee from man.

Dr. Leidy called the attention of the members to a specimen of the
singular body called //yalonema mirabilis, recently presented by Dr.
Ruschenberger. It is the second specimen obtained within a short
time for the Academy. Both are from Japan. The specimen of
Hyalonema exhibited consists of a twisted cord of siliceous spiculze
over a foot in length and about half an inch in diameter. Twisted
around it is a coriaceous membrane with wart-like eminences, be-
longing to a zoophyte, which Dr. L. regards with M. Valenciennes
as parasitic. The cord of siliceous spiculee Dr. J. E. Gray supposes
to be the axis of the zoophyte, but Dr. L. with M. Valenciennes
views it as belonging to a sponge. This latter view is apparently
confirmed by a specimen of a sponge, in the cabinet of the Academy,
from Santa Cruz, presented by the late Dr. Griffith. This sponge
is an oblong oval mass, about four inches long, surmounted at one
extremity with a corona of twisted cords of siliceous spicule about
two inches in length. These spiculz are very similar in structure
to those of the Hyalonema, mainly differing in size.

Dr. Leidy stated that he had just received a short notice from
Prof. Leuckart, of Giessen, in which he mentions the results of some
experiments with 7vichina spiralis. Waving fed dogs with human
flesh containing Trichinz, he found that in a week or less the worms
completed their development, but without assuming the form of a
Tricocephalus or Strongylus. Within the intestine of the dog the
generative apparatus, together with the eggs and embryos, were fully
developed in the Trichinze. The embryos rapidly passed away with
the excrement of the dog. A pig, having been feed with a dog’s
intestine containing fully developed Trichinze, was killed and dis-
sected on the 3d of March, and exhibited in the muscles millions of
Trichinzee. From these facts it is rendered probable that embryos
of Trichinze voided by dogs find their way into the human stomach
through the food or drink, and subsequently burrow into the tissues
of the body.

a dozen cream-colored tumors, from the size of a pea to that of a
nutmeg. The tumors examined microscopically appear to have the

structure of sof¢ cancer, as usually described, being composed of large
nucleated cells in great variety of form. Dr..L. stated that, after
having dined on part of the turkey, on making inquiry for the miss-
ing liver, the cook had given information that in consequence of the
‘‘ white lumps in it, it had not been cooked.’’ On procuring it from
the slops, it was found to be in the condition described. Dr. L. took
the opportunity of expressing the opinion that an unnecessary degree
of alarm had been created in the community in relation to what were
considered to be diseased meats, especially such as are infested with
parasites. While he most decidedly recommended the avoidance of
the flesh of diseased or unwholesome animals, he thought that all
parasites would be destroyed by thorough cooking.
In answer to a question from one of the members, whether he had
noticed Trichina in pork, Dr. L. observed that he had been the first
to discover this parasite in the hog, the discovery having been made
twenty years ago, as may be seen by referring to the Proceedings of
this Academy for October, 1846, pages 107, 108. ‘This notice had
attracted the attention of the German helminthologists, as proved
by reference to Diesing’s Systema Helminthum, vol. 11, page 114,
and Leuckart, Untersuchungen vy. Trichina spiralis, pages 6, 18.
{ March, 1866. |
The circumstances under which the Trichina had been first de-
tected in pork were on an occasion when Dr. L. had dined on part
of the infested meat. While eating a slice of pork he noticed some
minute specks, which recalled to mind the Trichina spots seen in the
muscles of a human subject only a few days previously. Preserving
the remainder of the slice, on examination of it microscopically he
found it fullof 777china spiralis, but the parasites were all dead from
the heat of cooking. In conclusion, Dr. L. observed that all meats
were liable to be infested with parasites, but that there was no danger
from infection if the meats were thoroughly cooked, for he had sat-
isfied himself by experiment that entozoa are destroyed when sub-
mitted to the temperature of boiling water.

NOTICE OF SOME AMERICAN LEECHES.
Having been invited by Mr. R. H. Lamborn, secretary and treas-
urer of the Mississippi and Lake Superior Railroad Company, to
join an excursion to Minnesota and Lake Superior the last summer,
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 11g
during the trip I had the opportunity of making many interesting
observations in natural history. The many lakes of Minnesota are
rich in mollusca, annelides, &c. Among the annelides, besides an
abundance of the ordinary American medicinal leecht Wirudo decora,
I noticed one which struck me from its general resemblance to a
variety of the European medicinal leech, H. medicinalis. One of
the gentlemen in company with us, Mr. Clark, allowed me to try
upon him its disposition to bite, but I did not succeed in getting the
animal to do so. Upon examination of the leech, I find it belongs
to a different genus from //irudo, apparently to the genus Az/asto-
mum. Its characters are as follows:
Aulastomum Lacustris,n.s. Body cylindroid, compressed, nar-
nowing anteriorly, obtuse at the sides (in movement more cylindroid
or less flattened, and quite obtuse laterally compared with Airudo
decora in the same condition). Color throughout olive green (with
more of a yellowish hue than in the dorsal green of //. decora),
closely maculated everywhere with confluent spots of a darker hue
of the same color. Ninety-two annuli, exclusive of the lips, of
uniform width, smooth. Upper lip half ovate, obtuse ; lower lip
narrow. Eyes ten, eight in the upper lip, the last pair separated
by an annulus from the others. Mouth obliquely terminal, large.
Acetabulum subbasilar, ventral, sessile, circular. Anus dorsal,
above the acetabulum. Male aperture in the 24th annulus (but ap-
parently between the 23d and 24th). Female aperture in the 29th
annulus (apparently between the 28th and 29th). Csophagus
capacious, extending to about the 22d annulus, with 12 folds. Jaws
three, small, when at rest included in pouches formed by an eversion
of the mucousmembrane. ‘Teeth 12 in number to each jaw, bilobed
at base. Length 4 to 5 inches, breadth 5 lines posteriorly ; acetab-
ulum 2 lines in diameter.
Var. An individual of lighter olive green than the former had
black maculz replacing the darker green ones, which were also more
distinct and fewer. .
Specimens described from Twin Lake, Minnesota.—In the sum-
mer of 1865 I saw several leeches at Sault Ste. Marie, in Lake Supe-
rior, which, so far as I can remember, were of the same species.
At the edge of the shore I also saw some cocoons which I supposed
to belong to the same animal. ‘They were ochreous yellow, oval,
about 4 or 5 lines in diameter ; the surface impressed with concave
pentagonal and hexagonal pits. From the angles of the margins of
the latter projected branching processes curling at the ends.
Notwithstanding our familiarity with the American medicinal
I20 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
leech, its long and frequent employment in the medical profession,
and the vast numbers which have been brought to notice, it has
been so imperfectly described that, in the excellent Systema Hel-
minthum of my late esteemed friend, Dr. Diesing, of Vienna, it has
been placed with the ‘* Bdellidea species genere penitus dubiz.’’ I
therefore take the present opportunity of indicating its characters
more fully. It agrees most nearly with the diagnosis of the genus
flivudo, of which the //. medicinalis is the type, but nevertheless
possesses peculiarities perhaps rather more than specific. Its char-
acters, generic and specific, are as follows:
Flirudo Decora. Say: Long’s Expedit., vol. ii, 1842, Append.,
268. Moquin Tandon: Monog. Hirud., 1846, 344. Diesing : Syst.
Helm., i, 1850, 474. Wood and Bache: United States Dispensatory.
Body elongated, compressed cylindroid, narrowing anteriorly,
laterally sub-acute ; in motion convex above, flat below, with the
margins compressed, thin, acute, and somewhat wavy ; composed of
from go to 94 annuli, which are uniform and smooth. Head con-
tinuous with the body. Mouth obliquely terminal, bilabiate ; the
upper lip prominent, semiovate, obtuse, or from contraction of the
lip emarginate ; lower lip forming the inferior portion of the first
annulus; the lips together acting as an acetabulum ovoid or obcor-
date in form. Eyes 10, arranged in horseshoe form, the anterior 8
above the upper lip, the posterior pair separated from the others by
the first annulus. Acetabulum subbasilar, ventral, sessile, circular.
Auus dorsal, above the acetabulum. Male aperture perforating the
25th annulus, with the lips more or less prominent. Female aper-
ture between the 29th and goth annuli. A group of four papillze
situated back of the latter on the 34th to the 36th annuli inclusive.
Jaws three, semicircular, laterally compressed, furnished with 55
teeth, which have an acute curved summit and an expanded bilobed
base. (Hsophagus short and narrow compared with that of Az/as-
tomun, furnished with 6 longitudinal folds, of which three coarse
ones descend from the jaws and three narrow ones are intermediate.
Color.—Dorsal surface olive green, with a median irregular band
and a lateral line of darker hue of the same kind ; a median row of
reddish brown dots, and a lateral row of black dots. Ventral sur-
face reddish brown, extending slightly above the lateral margin,
devoid of spots, or more or less maculated with black. Acetabulum
colored like the back above and the belly below.
In the genus /Yivuwdo, as characterized by Diesing (Syst Helm., i,
465), and to which he assigns 9 recognized species, the jaws are
furnished with from 60 to 70 teeth, and the male aperture is situated
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. I2I
between the 24th and 25th segments. Moquin Tandon (Monog.
Hirud., 1846, 326) likewise assigns the latter as the position of the
male aperture in the genus //7rudo.
The position of the generative apertures in /7. decora often appear
more or less discolored or of a dull purplish hue, and the same is
the case with the group of papillae back of them. The latter do
not exist in the medicinal leech of Europe. They are quite con-
spicuous in ours. I have suspected that they were provided for
the adherence of individuals in sexual intercourse, and this view is
confirmed by Mr. S. J. Moore, the well known professional leecher
and bleeder of this city. Mr. Moore informs me that in copulo two
individuals adhere in the position of the papillee and make two turns
of a spiral upon each other.
The red and black spots of the back contain from 20 to 22 in each
row.
Length up to 7 inches by 8 lines in breadth posteriorly, and the
acetabulum 3 lines in diameter.
[October, 1868. |
Prof. Leidy directed attention to a specimen of a sponge which
had been for many years in the Museum of the Academy and had
been presented by the late Dr. R. E. Griffith, who obtained it in
the Island of Santa Cruz, W. I. It is especially interesting from
its relationship with that most beautiful of all known sponges, the
Euplectella aspergillum, and apparently also to that enigmatic body,
the Hyalonema Sieboldii of Japan. Specimens of both these were
also exhibited; a beautiful one of the former, from the Philip-
pines, presented to the Academy by Joseph Henry Craven. Sev-
eral specimens of the /yva/onema, presented by Drs. Ruschenberger
and Sinclair, consist of a twisted fasciculus or rope of long, coarse,
translucent siliceous threads, partially twisted with a brown verru-
cose membrane or bark. When the first specimen was presented
to the Academy, in 1860 (Pr. A. N. S., 1860, 85), Prof. Leidy, as
curator, reported it as a part of a sponge with a parasitic polyp upon
it. One of the specimens may have some significance as to the rela-
tion of the rope of spicules and its polyp covering. It has attached
two shark eggs and part of the tendril-like cords of another. The
tendrils clasp the rope, and are also partly invested with the polyp
crust. In the complete condition the Wya/onema fasciculus appears
always to be associated at one end with a sponge mass. Originally
described by Dr. R. E. Gray, the fasciculus was viewed as the
axis of a coral, of which the verrucose bark formed part, the warts
I22 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
constituting the polyps; and he supposed the fasciculus to grow as
a parasite from the sponge, frequently seen in specimens attached
to one of its extremities. This still appears to be the view of Dr.
Gray as announced in recent volumes of the Proceedings of the
Zoological Society, etc.
Dr. Bowerbank views the siliceous rope, with its warty invest-
ment and the sponge mass at one end, altogether as the elements of a
sponge. The warts or polyps of Dr. Gray he regards as the oscules
of the sponge.
Schultze, in an elaborate memoir (Die Hyalonemen), accompanied
by beautiful plates representing the complete //ya/onema, as the
result of his investigations determines the sponge mass and project-
ing siliceous rope to be altogether the elements of the sponge, and
the warty investment of the rope to belong to a polyp, to which he
gives the name of Polythoa fatua. Inthe crusts or individual polyps
he detected the arms filled with nettling cells.
Brandt views the siliceous rope and its investment as a polyp, and
the sponge mass at one extremity as a parasite invading, ultimately
to destroy the polyp.
Lastly, among the discordant views, Ehrenberg looks upon the
siliceous rope as an ‘‘artificial product of Japanese industry.’’
Prof. L. continued, I shall not discuss this extraordinary differ-
ence of opinion among experts, but must confess that I view most
favorably the theory that the sponge mass and the siliceous rope
together constitute the sponge /Yya/onema, while the warty crust of
the rope constitutes a parasitic compound polyp, the Polythoa fatua
of Schultze.
The sponge from Santa Cruz, in its body and projecting fasciculi
of siliceous threads, reminds one of the Hyalonema sponge, with its
siliceous rope, but the structure of the threads of the former more
nearly resembles those of the anchor threads of Euplectella. It is
evidently a different sponge from either of those just named, and
may be called Pheronema.
The body of the sponge is oblong ovoidal, with the narrower end
upward, and with one side more prominent than the other. The lower
extremity is rather cylindroid and rounded truncate. The upper ex-
tremity is conical, with a truncate apex presenting a large circular
orifice. This is about 4 lines in diameter, and is the exit of a canal
which descends in the axis of the sponge for almost half its depth,
and then appears to divide into several branches. The sides of the
sponge form thick dense walls to the cylindrical canal, which is of
uniform diameter before its division.
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 123
In its present condition the sponge is of a light-brown hue. Its
surface exhibits an intricate interlacement of stellate, siliceous
spiculze, including a tissue of finer spiculeze of the same character,
the whole associated by the dried remains of the softer sponge tissues.
More or less fine sand, especially at the lower end of the sponge,
appears to be introduced as an element of structure.
From the lower end of the sponge there projects a number of dis-
tinct or separate tufts of siliceous spicule, looking like tufts of
blonde human hair. In the specimens there are 15 tufts projecting
around two-thirds of the extremity of the sponge, but the remain-
ing third of the extremity of the latter exhibits about ro orifices,
from which as many additional tufts appear to have been extracted.
Length of the body of the sponge 4% inches ; diameter at middle
22 lines, at lower end 15 and 17 lines, at upper end 8 lines. Length
of tufts of spicule 2 inches. The coarser stellate spicules of the
surface of the sponge in general have 5 rays, of which 4 are irregu-
larly cruciform, while the fifth projects at a right angle to the others
towards the interior of the sponge. The rays of the continuous
crosses form together a lattice work on the surface of the sponge,
and the intervals are covered by the rays of the finer spiculee, which
also in general have a five-rayed stellate character. The finer tissue
in the interior of the sponge, seen through the lattice work of the
surface, contains a multitude of spicules which differ from the
others only in their minute forms. Some of the largest stellate
spicules on the surface of the sponge have a stretch of three-fourths
of an inch.
The spicules of the tufts projecting from the sponge are two or
three inches in length and vary in diameter. They become attenu-
ated towards both extremities, but especially that inserted into the
sponge mass. Starting from the latter, they are at first smooth,
then finely tuberculate, the tubercles gradually become converted
into well marked recurved prickles or hooks, and finally the spicules
end ina pair of longer hooks, recalling to mind the arms of an
anchor. ‘The spicules bear a near resemblance to those at the lower
extremity of Auplectella, but have only two instead of four hooks at
the end. In the specimen but few of the spicules present the com-
plete character as described, most of them apparently having been
broken.
The object of the tufts of spicules, with their recurved prickles
and anchor-like free extremities, in Pheronema would appear to be to
maintain the position or preserve the anchorage of the sponge in its
ocean home, and perhaps in the living animal they are incessantly
124 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
produced as occasion may require, just as a Mytilus or a Pinna
renews and attaches its threads of byssus to secure its position.
The siliceous spicules of Pheronema are composed, as in sponges
generally, of concentric layers, and exhibit a delicate tubular axis.
A spicula from one of the tufts measured as follows:
Spread of the anchor 1-roth of a line ; shank of the anchor 1-30th
of a line; prickled portion of shaft 1-4oth of a line; shaft where
thickest and without prickles 1-18th of a line, thinning out to the
inserted end where it was not more than 1-300th of a line.
The species I propose to dedicate to my wife under the name of
Pheronema anne.

Prof. Leidy stated that during the last summer he had made some
further observations on U/ynatella, a genus of ciliated polyps of the
family Pedicellinide, discovered by him some years ago (Pr. Ac.
Nat. Sc., 1851, 321 ; 1854, 191) in the Schuylkill river. It is found
abundantly below the dam at Fairmount, adhering to stones and
rocks, on the sides and under part, not in contact with the ground.
Occasionally it is observed attached to the shell of the living Uo
complanatus and Melania virginica and less frequently to the stem of
Schollera graminea and the leaves of Ilallisneria spiralis. In the
locality named, on the rocks, there may be observed, in association
with Urnatella, the following animals: Spongilla fragilis ; Limnias
ceratophylli, usually abundant and in compound bunches ; Cothurnia
pusilla, parasitic on Uvnatella and Limnias,; Hydra carnea, Ag.,
Paludicella elongata, Plumatella vesicularis, and the worm J/anayunkia
speciosa, etc.

Prof. Leidy next made some remarks on the family of the Vin-
egar-eels, the substance of which was as follows: The number of
species and genera of nematoid worms represented by the Vinegar-
eels and constituting the family Anguillulidz is astonishingly great.
They are found in multitudes frequently in and about moist decay-
ing and fermenting organic substances. Mr. Bastian, of London, a
few years since contributed to the 25th volume of the Transactions
of the Linnean Society a paper, in which he has given descriptions,
with characteristic figures, of most of the known species, including
about one hundred new ones, which he observes he discovered from
a few limited regions in England in the course of fifteen months.
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 25
In seeking for the source of the small thread-worm, or Oxyuris ver-
micularis, which infests man, I have also been led to discover some
new species, of which I propose in due time to publish descriptions
with drawings. As is commonly the case in organic nature, we find
the specific form changing with the change in condition, but the
species are often found to differ where differences in the conditions
are hardly appreciable.
Mr. Bastian, in a note to his description of the Vinegar-eel, 4z-
guillula aceti, says he was indebted to Dr. Davaine for the opportunity
of examining the animals, and adds that ‘‘ they are much less fre-
quent than is generally imagined—at all events in England; and
this may be due in great measure to the adulteration of our vinegar
with sulphuric acid.’’ It would thus appear that the dAxgwillula
aceti he examined was contained in a specimen of what may be sus-
pected to have been the wine vinegar of France. The cider vinegar
so commonly used in this country usually teems with vinegar eels.
Our vinegar cruets, when held up to the light, even to the sharp
sight of a naked eye, frequently exhibit the worms swarming, espe-
cially at the border of the surface, asif in search of both air and light.
By comparison of our cider Vinegar-eel with Mr. Bastian’s description
and drawings of the true Anguzllula aceti, which I infer to be the
wine Vinegar-eel, it appears to belong to a different species. From
the descriptions of previous authors of the European Vinegar-eel, I
had considered ours asthe same. I shall not now give a description
of the animal, proposing to do so in the future, together with other
species. J may say, however, while it has nearly the size and form
of the dnguillula aceti, it has the cesophagus of the form in the
genus Cepha/lobus of Bastian.

Prof. Leidy exhibited in a vessel of water numerous living speci-
mens of a leech, which he said was abundant in the vicinity of Phil-
alelphia, but appears to be an undescribed species. He had first
observed it in a pond on the Delaware, near Beverly, Burlington
county, N. J., from which he obtained the largest specimens. It
was found especially beneath half-submerged dead limbs of trees,
sometimes between the bark and the wood, and in crevices and holes
of the latter made by insects. It was also found in the Delaware
and Schuylkill rivers near shore, beneath stones. In ditches
below the city, and communicating with the rivers mentioned,
smaller leeches, apparently the young of the same, were frequently
between the leave sheaths of submerged stems of aquatic plants,

such as Zizania aquatica, Scirpus fluviatilis, Sagittaria, Sparganium,
&c. When disturbed the animal receded from its position of rest
and swam rapidly like the ordinary medicinal leech, //ivudo decora.
It appears to belong toa different genus from the latter, and ap-
proaches most in character ephe/is, though it even exhibits points
of difference from this as ordinarily described. ‘The more mature
animal from the Beverly pond may thus be characterized :
Body elongated, flattened cylindroid, narrowing anteriorly,
smooth, indistinctly annulated, margin acute, above blackish oliva-
ceous, below translucent grayish, with a more or less reddish tinge
due tothe blood. No striz or markings visible beneath, and the
annuli in this position scarcely perceptible. Annuli about 98,
above minutely punctated with yellowish olivaceous or dusky
whitish, and narrowly defined by the samme hue. Head continuous
with the body, obtuse. Mouth large, obliquely terminal, sub-bi-
labiate ; lower lip crenulate. Jaws three rudimental folds without
teeth. C&sophagus capacious, with three longitudinal folds. In-
testine simple. Anus-dorsal, conspicuous, in the penultimate annu-
lus. Eyes six; anterior pair largest and approximated ; second
pair in second annulus corresponding with the lower lip; third
pair smallest, more deeply ‘situated than the others, and placed
slightly external and posterior to the second pair. Acetabulum
terminal, inferior, circular, nearly as wide as the body. The larger
male aperture conspicuous, and situated about one-fifth of the length
of the body from the head; the smaller female aperture scarcely
visible and situated two or three annuli back of the former. Length
to 21%4 inches by two lines wide; by contraction becoming shorter
and wider.
Smaller specimens, from half an inch to an inch in length, from
the ditches communicating with the Delaware and Schuylkill rivers,
and from the latter agree in form and constitution with the preced-
ing, having the same number of annuli to the body and the same
number and disposition of the eyes. The color is translucent pale
Indian red, passing into darker shades and without the colored
puncte. Some young pale individuals exhibit a few scattered
minute black punctze down the back, due to single pigment cells,
but mostly these are absent. Intermediate sized individuals from
the Delaware and Schuylkill exhibit a gradation of character be-
tween the two forms indicated. Further numerous young from the
ditches, kept in an aquarium for the last month, have gradually
assumed the appearance of the more mature animal as first de-
scribed.

Nephelis vulgaris of Europe has eight eyes, and the generative
apertures ere included between the 34th and 38th annuli. In the
species above described I could detect but six eyes, and the annuli
at the fore part of the body are too indistinctly defined to determine
the exact relative position of the generative apertures.
The new species of Nephelis I would propose to name JV. pzenec-
tata.

Prof. Leidy made the following remarks on 7@nta mediocanellata ;
Recently one of our ablest and most respected practitioners of
medicine submitted to my examination a tapeworm which had been
discharged from a young man after the use of the aspidium filix-
mass. The physician, in giving an account of the case, stated that
he had previously treated the patient for another affection, in which
raw-beef sandwiches had been prescribed for food. After looking
at the worm, I remarked that it appeared to be the 7nia medio-
canellata, a species which I had not before seen, and added that
the patient had probably become infected from a larva swallowed
with the raw-beef sandwiches. The specimen consisted of the
greater part of the worm, broken into several pieces. Including
some lost portions, it was estimated to have been upward of thirty
feet in length. Unfortunately, the head proved to be absent; but,
so far as character could be obtained from the specimen, in the form
of the segments, position of the genital orifices, and the condition
of the ovaries, it agreed with the description given of 7° mediocane/-
lata rather than with 7. solzwm. From a want of acquaintance
with the former, I did not feel entirely satisfied that the specimen
actually belonged to that species.
Subsequently my friend brought to me the anterior part of the
body, probably of the same individual tapeworm. He observed that,
his patient continuing to complain, he had administered another dose
of the male-fern, which was followed by the expulsion of the portion
of the worm now presented. The head of the parasite was included,
and it confirmed the view that it pertained to the 7zia mediocanellata.
The case serves as another caution against the use of raw flesh as
food.
The description of the worm, as derived from the specimen, is as
follows :
The head is white, without pigment-granules, obtusely rounded,
unarmed with hooks, and unprovided with a rostellum, but furnished
with a minute acetabuliform fovea at the summit. The four ace-
I25 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
tabula are spherical, and opaque white. The diameter of the head
is three-fourths of aline. The neck, or unsegmented portion of the
body immediately succeeding the head, is about 4 lines long by half
a line in breadth. The most anterior indistinctly defined segments
of the body, and those immediately succeeding them, but more dis-
tinctly separated, are about one-fifth of a line long by two-fifths of
a line broad. Ina more posterior fragment of the body the flat and
nearly square segments measure half a line long and a line broad to
one-third line longand 2% lines broad. A succeeding fragment ex-
hibits segments 3'% lines long by 4 lines broad, and 2 lines long by 5
lines broad. Many of the segments in this piece are irregularly sepa-
rated, laterally, by deep, wide notches. Ina succeeding long portion
of the worm the segments are wider behind than in front, and
measure 2, 5, and 3 lines long by 5 lines broad. Ina long piece of
the posterior part of the worm the segments are first 4 lines long
and broad, and in the last four feet of the same piece the segments
are clavate in outline, from 6 to 10 lines long, and 2 and 3 lines broad.
The genital apertures are conspicuous, and are situated behind the
middle of the segments. They alternate irregularly. Thus, in the
last two feet of the posterior fragment of the. worm, the first two
segments exhibit the aperture on the left margin; the succeeding
segment presents the anomaly of an aperture on both margins, then
follow three apertures on the right, next two on the left, then four
on the right, then eight alternating in pairs, then one on the left,
and soon. ‘The ovaries are opaque white, and exhibit numerous
closely crowded lateral branches.
In the absence of pigment-granules to the head, and in the less
robust character of the worm, the specimen differs from 7. medio-
canellata as described by Kuchenmeister. The minute acetabular
pit or fovea at the summit of the head is not mentioned by Kuchen-
meister and subsequent observers as a character of that species. It
is a point, however, that might be readily overlooked, especially if
parts of the head are obscured by the presence of pigment-granules.

FLIES AS A MEANS OF COMMUNICATING CONTAGIOUS DISEASES.
Prof. Leidy remarked that at this time, during the prevalence of
smallpox, he was reminded of an opinion he had entertained that
flies were probably a means of communicating contagious diseases to
a greater degree than was generally suspected. From what he had
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 129
observed in one of the large military hospitals, in which hospital
gangrene had existed, during the late rebellion, he thought flies
should be carefully excluded from wounds. Recently he noticed
some flies greedily sipping the diffluent matter of some fungi of the
Phallus impudicus. He caught several, and found that on holding
them by the wings they would exude two or three drops of liquid
from the proboscis, which, examined by the microscope, were found
to swarm with the spores of the fungus. The stomach was likewise
filled with the same liquid, swarming with spores.
[December, 1871. No. 362. See Bibliography. |
Notice of Some Worms.—Prof. Leidy remarked that Prof. Hayden
reports the brook trout, Sa/mo fontinalis, of the headwaters of the
Yellowstone River, to be much infested with a species of tapeworm.
A number of specimens of the worm, collected by C. Carrington,
have been submitted to hisexamination, but, unfortunately, most of
them are so far decomposed as nearly to be reduced to the condition
of pulp. The worms are stated to have been taken from the abdom-
inal cavity, but not from the intestinal canal, and often were found
beneath the skin, extended among the muscles or inclosed in oval
sacs. Several cysts preserved entire contained worms in a better
condition for examination than the others, and from these the char-
acters of the parasite have been ascertained. It belongs to the old
genus Bothriocephalus, and to that section now named Lzdbothiium.
Two species of this genus have long been known as infecting the
salmon and other members of the same genus of fishes in Europe,
but the parasite of the Yellowstone trout appears to be a different one.
Two of the best preserved specimens measured five inches long by
a line wide at the broadest part. The head, about a fourth of a line
in diameter, is obcordate. The two suckers or bothria are thick and
discoidal, placed back to back, obcordate in outline, directed with
their broad and slightly depressed surface towards the margins of the
body. The body is flat, thick, with rounded margins, and is nar-
rowly annulated or segmented. The annulations, due to muscular
bands, measure about ten toa line. Segments, independent of the
annulations, if existing, could not be distinguished, perhaps on ac-
count of the badly preserved condition of the specimens. No genital
apertures are visible at the sides nor at the margins. No internal
organs are visible, but the soft, solid interior tissue is filled with
round corpuscles resembling starch granules. These are, however,

composed of carbonate of lime, as they are dissolved by acetic acid
with an abundant evolution of carbonic acid.
From the form of the head the worm was named Dibothrium
cordiceps.
Numerous leeches collected by Prof. Hayden's assistants, Messrs.
Carrington and Dawes, in a lake in Wyoming Territory, appear to
belong to the species du/astomum lacustris, first discovered several
years ago in Twin Lake, Minnesota (Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci., 1868,
p. 229). Mr. Carrington informs us that the head of a horse, which
was thrown into the lake, in a few hours appeared black from the
quantity of these leeches which adhered to it. It is barely probable
that this leech is the one described by Thomas Say, in Long’s Expe-
ditions, under the name of //irawdo marmorata, though the characters
do not accord with his description of the latter. It is not improb-
able that the two are quite distinct. //. marmorata, together with
another species, /7. /atera/is, was obtained from small lakes on the
high land between Lake Superior and Rainy Lake. Neither of
these appears to have been obtained since their first discovery.
Several large hair worms from Fish Creek, Montana, pertain to
the species Gordius lacustris, previously described from specimens
obtained in Kansas. It is the largest known Gordius. The females
of the Kansas specimens range from ro inches to 2% feet in length,
the males from 8 inches to upwards of 2 feet. The females of the
Montana specimens measure from 14 to 2% feet in length, a male
8% inches in length. The females are pale brown, the males dark
brown and with a strongly forked tail.

On a Mite in the Ear of the Ox.—Prof. Leidy remarked that he
had received a letter from Dr. Charles S. Turnbull, in which he
stated that while studying the anatomy of the ear he had discovered
in several heads of steers, at the bottom of the external auditory
meatus, a number of small living parasites. They were found at-
tached to the surface of the membrana tympani. Specimens of the
parasite preserved in glycerine, and a petrosal bone, to which several
of the parasites were clinging, were also sent for examination. These
proved to be a mite or acarus, apparently of the genus Gamasus.
The body is ovoid, translucent white, about 3-5ths of a line long
and 2-5ths of a line wide. ‘The limbs, jaws, and their appendages
are brown and bristled. The body is smooth or devoid of bristles.
The limbs are from 2-5ths to % alinelong. ‘The feet are terminated
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 131
by a five-lobed disk and a pair of claws, as represented in figure 3.
The palpi are six-jointed, as represented in figure 1. The mandibles
end in pincers or chelz, resembling lobster claws, as represented in
figure 2. The movable joint of the chelez has two teeth at the end.
The opposed extremity of the fixed joint of the chelz is narrow,
and ends ina hook. (Drawing.)
Whether this mite is a true parasite of the ear of the living ox, or
whether it obtained access to the position in which it was after the
death of the ox in the slaughter-house, has not yet been determined.
Dr. Turnbull observed it only in the position indicated.
[June, 1872. No 365. See Bibliography.}
Note on Gamasus of the Ox.—Prof. Leidy read an extract from a
letter from Dr. C. S. Turnbull, in which it was stated that the writer
had been misunderstood in relation to the acarus of the ox, described
in the Proceedings for January 2d. He had seen the cattle killed,
and was positive that the mites occupied the position in the ear of
the steers while these were alive. Such being the case, the acarus
may be viewed as a parasite of the ox, and may be specifically named
Gamasus aurts.
[April, 1873. No. 389. See Bibliography. ]
Fungus Parasite on a Mouse.—Prof. Leidy exhibited a mouse with
several whitish masses adherent to the ears, side of the face, and
nose. The mouse had been caught in the children’s department of
Blockley Hospital, and was submitted to his examination by one of
the attending physicians, Dr. James B. Walker, who had informed
him that he had observed a number of mice in the same condition.
Dr. Walker had previously informed him of the curious affection of
the mice, and it was at his suggestion that the present specimen was
caught for examination. The white matter, examined beneath the
microscope, proved to be composed of sporular bodies, single, double,
or in short chains of a-dozen or more. ‘They measure about the
1-650th of a line in diameter. The fungus is a Zovula or Oidinm,
and resembles that found in 4pfiza. Perhaps the disease in the mice
is the result of feeding upon articles imbued with adherent portions
of apthous matter from the mouths of children, and perhaps also
the latter may become affected from diseased mice contaminating
food or drink used by the children.

On Distoma Hepaticum.—Prof. Leidy stated that he had received a
letter from Prof. Gross, inclosing one from Dr. J. G. Kerr, of Can-
ton, China, asking information in regard to a worm accompanying
the letter. Dr. Kerr observes that the worm was vomited by a Chi-
nese boy, aged fifteen years, and was brought to him in an hour
after itsexpulsion, when it was stillalive. It had the appearance of
a leech, was red in color, about an inch and a half long and three-
fourths of an inch where widest. Dr. Kerr also states that a girl, of
four years, of English parents, living in Canton, passed from the
bowels at one time nine of these worms. With these exceptions,
Dr. Kerr had not met with any one who had ever seen or heard of
anything of the kind.
Prof. Leidy exhibited the specimen and expressed the opinion that
the worm was a Liver-fluke, Distoma hepaticum, a rare parasite in the
human subject, though common enough in cattle, especially sheep, in
which it caused the disease called ‘‘rot.’? The worm exhibits some
differences from 1). hepaticum as usually described, but perhaps not
sufficient to characterize it as a distinct species. The specimen is
preserved in strong alcohol, which no doubt has much contracted and
reduced it in size, but it is yet rather larger than the size assigned to
D. hepaticum. It is perfectly smooth throughout, and exhibits no
trace of roughness to the integument. It is ovate-lanceolate in form,
and gradually widens from the anterior to the posterior rounded
extremity. The ventral acetabulum is twice the size of the mouth,
and is situated about its own diameter behind it. The genital orifice
with the exserted spiral penis is placed just in advance of the ventral
acetabulum. ‘The measurements of the worm in its present condition
are as follows: Length 17 lines, width at the posterior third 7 lines,
thickness near center 1 line, diameter of mouth 2-5ths of a line, di-
ameter of acetabulum 4-5ths of a line.
Prof. Leidy further remarked that Dr. Keyser, of this city, the
evening previously had brought to him for examination a worm,
which was stated to have been removed from the cavity of the nose
of a patient. He recognized the worm as a rat-tail lava (Larva?)
apparently of the genus /77sta/is, and inquired of those members
interested in entomology, if they had ever known this insect to be
found as a parasite in the human body. Both Drs. Le Conte and
Horn said that they had never heard of this genus being parasitic.

On a Parasitic Worm of the House-fly.—Prof. Leidy remarked that
since it had become well known that many parasitic worms passed
different stages of development within several different animals, he
had from time to time sought for the sources from whence the more
common thread worms obtained entrance into the human body, but
thus far without success. The 77ichina spiralis, discovered in man
in 1833 by Mr. Hilton, and described and named by Prof. Owen in
1835, was first found in the hog by Prof. Leidy in 1846 (see Proc.
A. N.S., lii, 108), but it was not until some years subsequently that
it was determined that man and the hog acted reciprocally as hosts
for the 7richina in its different stages of development.
In examining various common animals of our household, Prof.
Leidy had found a thread-worm infesting the common house-fly.
The worm is from a line to the tenth of an inch long, and lives in
the proboscis of the fly. It was found in numbers from one to three
in about one flyin five. The parasite was first discovered in the
house-fly in India by the English naturalist, Mr. H. J. Carter, who
described it under the name of /i/avia Musce, and suggested the
opinion that it might be the source of the Guinea worm, /i/aria
medinensis, in man. Mr. Carter states that he found from two to
twenty of the worms in one fly of three. Dr. Diesing referred the
parasite to a new genus with the name of /fabronema musce. The
singular position in which the worm lives suggests the many unsus-
pected places we have to search to find the parents or offspring of
our own parasites.

On a Fungus ina Flamingo —Prof. Leidy remarked that a pair of
Flamingoes had recently died in the Garden of the Zoological So-
ciety at Fairmount Park. Dr. Chapman, who had dissected the
birds, called his attention to the diseased condition of the lungs of
one of them, the other not being affected in this respect. The pos-
terior part of the lungs on both sides, contiguous to the abdominal
air sacs, was occupied by an indurated brown substance, in striking
contrast with the usual bright roseate hue of the neighboring pul-
monary tissue. An incision made into the indurated substance
exhibited a brown compact surface with greenish-black dots which
corresponded with the bronchial tubes. On microscopical examina-
tion the substance was found to be pervaded with a fungous vegeta-
tion, and the greenish-black dots were due to the fruit heads pro-
fusely covered with colored spores.
134 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
Prof. Owen, upwards of forty years ago, mentioned the existence
of a green mould he had observed in the lungs of a Flamingo, which
died in the menagerie of the Zoological Society of London, but he
gave no description of the plant by which we can recognize it.
Since then many accounts have been given of the existence of fun-
gous vegetation in the diseased lungs of various birds, but I think
it has not been determined whether the diseased condition was due
to the fungus or whether this was a subsequent production.
The plant observed in our diseased Flamingo belongs to the
Moulds or Mucedines, and is evidently an Aspergillus. A number
of species of this genus have been described, growing on various
decaying substances. The common Blue Mould found in cheese and
bread kept in a damp place is the Aspergillus glaucus. From this
the mould of the Flamingo is quite distinct in the structure of the
fruiting receptacles, in which respect it more nearly resembles the
Aspergillus dubius, growing on rabbit’s dung. The Aspergillus of
the Flamingo I suspect to be the same as one described by M.
Robin under the name of Aspergillus nigrescens, discovered by him
in the lungs of a pheasant (Pheasianus colchicus) affected with
phthisis.
In the Flamingo mould the mycelium consisted of a dense flock of
delicate ramifying filaments pervading the indurated pulmonary
tissue, which consisted largely of nucleated cell elements and gran-
ules. The threads of the mycelium were branching, and occupied
on the interior with clear globules appearing like rows of beads.
The threads measured usually the 1-500th of a millimeter or less in
diameter. |
The fruiting stems (see accompanying figure) were straight, from
one-fourth to two-fifths of a millimeter long, not articulated, usually
simple, and rarely divided, approximating a right angle near the
head. They were about the 1-250th mm. wide at the mycelial
origin and double the width approaching the head. The head con-
tinuous with the stem was pyriform, or the stem expanded into a
globular receptacle, which was closely crowded with linear processes
or sporophores, supporting the spherical, translucent colored spores.
The latter profusely invested the heads, but were too ripe and readily
detached to determine their exact arrangement in relation with the
sporophores. These, on the contrary, remained firmly attached to
the receptacle.
The receptacles measured from 1-60th mm. to 1-50th mm, The
stratum of sporophores was from 1-166th mm. to 1-125th mm. thick.
The spores were 1-333d mm. in diameter.
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 135
By transmitted light the spores appeared so faintly colored that
the tint was undetermined ; by reflected light in mass they appeared
of a greenish hue. The receptacles, including the sporophores, ap-
peared fuscous by transmitted light, but white by reflected light.
In M. Robin’s plate of 4. zigreseens he represents most of the
fruiting stems as articulated, but in our plant none of this character
were detected.

Notes on Some Parasitic Worms (with drawing).—Prof. Leidy re-
marked that Mr. Henry Horn, assistant superintendent at the
Zoological Garden, had given to him several specimens of worms,
recently passed by a Bengal tiger. There are three males and eight
females, and they appear to be the Ascaris mystax, which has been
found in many other feline species, including the domestic cat and
the lion. [he characters of the worms from the tiger are as fol-
lows: Body almost equally tapering towards the extremities. Fe-
male—Cephalic end inflexed, with long narrow semi-lanceolate alz.
Caudal end straight ; tail short, conical, subacute. Male —Cephalic
end straight, alated. Caudal end inflexed, and furnished with a
row of about two dozen minute round papillze on each side ventrally ;
tail short, conical, acuminate. Length of females from 2 to 3%
inches; thickness from 1-4th to % line. Length of males from 13
to 16 lines; thickness from 1-6th to 1-5th line.
Prof. Leidy further remarked that Mr. Thomas Mechan had sub-
mitted to his examination some worms which had been found in an
apple. They consisted of one entire individual and the anterior half
of a second, and apparently pertain to the J/ermis acuminata, a long
thread-worm which has been discovered infesting the larvee of many
insects. Among others, it is parasitic in the larva of the codling-
moth, or fruit-moth of the apple, which readily accounts for its pres-
ence in the fruit. "Twenty-five vears ago (Proc., 1850, 117) he de-
scribed a worm, belonging to the collection of the Academy, and
labeled as having been obtained from a child’s mouth, which was
evidently the same species. It having been in the child’s mouth is
probably to be explained by supposing that the child had eaten an
infected apple.
The characters of the present specimens of the worm, both fe-
males, are as follows: Body filiform, pale fuscous, narrower ante-
riorly. Head conical, truncate, with the mouth simple and unarmed.
Caudal extremity thicker than the head, obtusely rounded, and fur-
nished with a minute spur-like process. Length 5 inches 8 lines ;
136 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
cephalic end at mouth 1-12th mm.; a short distance below 1-5th mm. ;
middle of body 3-8ths mm.; near caudal end 1-4th mm.; mucro
1-12th mm. long, 1-80th mm. thick.
From an Australian wombat, which recently died at the Zodlogical
Garden, Prof. Leidy had obtained from the stomach two specimens
of a tapeworm of the genus Zenia. They are three inches long, and
about four lines broad at the last joint. The characters are as fol-
lows: Entire worm elongated and compressed pyramidal. Head
quadrate, narrowing below, convex above, furnished laterally with
four prominent hemispherical bothria. Neck short, constricted.
Segments of the body very short and wide, campanulate with the
projecting points, giving the body laterally a serrated appearance.
From the intermediate joints a narrow conical papilla protruded
from each side of the same joint, but none could be made to protrude
from the back joints, from which globular white ova were expressed
measuring 0,052 mm. diameter. Head 3-a4ths of a line in breadth.
One inch from the head six segments occupied the space of a line ;
at the posterior part of the body four segments occupied the same
extent. The species appears not to have been previously described,
and may therefore be named 7enia bipapillosa.
[February, 1875. No. 418. See Bibliography. |
Notes on Some Parasitic Worms.—Dr. Leidy exhibited some nema-
toid worms, on which he made the following remarks :
One of the species is common in feline animals and is the Ascaris
mystax. ‘The specimens, consisting of fifteen females and five males,
had been sent to Dr. Chapman by Mr. Thompson, superintendent
of the Zoological Garden, who reports that they had been passed by
the American wild-cat. The females measure from 2% to 4 inches
in length by 2-5ths to 2-3ds of a line in thickness. The males
measure from 24 to 2% inches in length by 1-3d to % a line in
thickness. The specimens are larger and the alee of the head pro-
portionally better developed and therefore more conspicuous than
in those noticed at the previous meeting as having been passed by
the Bengal tiger. The worms of the tiger are such as have been
described under the name of Ascaris leptotera, which appears to be
only a variety of 4. mystax.
The other worm is a /i/aria, apparently an undescribed species.
Half a dozen individuals of the two sexes were obtained from the
peritoneal cavity of an Australian Whallabee, which recently died
in the garden of the Zodlogical Society. The characters of the
parasite are as follows :
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 137
Filaria Spelea.—Body filiform, translucent whitish, tapering at
the extremities. Cephalic end straight, obtusely rounded, fur-
nished with four equidistant papillae around the mouth. Caudal
end narrowest, rather abruptly attenuated and spirally rolled once
or twice and terminating obtusely. A distinct anal aperture ob-
servable in the female. A row of eight papilla on each side ven-
trally of the caudal end of the male; three in advance and the
others back of the genital aperture. Penis a long, tubular style,
thick at the upper part, narrow and curved below. Accessory
piece a short, thick, curved tube, widening at the upper end in a
spade-like, furcate portion. Csophagus long, cylindrical, as wide
as the succeeding intestine.
Measurements.—Female, length to inches, thickness 1-4th line.
Length of tail from anal aperture 7-8ths mm. Male, length 4 to
4% inches; thickness 1-66th inch. Tail, from genital aperture,
forms 2-3ds of a circle % a mm. in diameter. Penis 7-8ths mm.

On Psorosperms in a Mallard Duck.—Prof. Leidy remarked that
Dr. Elliott Coues had recently submitted to his examination some
portions of the flesh of a mallard duck preserved in glycerine. The
interstices of the muscles of the duck were stated in the letter which
accompanied the specimens to be everywhere occupied by abundance
of parasites. Specimens of these in the portions of flesh examined
proved to be oval white bodies from one to two inches long and
about one-third of a line thick. Beneath the microscope they were
found to contain myriads of fusiform corpuscles, resembling minute
navicule and measuring about the 1-r500th of an inch in length.
Similar bodies were first discovered in many fish by the late Prof.
J. Miiller and described by him as parasites under the name of
Psorosperms. ‘They have been repeatedly observed since by Ret-
zins, Robin, and others in the muscles and other parts of fishes, and
they are usually regarded as vegetable parasites. I have not pre-
viously heard of similar organisms having been detected in birds.
Though the mallard is not a fish-eater, the bird may have become
infected by having swallowed an infected fish.

the 8th of last August by Mr. P. H. Foster, of Babylon, Long
Island, N. Y. It was one of two specimens which Mr. Foster had
taken from apple worms found concealed ina woolen rag tied around
the trunk of an apple tree in his garden. ‘The mermis is 714 inches
long, and had been retained alive in a box with moist spagnum. It
exhibits a condition which Prof. I,. had observed on several previ-
ous occasions in other species of ermis. An intermediate portion
of the body, apparently from injury, had died and was decomposed,
while the extremities held together by the integument were still
alive and active. This condition has been observed to be main-
tained for some time—that is to say, for some weeks.

On Intestinal Parasites of Termes Flavipes.—Prof. Leidy remarked
that in seeking small animals beneath stones and fragments of wood
in our forests, observing the very common White Ant, Zevmes
flavipes, he noticed that the intestine of the insect, seen in the
translucent abdomen, was distended with brown matter. Feeling
curious to learn the exact nature of this matter, he was surprised
to find that it consisted largely of infusorial and other parasites,
mingled with minute particles of decayed wood. In many instances
the parasites are so numerous as to make up the greater portion of
the bulk of the intestinal pulp. Every individual he had examined,
of workers, soldiers, and winged forms, was infested with the para-
sites, which may be estimated by millions. As the discovery to
him of this new world of parasitic life was recent, he had not yet
had time to sufficiently examine scientific literature to ascertain
whether the parasites had been discovered and described by others.
M. C. Lespes, in a memoir on the organization of the Zermes luci-
Jugus of France, published in the Annales des Sciences Naturelles
for 1856, remarks that the intestine is usually occapied by a kind of
brown pulp, a living agglomeration of infusoria, and in another
paper in the same volume, after describing a nematoid worm, /sacis
migrans, infesting the Zermes, he remarks that he had found in the
intestine of the insect a great quantity of parasites, upon which he
proposed to say something in the future
The parasites observed in our White Ant consist of five different
kinds, of which three are animal and two vegetable in character.
One of the latter consists of filaments of the algoid form he had
once described under the name of Arvthromitus ; the other, not so
frequent, is a Spirillum, probably S. undula.
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 139
The animal parasites, of which drawings were exhibited, are as
follows :
1. Lrichonympha Agilis. ‘This isa remarkable creature of obscure
affinity, but probably related with the 7urbel//aria on the one hand
and by evolution with the Cz/ate infusoria on the other. The ani-
mal is about 1-300th of an inch long and about half the breadth of
the length. Itis fusiform, and is clothed with ciliate hairs of extra-
ordinary length. The head is mammilliform; the posterior end of
the body from subacute to obtuse according as it is narrowed or
shortened by contraction. The cilia investing the body appear to
consist of three sets—the shortest ones waving outwardly and down-
ward from the head; asecond set extending from the head the
length of the body, incessantly waving downward and swelling out-
wardly, and the third set, the longest of all, extending from the head
beneath the others in a longitudinal spiral manner far beyond the
posterior end of the body, where they form a loosely twisted fascicle
with divergentends. Thearrangement of the long cilia clothing the
body reminded him of the nymphs in a recent spectacular drama, in
which they appeared with their nakedness barely concealed by long
cords suspended from the shoulders, and this arrangement has sug-
gested the name applied to the parasite.
He was not positive whether he had been able correctly to inter-
pret the interior structure of the animal, but it appeared to him to
resemble more that of the Riaddococ/a than that of any of the proto-
zoa. No appearance of vascular or nervous system could be de-
tected. The animal appeared to be capable of ingesting particles of
solid food, frequently observed in considerable quantity in the stom-
ach occupying the posterior two-thirds of the body. The mouth
apparently was a rounded pore at the summit of the head. From
this a narrow tube expanded in a pharyngeal pouch communicating
behind with the capacious stomach. Ananal outlet may exist at the
back end of the body, but was not detected. Opposite the conjunc-
tion of the pharyngeal pouch and the stomach a granular nuclear
body is constantly observed.
Trichonympha, though incessantly and actively in motion, usually
remains stationary in position, but occasionally advances with feeble
jerking propulsion. The chief movements consist in frequent re-
traction or shortening and bending of the cephalic end with rapid
waving and swelling outwardly of the long ciliary hairs. The mo-
tion of the latter resembles the flowing of a thin sheet of water over
the brim of a fountain vase or basin swayed to one side or the other
bya current of wind. he longest cilia, extending beyond the back
I40 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
of the body in a loosely twisted fascicle, are the least active, but
at times stretch outwardly and become more divergent at the ends,
or they become more closely applied to the sides of the body. When
the head is bent to one or the other side, with the summit directed
forward, it gives rise to an appearance resembling the spiral peri-
stome of a Stentor. Viewed on end, the parasite appears circular
with long divergent cilia, and reminds one of the upper view of a
Vorticella.
2. Pyrsonympha Vertens. The two remaining animal parasites
are Infusoria. The larger of the two is often more abundant than
the Zrichonympha, and is about the 1-200th of an inch in length.
It is more delicate, less distinctly defined, and undergoes rapid dis-
solution after removal from the intestine of the Termite. It is elon-
gated fusiform, or, when shortened, clavate or pyriform in outline.
Like 77vichonympha, it usually remains stationary in position, while
actively moving, writhing, apparently twisting, and often bending
in a waving manner from one extremity to the other. In motion,
longitudinally spiral and parallel lines become more or less evident
and frequently cause serrated projections at the extremities or at
the prominence of the bends when produced at the lateral borders.
These exhibit a rapid waving motion, strikingly resembling the
movement of flames and probably denoting the presence of minute
cilia, though these were not positively seen. A narrow band ex-
tends the length of the body, sometimes projecting at one end, and
moves in long angular waves, flexing the body in accordance with
its movement. The body appears to be composed of finely granular
protoplasm, with but faint distinction of endo and ectosare. A
large oval or round granular nucleus occupies a position in advance
of the middle of the body. The position of the mouth was not de-
tected, though one is most probably present, as the animalcule is
often replete with large particles of food, consisting of bits of wood.
Pyrsonympha may be the larval condition of 7richonympha, though
there is no evidence that such is the case.
3. Dinenympha Gracilis, A Ciliate Infusorian, the smallest and
most abundant of the three animal parasites, about 1-350th of an
inch in length, is flattened, fusiform, and in motion often twisted.
It is longitudinally and, in the twisted condition, spirally striated,
and is invested everywhere with fine cilia. The animal usually, re-
maining like its companions nearly stationary in position, writhes
from side to side, saortens and widens, or lengthens and contracts,
and rotates in the long axis. The longitudinal lines of the body by
contraction produce a serrated appearance at one end, or at the
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. I41
prominences of the lateral borders when the body is twisted. The
interior of the body is finely granular, often with one or more large
globules, probably consisting of a nucleus, and at times of contractile
vesicles or vacuoles. No mouth could be detected, although one
probably exists, as the animal often contains particles of solid food,
sometimes comparatively of enormous size.
The great accumulation of parasites, apparently constantly exist-
ing in the White Ant, one of our most common insects, will afford
a new and wonderful source of delight to our microscopists. They
should be examined in a denser liquid than water, as this produces
their rapid destruction. The white of an egg thinned with water
Prof. Ll. finds to be a good medium in which to examine these and
other minute parasites from the interior of animals.
The nematoid worm /sacis migrans, discovered by M. Lespes, so
abundantly existing within the 7ermes luctfugus, and also externally
in the nest of this insect, in France, Prof. L. has occasionally found
in the Zermes flavipes.

Remarks on Gregarines.—Prof. Leidy remarked that his recent
study of the Rhizopods had led him once more to make an examina-
tion of some of the Gregarines, regarded as pertaining to a nearly
related class.
The Gregarines are especially parasites of the Articulata, most of
the known forms having been found in insects, crustaceans, myria-
pods, and annelides. Most of those observed by himself were found
in vegetable and dirt feeders. They frequently occupy the aliment-
ary canal, but in some animals occupy other organs or the peri-
visceral cavity. With few exceptions, the Gregarines at maturity
consist of a comparatively large nucleated cell, which for convenience
may be named the body cell, continuous at one pole with a small
non-nucleated cell, which in like manner may be viewed as the head
cell. Both cellsare filled with fine globular granules, which in mass
give the Gregarines a milk-white appearance. No mouth or trace
of intestinal organs exists. The outer wall of the cells is a thick,
structureless, contractile endosare, and within this, in the body
cell, there is often perceptible, as in Gregarina larvata of our com-
mon Julus, a well-marked longitudinally striated and apparently
muscular layer.
The motions of the Gregarines consist of a kind of peristaltic
action of the wall of the body cell proceeding from one to the other
end.
I42 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
In the Gregarines, so common in several species of our earth-
worms, the head cell is absent, and therefore is very properly viewed
as of a different genus from the more ordinary Gregavina under the
name of J/onocystis. The Monocystis agilis is sausage-like in form,
and is usually from 1-3d to 3-4ths of a millimeter in length. In
movement its contractions may commence at one end and proceed
towards the opposite end, or it may commence at both ends, proceed-
ing towards the middle, or may commence in the latter position and
proceed towards the ends.
From the researches of Lieberkiihn and others it appears that the
Gregarines of earthworms assume a globular form and become en-
cysted, and the granular contents are in a greater measure resolved
into navicula-shaped germs, which have been named pseudo-navic-
ule or navicellee or psorosperms. Lieberkuhn was led to consider
the amoeboid perivisceral corpuscles of the earthworm as amoeba-
like embryos derived from the navicelle, but it is very doubtful
whether there is any relationship whatever between the two. Both
Gregarines and navicella cysts are met with in the intestine of our
common earthworm, but the cysts are to be found most frequently
and abundantly in the sperm vesicles. In the six vesicles of an
earthworm Prof. Leidy had counted 1,540 mature navicella cysts,
together with a number of groups of immature cysts. The mature
cysts, readily visible to the naked eye as minute pearly-white glob-
ules, by transmitted lght have a peculiar pale-blue hue. They
measure about 1-4th of a millimeter in diameter. A cyst burst open
spread its navicellz over a millimeter square, and was estimated to
contain about 2,500. ‘These were quite uniform in size and meas-
ured 0.0133 mm. long and 0.00665 broad.
E. Van Beneden has clearly traced the development of the Greg-
arina of the lobster from Amoeba-like embryos, so that it is not
improbable that similar embryos may be derived from the navicellz.
The Gregarines are usually viewed as constituting the lowest class
of the Protozoa, and hence the lowest of animals. From their
structure and mode of development, Prof. L. considered them as
holding a higher rank than Rhizopods, and occupying a position
intermediate to these and the Infusoria.
Prof. L. further stated that in a large earthworm, Lumbricus ter-
restris, from the yard of his residence, the posterior pair of sperm
vesicles alone contained upwards of a thousand navicella-cysts, besides
several thousand Gregarines, J/onocystis agilis, exhibiting the varie-
ties of condition, such as have been represented by Schmidt, Lieber-
kuhn, and others. Many of the Gregarines were invested with

motionless cilia, while other actively contracting individuals pos-
sessed no trace of these appendages. Some of the Gregarines further
exhibited transition stages towards transformation into navicella-
cysts. The latter differed from those previously mentioned in having
but a single thin membranous layer for their wall instead of many
layers.
Prof. L. added that our earthworms, which appear to be the same
as the common European species, likewise appear to be infested with
the same variety and kind of parasites. Among the latter he had
repeatedly observed the infusorian Anoplophrya lumbrici, and also
several different nematoids. One of these, which he had found in
the sperm vesicles, appeared to be undescribed. It was certainly
different from the Dicelis flaria found in the same organs by Dujardin.
It appears nearly related with Angwillula, and may be regarded as
such with the name of 4. melancholica. Its characters areas follows:
Body cylindrical, tapering at the ends, distinctly annulated. Head
truncated, with the vertex convex, and perforated centrally by the
mouth, and defined from the sides by an elevated annulus. ‘Tail
conical, and ending in ashort, thick conical process. Moutha minute
round pore, unarmed ; pharynx a short narrow tube; cesophagus
long, cylindroid, widening posteriorly, and rather abruptly narrowed
at the anterior extremity ; gizzard wider than the cesophagus, cylin-
drical and rounded at the extremities ; intestine straight, intensely
black or blackish brown. Length from 3 to 4 millimeters ; thickness
at middleo.15m. Length of cesophagus 0.5 m., of gizzard 0.125 m.,
thickness 0.075 m., thickness of intestine 0.05 m., length of tail
from anal aperture 0.175 m. Color black, with the anterior end
white. All females. Sometimes upwards of a dozen found in the
sperm vesicles of a single earthworm.

On Flukes Infesting Mollusks.—Prof. Leidy remarked that our’
common fresh-water mollusks, especially the gastropods, were much
infested with fawkes. ‘These appear to be prevalent during the latter
part of the year, and absent during the earlier part. Drawings were
exhibited of the sporocysts and cercarize of two species of flukes in-
festing Planorbis parvus.
The species were named and described as follows:
Monostoma (Glenocercaria) Lucania. Sporocyst bright orange-col-
ored, cylindroid in form, with obtusely rounded extremities.
Pharynx globular, from which is suspended a long cylindrical
144 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
pouch-like stomach, black in hue, extending two-thirds the length
of the body. Body cavity distended with cercariz in varions stages
of development. Cercaria white; with a compressed, ovoid body
emarginate behind ; tail cylindro-conical, pointed, as long or longer
than the body, often constricted so as to appear more or less monili-
form. Eyes two, black, with an intermediate black pigment spot
looking like a third eye, and a number of smaller pigment spots
scattered in the vicinity of the eyes. Acetabulum. Pharynx glob-
ular ; intestine bipartite. A distinct pore situated ventrally near
the root of the tail.
Length of sporocysts from 3-4ths to1 mm. Length of cercarize
“4 mm.
The sporocyst is quite active, elongating and shortening ; retract-
ing and projecting the pharynx. It also exhibits strong peristaltic
movements, in which the body becomes constricted tightly just back
of the pharynx or in any position beyond. The contraction grad-
ually extending backward and dividing the body cavity into two
compartments, the cercariz are suddenly slipped through the con-
striction, one after the other from the posterior to the anterior com-
partment. The movements of the cercarize, liberated from the
sporocyst, consist mainly in elongation and narrowing and shorten-
ing with widening of the body. Elongation of the body causes it
to exceed the length of the tail. At times the lateral extremities
of the posterior emargination of the body are prolonged into short
conical appendages.
This fluke occurs abundantly beneath the musular tegument,
among the lobes of the liver, and folds of the intestines of P/anorbis
parvus. Upwards of fifty of the sporocysts distended with cercarize
have been removed from a single Planorbis.
Distoma (Gymnocephala) Ascoidea. Sporocyst white. Head dis-
tinct from the body, campanulate, varying in the proportion of
length to breadth, according to the degree of contraction. Body
cylindroid, with a pair of lateral conical appendages, beyond which
it extends as a cylindro-conical tail-like prolongation. Pharynx
globular, encircled with six equidistant organs (undetermined in
character, probably teeth? or perhaps ganglia). Stomach a flask-
like pouch extending but a short distance from the head into the
body cavity, and not reaching the middle of the latter, even in its
most shortened condition ; bright brownin color. Body cavity dis-
tended with numerous cercariz ; the immature ones occupying the
tail-like prolongation. An orifice at the extremity of a blunt conical
snout communicates with the body cavity just back of the head.
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 145
Cercaria, white, with an obcordate or when elongated a clavate
body, and a long, narrow, cylindro-conical pointed tail. Cephalic
end triangular, and slightly constricted from the rest of the body ;
posterior part broadly emarginate. A ventral acetabulum near or
posterior to the center of the body, and between it and the root of
the tail an oval pore. Eyes none. Pharynx globular; gizzard
small ; divisions of the intestine extending about two-thirds the
length of the body.
Length of sporocysts of different ages, from 1-8th to 1 mm.
Length of cercariz 1-4th to 2-5ths mm.
In motion the sporocysts contract the head so that it may be of
nearly equal length and breadth, and it may be extended so as to
be double the length of the breadth. The body also elongates and
shortens in the same manner. Cercarize were observed in several
instances escaping from the snout-like projection of the body cavity
back of the head. The cercariz in movement elongate excessively,
and the body may be extended so as to be almost as narrow as the
root of the tail. The ventral disk is often protruded into a conical
appendage or expanded into a broad cup. The tail becoms longer,
narrower, and more pointed, or shorter, wider, and beaded.
This fiuke occupies a similar position in the /Yanorbzs as in the
former, and has been found in equal numbers, but the two species
have not been found associated in the same individual. The distoma
form of the ascoid fluke, encysted, was also observed in /lanorbis
parvus, without any traces of the generative organs being obvious.
A free swimming cercariz, identical in character with that of the
ascoid fluke, has been observed in water, which contained many
individuals of Planorbis parvus and Limnea elodes. The free cercaria
‘ agrees with the description of Cercaria minuta, Nitzsch, found with
various fresh-water mollusks of Europe.
Prof. L. further exhibited drawings of a Distoma, the oe rca
tardigrada, Diesing, from the mantle of Axodon fluviatilis ; asecond,
the Heterostomum echinatum, Diesing, from the oviduct of Pa/udina
decisa, and a third from //fe/ix aborea, thus described:
Distoma Appendiculata.—Translucent white, band-like, widest in
front and rounded at the head, tapering behind and truncate at the
end. Pharynx and ventral disk large and nearly equal and about
1-8th mm. diameter. The gizzard comparatively large and oval.
Intestine bifurcate with the branches parallel, and with an inter-
mediate pouch-like appendage extending nearly half way to the
position of the ventral disk. A posterior opening communicating

REMARKS ON THE SEVENTEEN-YEAR LOCUST, THE HESSIAN FLY,
AND A CHELIFER.
Prof. Leidy remarked that he had returned last evening from a
short visit to Easton. He stated that the Seventeen-year Locust,
Cicada septemdecim, had made its appearance in the vicinity of that
town. He further stated that the wheat in the same locality was
seriously affected by the Hessian Fly, Cectdomyia destructor, which
has now passed into the puparium stage. In one field examined
half the crop was destroyed by the insect. He further remarked
that his little daughter brought to him an Elater, 4d/aws oculatus,
and, on her account, professing to attach some interest to a common
insect, in examining it with more than usual attention, he was
surprised to find concealed beneath the elytra six Chelifers. He
was not aware whether the Elater was commonly infested in this
manner. In another specimen subsequently found there were no
Chelifers. The Book-scorpion, C. mzseorum, appears not to be
common with us, as he rarely met with it. He had occasionally
met with another species, perhaps C. cancroides, attached to the
House-fly. The Chelifer of the Elater is different from either of
those just named, and is perhaps an undescribed species. Its char-
acters are as follows:
Chelifer Alius.—Body in general chestnut brown; the pedipalps
and the dorsal shield of the cephalothorax being darkest ; the abdo-
men lightest, and in the largest individuals, probably females, whit-
ish with transverse dorsal and ventral bands of brown. Body with
the sides nearly parallel, but widening slightly posteriorly, being
widest near the termination of the abdomen, except in the largest
female, in which it is widest near the middle of the abdomen.
Maxillary palps shorter or not longer than the body ; intermediate
joints of the same about twice the length of their thickness. Length
of body from 1% to 2% mm.; length of pedipalps from 1% to 1%
mm. All parts are hairy, but the abdomen of the largest ones is
less so than in the others.
The species bears much resemblance in form and color to the
C. reussti, Koch. It also resembles the C. americanus, De Geer,
but it does not possess the knob on the penultimate joint of the
pedipalp.

Remarks on some Parasitic Infusoria.—Prof. Leidy remarked that
most of the known parasitic infusoria possessed a mouth, as in those
which lived free in the waters. Such is the case with the species of
Balantidium found in the intestinal canal of man, the hog, and
various batrachians ; of Vyctotherus, found in the intestine of frogs,
several insects, and myriapods, and the Conchophthirus anodonte,
often found abundantly in the branchiz and palpi of our Anodon
fluviatilis.
Other parasitic infusoria are not only devoid of an intestinal canal
as characteristic of their class, but have no mouth, and, like the tape-
worms and Echinorhynchi, absorb nourishment through the exte-
rior surface of the body. Such is the case with the genus 4xoplo-
phrya of Stein, typified by the Anoplophrya lumbrica, found in the
intestine of our common earthworms, as well as in those of Europe.
Prof. Leidy had also detected the same species in the little wood-
worm, Luchytraeus socialis, and had found two other species, for-
merly described by him under the names of Leucophrys cdavata and
Leucophrys cochleariformis, in the intestine of Lambriculus limosus and
L. tenuts.
Recently in dissecting the fresh-water snail, Paludina deisa, while
examining the branchize he observed several individuals of an Azxo-
plophrya moving actively, as if in antagonism with the ciliary motion
of the branchial plates. Seeking the source of the little creatures, he
found that they came from the rectum of the Paludina In examin-
ing other individuals of this snail he observed that some were free,
others were infested with few and some with multitudes of the infu-
sorian. In several instances the Anoplophryze were so abundant as
to resemble in their crowded condition a mass of writhing worms,
actually distending the portion of the intestine they occupied.
The species appears to be an undescribed one, and is interesting
from its comparatively large size. It was named and described as
follows : |
Anoplophrya Vermicularis.—Body cylindrical, slightly tapering pos-
teriorly, rounded at the extremities, or subacute behind ; flattened
at the anterior extremity ; translucent white, finely striated longitu-
dinally, uniformly clothed with short cilia; internally finely granu-
lar, with a longitudinal cylindrical nucleus occupying nearly the
length of the axis, and with from twenty to thirty contractile vesi-
cles, mostly arranged in one, but often in two, longitudinal series.
Length from two-fifths to one-half a millimeter ; breadth in front,
.044 to .048 mm., behind .032 to .o4 mm.
148 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
Besides the movements of progression induced by the cilia, the
animal wriggles in a sigmoid manner and even doubles on itself.
The contractile vesicles may contract more or less successively to
mere points, but apparently at no time entirely disappear, and they
may enlarge to double their usual size. The axial nucleus is at
first barely perceptible, but becomes very obvious as the animal
approaches dissolution.
Incidently Prof. Leidy also stated that Aspidogaster conchicola, so
common in the pericardium of 4xodonta and (/nio, he had also found
in one instance in the oviduct of Paludina decisa.
| September, 1877. No. 444. See Bibliography. |
On the Bed-bug and its Allics.—Prof. Leidy remarked that it was
commonly supposed that the swallow, pigeon, and bat were infested
with the bed-bug, and that those animals introduced the insect into
houses. Packard (Guide to Study of Insects, 551) observes that
the bed-bug ‘‘ lives as a parasite on the domestic birds,’’ and adds
that a gentleman informed him ‘‘ that he has found a nest of swal-
lows on a court-house in Iowa swarming with bed-bugs.’’ West-
wood (Introd., 11, 475, note) says it is certain that bed-bugs ‘‘ swarm
in the American timber employed in the construction of new houses. ’’
‘‘In the western part of our country,’’ continued Prof. Leidy, ‘‘ I
frequently heard that bed-bugs were to be found at any time be-
neath the bark of the cotton-wood and the pine. In these positions
I never found one, nor have I ever found the insect except in the
too familiar proximity of man. Recently, when in the West, while
watching some cliff swallows passing in and out of their retort-
shaped mud nests built under the eaves of a house, I was told that
these nests swarmed with bed-bugs, and that.usually people would
not allow the birds to build in such places, because they introduced
bed-bugs into the houses. Having collected a number of the bugs,
as well as others from the interior of the house, specimens of both
of which are submitted to the examination of the members, I found
that while the latter are true bed-bugs, C7zmex lectularius, the former
are of a different species, the C. Airundinis. ‘The bugs infesting the
bat and pigeon have likewise been recognized as a peculiar species,
with the name of C. pipistrelii and C. columbarius.’’ Prof. Leidy
further noticed that the habit of the C. Azrundints was similar to
that of C. /ectularius in the circumstance that the bugs during the
daytime would secrete themselves in crevices of the boards away
from the nests. After sunset he had observed the bugs leave their
hiding places and make their way to the nests. From these obser-

vations it would appear as if the peculiar bugs of the animals men-
tioned did not reciprocally infest their hosts.

A Louse of the Pelican.—Prof. Leidy exhibited a portion of the
pouch of a pelican, with several groups of large lice adhering to the
lining membrane. ‘The specimen, suspended in alcohol, had been
presented to him some years since by his late friend, Prof. Jeffries
Wyman, who obtained it while in Florida from the white pelican,
Pelecanus trachyrhynchus.
Later Dr. Elliott Coues, U.S. A., had submitted to his inspection
specimens of the same louse, which he had obtained from the inte-
rior of the pouch of a white pelican from the Red River of the North.
The Louse pertains to the J/al/ophaga, or Fleece-eaters, and ap-
pears to be an undescribed species. The name of MWenopon perale
was given toit. Itis 24% lines in length and of a chestnut-brown
color. The head is broader than long, semilunar, with a black
spot on each side in advance of the pair of eyes. Prothorax nar-
rower than the head, with a lateral conical point. Abdomen nearly
twice the length of the head and thorax together ; terminal seg-
ment rounded and with a tuft of hairs on each side. Mandibles
strong and black.

On Parasitic Worms in the Shad.—Prof. Leidy stated that during
the last month he had received letters and specimens from New York,
Trenton, Norfolk, and elsewhere, with information that the shad,
this season, was much infested with worms. ‘Two of the writers,
physicians, had expressed apprehension in regard to the parasites,
and supposed that they had traced several cases of illness to the use
of shad which they suspected had been infested with the worms.
The worm has long been known in Europe as a parasite of the
herring, mackerel, cod, salmon, and other food fishes. It is the
Filaria capsularia of Rudolphi, or the Agamonema capsularia of
Diesing. Prof. L. had described it in the Proceedings of this Academy
in 1856, from the shad and herring, and had repeatedly observed it
in the same fishes every year since. It usually infests the internal
organs, and is often observed excapsulated in a close coil upon the
roes, the intestines, and the liver. It is from half an inch to an inch
or more long. Most individuals have a few of the parasites, and
sometimes they are exceedingly numerous. They appear not to
affect the health of the fishes unless they are very numerous, when
I50 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
they impoverish their hosts. Prof. L. believed that they did not
affect the wholesomeness of the fish as food, and perhaps when cooked
with the fish were equally good and nutritious. Like others, he felt
an antipathy to the worms, and he was in the habit of scraping them
off from the roes of smoked herring before eating these. He took
the opportunity of adding, what was already well known to natu-
ralists, that most animals are infested with parasites, which were
transmitted by feeding on one another. The remedy against trans-
mission was heat. He who uses only well-cooked meats need have
no apprehension of worms from such food.

Notices of Gordius in the Cockroach and Leech.—Prof. Leidy ex-
hibited a Gordius, which had been submitted to him by Dr. Robert
Meade Smith, of this city, with the note that ‘‘a servant killed a
large cockroach (Alatta orientalis ?) in the kitchen, and threw it into
a tumbler of water, and had then noticed, as she described it, one
of its legs growing and swimming off.’’ The Gordius is nine inches
long, chocolate brown, with darker spots of the same, attenuated
anteriorly with the head rounded, and the tail spiral and at the end
slightly compressed and roundly truncated. Thickness of the worm
anteriorly 1-5th of a line; posteriorly 2-5thsof a line. The species
is probably Gordtus aquaticus.
Prof. Leidy further remarked that twenty years ago he had col-
lected from Lily Pond, R. I., a number of little leeches, of two
species of Clepsize, which were much infested with delicate hair-
worms coiled up in the interior of the body. The Clepsines were
the fourth to the third of an inch in length. The most frequent of
the species had two eyes; the other had three pairs of eyes. The
leeches contained from one to five of the hair-worms, ranging from
10 lines to two inches in length. The worms appear to pertain to
a species of Gordius, which, from its slender character, may be
named Gordius tenuis. ‘The worm is white or cream-colored, but
has become brown as preserved in alcohol. It is attenuated ante-
riorly, with the head end tapering and conical. ‘The posterior end
is curved, thickened, and obtusely rounded. A short cesophagus
is succeeded by a simple, straight, capacious intestine imperforate
at the posterior extremity. A worm of two inches in length meas-
ured 0.06 mm. near the head end, 0.14 mm. at the middle, and 0.12
mm. at the tail end. A specimen ro lines long measured at the
middle 0.1 mm. thick.

Notice of a Tetrarhynchus.—Prof. Leidy stated that in the Remora,
or Sucker, from our coast, presented this evening by Mr. Holbrook,
he had found a curious parasite. This was inclosed in a compressed
oval cyst, pearly white, thick-walled, and about half an inch long,
tightly adherent to the intestine of the fish. The cyst contained a
flask-shaped, translucent whitish sac, which was feebly contractile
and furnished at the narrow end with two minute papilla, which
were slowly protruded and retracted. Within this sac-worm, coiled
up about the center, was an opaque white worm or scolex, which
proved to be a 7etrarhynchus. Removed and extended, it measured
7 lines long and was divisible about equally into a broad anterior
body portion and a posterior narrow tail-like portion. The head
was formed of a pair of obcordate bothria inclined from each other.
Four long tortuous proboscides extended through the body and pro-
jected from the head. The projecting portions were successively
elongated and shortened by eversion and inversion and were armed
with recurved hooks. The hooks extended within half the length
of the proboscides and, as they were everted and inverted, appeared
like the streaming of liquid through narrow tubes. The tortuous
proboscides at the bottom were continuous with as many elliptical
pedestals placed at the back part of the body. The tail, about half
the width of the body, was not segmented, but exhibited a disposi-
tion to assume this condition. The end was slightly tapering and
occupied by a bell-shaped sinus opening externally and alternately
contracting and expanding. The interior of the sinus was lined
and its mouth thickly furnished with non-vibratile cilia. The spe-
cies appeared to be undescribed and was named 7e/rarhynchus tenui-
caudatus.
[December, 1878. No. 466. See Bibliography. |
On Tenia Mediocanellata.—Prof. Leidy exhibited two specimens
of tape-worms, 7@nia mediocanellata, both retaining the head. These
had been recently submitted to him for examination by Dr. James J.
Levick and Dr. Walter P. Atlee. Tape-worm appears not to be a
common affection with us. Several physicians, in extensive prac-
tice in this city, had informed him that they never had a case.
During the last ten or fifteen years from one to two specimens an-
nually had been submitted to him, but the present year he had seen
five specimens. He had been surprised to find that all pertained to
the species indicated. Formerly he supposed that our common
152 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
species was the 7e@zia solium, but later experience would indicate
that the Zenza mediocancllata is the morecommon. The distinction
between the two had been observed only comparatively recently, so
that no doubt many specimens formerly attributed to the former
actually b2longed to the latter.
When the head is present the two species are readily distinguished.
The 7enia solium, whose larval form is found in the ‘‘ measle’’ of
pork, has the head provided with a crown of hooks. 7@xia medio-
cancllata, derived from beef and mutton, has a larger head, which is
unarmed. The ripe segments are also usually readily distinguished
in the two species. In the 7. mediocanellata the ovaries are divided
into many more pouches than in 7. sodium.
In Dr. Levick’s case the man had been in the habit of eating raw
buffalo meat. In one of the specimens exhibited the suckers of the
head appeared as black spots, from the black pigment on their inte-
rior surface. The genital apertures were also black from the same
cause. In the other specimen the head appeared less black from
pigment about and around the position of the suckers, and the
genital apertures do not appear black.

On Donax Fosser.—Prof. Leidy remarked that last July, while on
a visit to Cape May, N. J., he had observed on the beach, near low
tide, east of the town, in many positions, vast numbers of the little
lamellibranch mollusks, Dona. fosser, of Say. It is well named the
‘‘Digger’’ from the ease and rapidity with which it digs its way
into the sand by means of its powerful foot. It lives in the surface
sand and is uncovered by the surf breaking on the shore, but in-
stantly buries itself again as the waves retire. In some places the
little Digger was so abundant that large patches reminded him ‘‘ of
barley grains lying on a matting floor,’’ and they lay so thick as
actually to interfere with one another in the attempt to bury them-
selves. As indicated by Mr. Say, they present two varieties, one
in which the shell is white, the other in which it is straw-colored.
The shells generally exhibit an interior livid tint in three rays, suc-
cessively widening from before backward. The rays are sometimes
feeble or nearly obsolete; the anterior one is the most persistent
and the posterior one least so. ‘The siphons are long and actively
protruded and retracted, looking in their movements like wriggling
worms. The Digger affords a bountiful supply of food to shore
birds and fishes.
As is so frequently the case with crowded communities, the Digger
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 153
is uch infested with parasites. From half a dozen to several dozen
Flukes are found in the liver, and a ciliated infusorian in the
branchial cavity.
The Fluke is a minute larval Distomum, with the following char-
acters: Oval, obovate, clavate, or nine-pin like ; head rounded, with
a conspicuous nipple-like papilla on each side (which, when seen
in the lateral view of the animal, gives the appearance of a beak to
the head) ; tail obtuse, with a minute terminal pore. Integument
finely granulate, the granules arranged in alternating transverse
series. Oral acetabulum twice the size of the ventral, which is cen-
tral or nearly so. Mouth large, unarmed. Pharynx minute, with
a short, narrow gullet, ending in two pouch-like stomachs, which
extend to the ventral acetabulum. A distinct body cavity, with no
other contained organs than those just mentioned. A small orifice
occupies the median line nearly midway between the acetabula; but
no appearance of generative apparatus. Length of animal in the
contracted state .24 mm. ; width .15 mm. ; length in the elongated
state to.36and.42 mm.; width.og mm. Oral acetabulum .o72 mm.;
ventral acetabulum .o42 mm. The species may be named Distomum
cornifrons.
It is probable that this little Fluke undergoes its further develop-
ment in some of the shore birds or fishes which use the Dona.x fosser
as food.
The infusorian infesting the Digger is a /vichodina, resembling
that which is found on the //ydra or fresh-water polyp, and which
is also stated by Stein to live on the gills of the pike and the fins of
the stickleback. The 7Zyichodina is bell-shaped, with a wreath of
cils near the top and a circle of cils at the margin beneath. It is
.048 mm. broad and from .035 to .036 mm. high. Though living
on 1 marine mollusk, it too nearly resembles the 7vichodina pediculus
of fresh-water animals for him to think of giving it another name.

On Gordius and on some Parasites of the Rat.—Prof. Leidy exhib-
ited a curious knotted mass of living hair-worms, Gordius robustus ?
which had been sent to him by Dr. S. T. Roman, of Conowingo,
Cecil county, Md. The mass had been picked up in a gutter at the
edge of a forest near Conowingo, on a rainy morning of December
15, 1878. It contained 52 male individuals and 7 females. The
former ranged from 8 to 25 centimeters in length by ™% to 2-3ds of
a millimeter in thickness; the latter range from 14 to 19% centi-
meters in length by 1 millimeter in thickness. The females are
154 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
generally of much lighter color and more robust character than the
males. In both sexes the body is most attenuated anteriorly, but in
the female the body is nearly as thick at the posterior extremity as
it is at the middle. Some of the smaller males are pale brownish-
white, but most of them, from the smallest to the largest, are of
various shades of brown to chocolate-brown. ‘The females are pale
brownish to darker brownish. In both sexes the head forms a con-
vex, whitish eminence, encircled bya narrow black ring, from which
a band of brown extends dorsally and ventrally along the body.
The posterior end of the body is likewise of darker color than the
part just in advance.
The tail of the male makes a spiral turn inwardly, and is furcate.
The forks are short, curved, slightly divergent, blunt conical pro-
cesses. Just in advance of their conjunction internally there exists
an inverted crescentic fold of browner color than the contiguous
parts, and immediately in advance is the genital pore. The interval
of the caudal forks is smooth or free from papille.
The tail of the female appears truncated ; is bluntly rounded,
feebly clavate, or slightly thicker than just in advance, and nearly
as thick as the middle of the body. It presents a terminal pore,
marked by a brown spot and encircled with a brown ring.
Under a moderate magnifying power the brown integument is
minutely mottled with whitish spots, and it exhibits fine longitudinal
and diagonal striation. In sunlight it is beautifully iridescent, as
in the earth-worm.
The worms are still quite lively. When disentangled and left
alone they soon become again knotted together in a compact rounded
mass, as at present, with the heads divergent and writhing so as to
remind one of the head of the fabled Medusa.
Prof. Leidy then directed attention to several other specimens
which had been sent to him for information. One of these is a
bunch of tapeworms, 15 individuals of 7nia diminuta, from the
intestine of a rat. The other is the liver of a rat with a multitude
of cysts the size of large peas, containing Cysticercus fasciolaris. In
a letter accompanying the specimens Dr. John R. Hewett states
that last spring he had examined about 500 rats (.J/us decumanus )
in Carroll county, Md , and only in half a dozen instances did he
find the liver free from the parasite.

On Bothriocephalus Latus.—Prof. Leidy exhibited specimens of a
tapeworm which had been submitted to him for determination by
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 155
Dr. John T. Walker. The specimens consisted of about a dozen
portions of what appeared to have been four or five individuals, all
of them, unfortunately, without the head. They were discharged
by a man aged 28 years, formerly a farmer, a native of Sweden, who
came to this country about three months since. At irregular inter-
vals during the last five years the patient passed fragments of a few
inches of the worm. According to Dr. Walker, the collective meas-
uremeuts of the specimens presented he had estimated to be upwards
of 100 feet. In their contracted condition, as preserved in alcohol,
none of the mature segments measured over 4 mm. in length by
ro mm.in breadth. These are quite characteristic of Bothriocephalus
/atus. The egg pouches of the uterus, centrally situated, are ren-
dered distinct from the ripe eggs, which gives to them a chocolate-
brown appearance. The genital apertures are in the median line,
nearer the anterior border of the segments. In 7nia the genital
apertures are at the lateral margin of the segments.
The specimens were regarded as of special interest from the cir-
cumstance that they were the first of the Lothriocephalus latus that
Prof. I,. had had the opportunity of seeing from a person living in
our country.

Notices of some Small Animals on the Coast of New Jersey.—Prot.
Leidy exhibited a valve of the beach-clam, .Wactra solidissima, which
he picked up among the numerous dead and bleaching shells of
Brigantine Beach, N. J. It attracted his attention from its appar-
ently having a fungus growing upon it. The fungus-like excres-
cence presented a remarkable resemblance to a Polyporus growing
from the stem of a tree. It isan outgrowth from the lip of the
shell, evidently dependent on an abnormal condition of the mantle
of the living animal.
Prof. Leidy also stated that he had picked up on the beach at
Atlantic City, N. J., another valve of the beach-clam, which had
been recently cast on shore. The inner surface of the shell was
covered with a multitude of the beautiful ciliated infusorian, /7veia
ampulla. 'The little creatures were still alive, and their curved,
flask-like cases were of a deep green color.
Prof. Leidy further remarked that while at Atlantic City Mr.
Phillips had directed his attention to two interesting animals re-
cently collected. One of these he recognized as the 4icidium para-
stticum, a parasitic anemone or Actina, found on the large jelly-fish
Cyanea arctica, so frequently thrown on shore. The other was a
156 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
parasite of the shrimp, Palemonetes vulgaris, which he recognized
as the curious Isopod, 4opyrus. Many of the shrimps were infested
with the parasite, the presence of which produced a conspicuous
hemispherical tumor on one side of the carapace.
{October, 1879. No. 477. See Bibliography. |
On Amoeba hlatte.—Prot. Leidy remarked that while perusing
the communication of Prof. Btitschli on ‘‘ Flagellata and other re-
lated organisms”? (Beitrage zur Kenntniss der Flagellaten und
einiger verwandten Organismen), in the Zeitschrift fiir wissenschaft-
liche Zoologie, 1878, 205, his attention was especially attracted by
the description of a parasitic amoeboid living in the intestine of the
cockroach, Alatta orientalis. It recalled to mind that he had ob-
served the same creature a number of years ago in association with
the ciliated infusorian he had described as Nyctotherus ovalis. At
that time he had viewed it as a young form of a Gregarina, and had
intended giving it and other parasites of the cockroach more critical
examination, but failed to do so. The parasitic 4moeba blatte is
particularly interesting on account of its habit and its peculiar char-
acter. Prof. L. had recently examined some cockroaches, and found
abundance of the amoeboid in association with Vyctotherus ovalis,
Lophomonas blattarum, Oxyurus gracilis, and O. appendiiulatus and
an algoid plant.
The amoeboid, he thought, was worthy of a generic distinction
from the true Amoeba, holding a position between this and Prof-
amoeba. From the former it differed in the absence of a contractile
vesicle and, commonly, also of vacuoles, and in the want of differ-
entiation of endosare and ectosarc, and from the latter in the posses-
sion of a well-defined nucleus. He proposed for it the following
name, with distinctive characters :
-:ndamoeba.—General character and habit of 4imocba ; composed
of colorless, homogeneous, granular protoplasm in the ordinary
normal, active condition, without distiction of ectosarec and endosarc ;
with a distinct nucleated nucleus, but ordinarily with neither con-
tractile vesicle nor vacuoles.

lobate forms, mostly clavate and moving with the broader pole in
advance. Protoplasm finely granular, and when in motion more or
less distinctly striate. Nucleus spherical, granular, with a large
nucleolus. Distinct food particles commonly few or none. Size of
globular forms 0.054 mm. to0.075 mm. in diameter ; elongated forms
0.075 mm. by 0.06 mm. to 0.15 mm. by 0.09. Parasitic in the large
intestine of Alatta orientalis.
The Andamoeba blatte affords a good example of a primitive active
nucleated organic corpuscle, or a so-called organic cell without a cell
wall, Inthe encysted condition it would be a complete nucleated
organic cell. Hndamceba may be recommended as a convenient
illustration of a primitive form of the organic cell on account of its
comparatively ready access.

Notice of the Cruel Thread Worm, Filaria immitis, of the Dog.—
Prof. Leidy directed attention to a specimen, presented by Mrs.
Laura M. Towne, of Beaufort, S. C., consisting of the heart and
part of one lung of a dog, containing thread worms. ‘The right ven-
tricle of the heart and the pulmonary artery contained a bunchof the
parasites, and several also were contained in the lung. A similar
specimen, with the ventricle literally stuffed full of worms, is pre-
served in the Museum of the University of Pennsylvania. ‘The par-
asite was described thirty years ago, in the proceedings of this Acad-
emy, under the names of /7/aria Canis cordis and Filaria immilis (see
Proc. 1850, 118; 1856, 2, 55), and since has been repeatedly noticed
by observers as infesting the dog in Europe, India, China, Japan,
and this country.

Ona Filaria Reported to have come from a Man.—Prof. Leidy ex-
hibited a large thread-worm, which had been submitted to his exam-
ination by Dr. J. J. Woodward, U.S. A. It was recently presented
to the Army Medical Museum, at Washington, by Dr. C. L. Gar-
nett, of Buffalo, Putnam Co., W. Va. Accompanying this speci-
men is the copy of a letter from Dr. Garnett to Dr. Woodward, from
which the following is an abstract: ‘‘ During the winter of 1876 a
man, a common laborer, aged about fifty, presented himself to me
for treatment having a gleety discharge from the urethra, with a
burning sensation during and after micturition. Previously he had
been treated for gonorrhcea, and I prescribed accordingly. The
patient, not improving, applied to other practitioners. In April,
158 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
1878, he came to me with a round, vivid-red worm, twenty-six
inches in length (the specimen you now possess), and very active in
its movements, instantly coiling up like a watch-spring on being
touched. Having no work on helminthology for reference, the only
description I found which appeared to answer to the worm was that
of Strongylus gigas, in Niemeyer, vol. ii, p. 47. The patient is an
illiterate man, with no motive for deception. He informed me that
he discovered the worm protruding from his penis and drew it out
without pain or difficulty. He was in much agitation and alarm
about the occurrence, fearing, as he said, that ‘‘ there might be more
behind that one.’’ For a few days previous to its passage his urine
was of ainilky hue and some time subsequently of a yellow cast and
slightly tinged with blood and mingled with mucus. The man is
truthful, and no doubt exists in my mind or in the minds of his
neighbors as to the correctness of his statements. I regret exceed-
ingly that I did not appreciate the scientific interest of the subject,
and send you the specimen in a fresh state, but the busy routine of
a country practitioner’s life leaves no time for the study of other
than subjects of practical value in one’s every-day experience.’’
The worm preserved in alcohol is much coiled, of a clay color,
and opaque or only feebly translucent, but more so at the head end.
If it is really a human parasite it appears to differ from all those
heretofore described, and also seems different from other known
parasites. It certainly is neither Austrongylus gigas nor is it the
Guinea-worm, /ilaria medinensis, though nearly related to this.
Its characters are as follows: Body long, restiform, nearly uni-
formly cylindrical, smooth, shining, elastic, tough, without evident
annulation other than transverse wrinkling, with the anterior ex-
tremity evenly tapering in the continuous head, the end of which
is rounded and smooth or without appendages of any kind; the
posterior extremity not tapering, with the caudal end incurved,
bluntly rounded, without appendages and imperforate or without
evident anal or genital aperture. Mouth a terminal pore without
lips, papillae, or armature of any kind. Pharynx cylindrical and
opening into a straight cylindrical intestine, apparently ending in a
blind pouch. Generative organs unobserved. Length of worm 26
inches ; greatest thickness 1.5mm. Width of head just behind the
rounded extremity 0.375 mm. ; opposite the commencement of the
intestine 0.625 min, ; at the middle 1.5 mm. ; at the incurved caudal
extremity 1.5mm. Length of cesuphagus 1.125.
The worm, of exceedingly simple character, is clearly neither a
Gordius nor a Wermis, and though apparently more nearly allied to

Filaria, a more intimate knowledge of its structure may prove it to
be different. For the present it was proposed to distinguish it with
the name of //aria restiformis. (Drawing. )

PARASITES OF THE TERMITES.*
GREGARINA.
Gregarina Termitis. Plate 52, Fig. 27.
A small Gregarina was once noticed in our Termite, and is repre-
sented in Fig. 27. The body is ovoid with the narrower end poste-
rior. The head spheroid compressed from above downward. Length
0.06 mm.; head o.o18 mm. long, 0.03 broad ; body 0.036 mm. broad.
Of the vegetal parasites found in association with the animal forms,
within the small intestine of our Termite, there are two kinds; one
a species of vibrio, the other an attached algoid, to which I formerly
gave the name of dArthromitus.
VIBRIO.
Vibrio Termitis. Plate 52, Figs. 36-39.
Vibrios occur in great numbers as an associate of 7vichonympha
and Dinenympha. ‘They resemble most nearly the | 7ério serpens of
Muller, as described by Dujardin, Cohn, and others. Under the
highest powers of the microscope at my command, one-tenth objec-
tive of Wailes, of Smith and Beck, and No. 11 immersion objective
of Hartnack, they appear as immeasurably fine lines, usually rang-
ing from 0.03 mm. to 0.045 mm. in length ; but, in extreme, ranging
from 0.015 to 0.06 mm. in length. They usually appear rectilinear
and regularly undulant, with from three to five or six waves. They
commonly remain stationary in position and undulate more or less
rapidly, but they often advance or recede with variable rapidity, and
sometimes become quiescent. Occasionally they bend at an obtuse
angle while continuing to undulate, and sometimes they become zig-
zag. Mostly they wave with regularity, sometimes irregularly, and
occasionally the ordinary number of their waves is doubled. The
smallest individuals, 0.015 mm. in length, are straight, but in move-
ment become bent in the segment of a circle or become sigmoid.
The vibrios move in all directions among their associates. Not
unfrequently numbers adhere together by one end and form radiating
groups, as represented in Fig. 38.

Filaria of the Black Bass.—Prof. Leidy stated that he had been
told that the black bass, WWicropterus nigricans, in some localities is
much infested with a red thread worm. One procured in market a
few days since for his table was found to be greatly infested. The
worms were coiled in oval masses from the size of a pea to that of a
large bean, and were situated beneath the skin, in the muscles, and
under the membrane lining of the abdomen. The worm is cylin-
drical, slightly narrowed, and obtusely rounded at both ends,
minutely annulate and otherwise smooth, pale red, bright red, or
brownish red, translucent, with the darker red or brownish intestine
and the white cesophagus shining through. Mouth a small pore,
unarmed ; anus a transverse elliptical pore, terminal. Csophagus
long, capacious, cylindrical, straight or somewhat tortuous, slightly
expanded below where it is constricted from the intestine, which is
likewise expanded at the commencement, and ends in a short, more
translucent rectum. Ovarium and ova indistinctly seen. Length
from 3 to 6 inches by half a line in diameter.
The worm appears to be a /i/aria, but the determination of the
species was left for more extended observation.

‘On Balanoglossus, etc.—Prof. Leidy stated that in a recent trip to
Atlantic City he had observed the singular worm Aalanoglossus
aurantiacus. It occurs in moderate numbers along the shore of a
pond between the beach and the lighthouse. In the same position
he had collected Solenxens?s, specimens of which were presented this
evening. As this occurred in considerable number, he had procured
a sufficient quantity to try it as an article of food, and had found it
to make excellent soup. In the vicinity he had picked up a number
of specimens of Actinia rapiformis, which had been recently thrown
upon the beach. On a former occasion, at Atlantic City, he had
observed another Actinia, the Bicidium parasiticum, which is para-
sitic on the large jelly-fish, Cvanea arctica, so frequently thrown on
shore during the summer.

which he had previously noticed alanoglossus. Whether it was
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY 161
there at the time of his former visit he was unable to say, as the
animal is as transparent as the water in which it lives, and may
easily escape observation. His attention was accidently directed to
its discovery. Along the edge of the pond there were numerous
linear white bodies, flaccid and motionless, which he at first took
for fragments of a bleached alga. From the uniformity of their
size he stooped to examine them more closely, when he noticed
others in the water, more transparent, lying on the sand and occa-
sionally moving suddenly and so actively as to send a little spray
above the surface. On transferring some of these bodies to a vial
he detected their nature. Subsequently the water was seen to swarm
with the little creatures. They were exceedingly sensitive, and
quickly die after removal. In life they were perfectly transparent
and colorless, and move actively at intervals with a sort of spasmodic
jerk, bending the tail downward and darting forward. After death
they become flaccid, dull, and white, and hence the appearance of
the muititude of dead ones on the shore.
The Sagi¢fa is interesting as being one of those peculiar animals
which have puzzled naturalists as to its exact relative position. It
is now usually regarded as the representative of an order of worms
with the name of Chetoguatha.
A species, Sagitta elegans, has been described by Prof. Verrill as
occurring at Wood’s Holl, Vineyard Sound, and Gay Head, on the
New England coast, and he refers to a second undetermined species
occurring in Vineyard Sound.
The Sagitfa of Atlantic City appears to differ from the former,
and also from all other described species found elsewhere, and may
be readily distinguished from them by its greater number of man-
dibular hooks. It may be characterized as follows:
Sagitta Falcidens.—Animal transparent, colorless; body com-
pressed, elongated fusiform, with two pairs of lateral hemi-elliptical
fins, separated by intervals from each other and the broad obcordate
caudal] fin, which is truncated posteriorly. Head obcordate, about
as broad as it is long. Pre-ordal series of spines, 6 or 7 in each,
minute ; postoral series. 18 in each, successively decreasing. Man-
dibular hooks, from 11 to 14 in each series, usually 12, besides an
immature one, scythe-shaped, yellowish brown in color. Length
about 3-4ths of an inch, width 1% to 2 mm. Head 1 mm.; caudal
fin 1.5 to 1.75 mm. wide. Mandibular hooks 0.75 mm. long.
At the same time as previously numerous mounds of the Lalano-
glossus aurantiacus were observed. There were also noticed in the
same pond many projecting tubes of sand, which were found to

contain Clymena torquata. Further, several specimens of G/ycera
americana were collected. On the shore of the pond in one place
Donax fosser appeared to have its residence, and among So/enensis a
single living So/ecurtus gibbus was found.

On some Entozoa of Birds.—Prof. Leidy directed attention to
some specimens presented by Joseph Willcox, recently collected by
him in Florida. One of the specimens is the head of a Snake-bird,
Plotus anhinga, with a worm in sight, lying upon the brain, while
several other detached worms of the same kind lay at the bottom of
the vial. The worm in its singular habitation was discovered by
Prof. Wyman in Florida in 1861 and 1867, an account of which is
given in the Proceedings of the Boston Society of Natural History,
volume 12, 1868. Prof. Wyman had kindly presented Prof. Leidy
with a specimen of the head of the Snake-bird, with the worms
lying on the brain. This he had valued as a memento of his friend,
but it had unfortunately been lost in the fire at Swarthmore College
last autumn. Prof. Wyman states that the parasites were found
coiled on the back of the cerebellum between the arachnoid and pia
mater. ‘The number varied from two to six or eight, or even more.
In nineteen birds they were detected in seventeen. Mr. Wilcox
found the parasites in four out of six birdsexamined. In the pres-
ent specimen of a head a single worm is enclosed between the two
laminze of the dura mater over the position of the interval of the
cerebrum and cerebellum. As the parasite appears not to have
been named, it was suggested that the name of its discoverer should
be associated with it under the name Filaria wymant.
The accompanying four vials contain numbers of wornis obtained
from the stomachs of the Snake-bird, the Cormorant, Graculus dilo-
phus,; the White Pelican, Pelecanus trachyrhynchus, and the Brown
Pelican, P. fuscus. All prove to be of the same species, the Ascaris
spiculigera. Specimens of these were also formerly obtained by
Samuel Ashmead in Florida from the White Pelican (Proc. Ac.
Nat. Sci., 1858, 112). ‘The same likewise have been submitted for
examination by Dr. Elliott Coues, who procured them from the
White Pelican on the Red River of the North. See Birds of the
Northwest, 1874, 587.

On Bacillus Anthracis.—Prof. Leidy stated that Dr. Robert Glad-
felter, veterinary surgeon, had submitted to his examination a bottle

of blood from a cow. The animal, apparently well on Wednesday,
May 1o, and milked the same evening, died the next morning. The
cause was not clear, but was suspected to be the result of anthrax,
charbon, or splenic fever. During the past year a number of cows
in the same herd had died in a similar manner in Salem Co., N. J.
A post-mortem examination was made the following day, and the
abdominal viscera were found much conjested, especially the spleen,
which was gorged with blood. The specimen of blood obtained
from the spleen was examined the next day, Friday. It teemed
with bacteria, the peculiar form, Bacillus anthracis, which is now
viewed by most competent authorities as the cause of the frightful
affection known as anthrax or splenic fever. The bacilli were
actually more numerous than the blood corpuscles, which appeared
unchanged. The bacilli were completely motionless, straight, bent,
or zigzag filaments ; in the latter condition in pairs or more segments.
They measured from 0.006 to 0.042 mm. in length; usually from
0.012 to 0.03 mm. Kept for some days in the blood, the filaments
underwent division into little chains in two, three, or more dumb-
bells, which measure about 0.005 mm _, or into isolated micrococci-
like particles about 0.0015 mm. Many, however, of the filaments
did not resolve themselves into these minute particles, but appeared
only to grow in length and divide into segments of about 0.012 mm.

On Enchytreus, Distichopus, and their Parasites.—Prof. Leidy re-
marked that occasionally in lifting a flower-pot, or in stirring the
earth within, attention is sometimes attracted by the sudden wrig-
gling of a little white worm disturbed from its rest. In the Archiv
fur Anatomie, 1837, Henle has given an elaborate description of the
worm, and named it Awchytreus in reference to its familiar habita-
tion. The little pot worm is common in our vicinity, especially in
damp forests under decaying leaves and timber. It was first noticed
in 1773 from Denmark by O. E. Muller, and in 1880 from Green-
land by Fabricius. It has also been observed in France and Ger-
many, and therefore the little worm appears to extend over the
northern parts of Europe and America.
The same worm I have found in the meadows of Atlantic City, New
Jersey, in the usual haunts of MZelampus bidentatus and Orchestia
agilis. In mature specimens, about three-fourths of an inch in
length, the girdle is well produced, and the body has ten setigerous
segments in advance of it and about forty-five behind it. The short-
164 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
pointed setapeds in four longitudinal rows are in fascicles of three
or four to each in advance of the girdle and two or three to each
behind it.
In the Lnxchyireus of our forests I have repeatedly observed an
infusorial parasite occupying the body cavity, sometimes in consid-
erable numbers, mingled with the normal discoid corpuscles. I
propose to name it 4dxoplophrya modesta. In the Anchytreus of the
meadows of Atlantic City I observed a different infusorian occupying
the same cavity, remarkable for its great proportionate length. This
I propose to name Anoplophrya funiculus.
Wishing to ascertain whether the latter did not likewise infest the
Enchytreus of our neighboring forests I recently collected a number
of little worms at Media, Delaware county, Pa. These I obtained
from beneath a stone lying in my path toSwarthmore College. They
appeared to be robust specimens of Axchytreus vermicularis, for which
I took them to be. Investigation at home proved them to be differ-
ent and generically distinct from previous known forms. The worms
possess but two rows of setapeds, instead of four, as in most others
of the family. Hoffmeister and Gruby described the genus /%7coryctes
as having only two rows of setapeds, but Leydig has shown this to
be an error. In view of the error, I carefully repeated my exami-
ination of the little worms from Media, and am convinced that they
possess two rows of setapeds, while in Axchytreus I always found
four. So much do the former otherwise resemble the latter that it
would appear as if they formed a genus directly evolved from Axchy-
‘reus merely by the suppression of a pair of the four rows of setapeds.
The new genus presents the following characters, and may be
indicated by the accompanying name :
Distichopus.—Form and color as in /xchytreus, with a well-pro-
duced girdle. Setapeds in a single row on each side ventrally, in
divergent fascicles of four in advance of the girdle and of three
behind it.
Distichopus Silvestris.—Body cylindrical, white, translucent, with
a well-produced girdle of whiter color. Upper lip short, conical
blunt; anal segment thicker than the penultimate, brownish and
punctate ; anus quinquiradiate. Ten setigerous segments in advance
of the girdle, with fascicles of usually three or four setapeds ; fifty-
five setigerous segments behind the girdle, with usually two or three
setapeds. Oral and anal segments without setapeds. Setapeds
shorter and stouter than in Aynchytreus vermicularis, curved at the
root, swollen at the middle, and straight towards the point. Length
from nine to fifteen lines.
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 165
I observed no infusorian in Distichopus, but in most of those ex-
amined there were found minute Gregarines allied to the A/onocystis
of the earth worms, uwmbricus. This parasite was perfectly quies-
cent, and was especially remarkable for its frequently containing a
variable number of curved elliptical bodies, which I suspect to be
spores. Viewing it as a species of J/onocystis, it may thus be briefly
characterized :
Monocystis Mitis. Gregarina -knchytraci ? Kolliker. Body fusi-
form, tapering posteriorly and usually acute, anteriorly obtuse or
produced into a short mammilla; contents of the usual granular
protoplasm as in gregarines, wit a central spherical nucleus and
nucleolus. Size ranging from .o3 mm. to .12 mm. in length. In
the smallest individuals the nucleus was indistinct and in some
appeared to be absent. The larger ones mostly contained what I
supposed to be spores. These are curved elliptical bodies .o15 mm.
long by .0045 wide, and were collected in a group of usually two or
three to seven or eight, sometimes in advance of the nucleus and
sometimes behind it. (Drawing.) The two dxoplophrya above in-
dicated have the following characters :
Anoplophrva Modesta. Leucophrys. Jour. Ac. Nat. Se., 1850, 49,
pl. 2, fig. 17. Elongated elliptical, anteriorly rounded, posteriorly
somewhat truncated, usually from three to five times the length of
the breadth ; nucleus axial, cylindrical, straight, extending about
two-thirds the length of the body ; contractile vesicles variable in
number and usually in two longitudinal rows. Length from .o048
to.12mm.; breadth.or8to.o24mm. In state of transverse division
the pairs range from .054 to .15 mm. in length. Common and
numerous in the body cavity of Exchytreus vermicularis. (Drawing. )
Anoplophrya Funiculus.—Long, narrow, and ulna-like in shape,
from twenty to thirty times the length of the breadth; anterior
extremity slightly wider and very obliquely truncated and slightly
depressed ; posterior extremity bluntly rounded. Nucleus axial
bristle-like, appearing as a double continued line reaching from the
posterior end of the body and tapering to a single line in the pos-
terior part of the same. Contractile vesicles minute, in two rows,
variable in size and usually occupying the posterior part of the body.
Length 0.42 to 0.6 mm. by o.o18 to 0.024 mm. wide. Young
individuals 0.15 mm. long by 0.024 wide were tapering in front and
obtuse, while they were wider and rounded behind. Inhabiting the
body cavity of Anchytreus vermicularis from the meadows of the
Atlantic coast of New Jersey. (Drawing. )
In an earth worm, umdéricus, species undetermined and occurring

under logs in the forests in the vicinity of Philadelphia, I detected
another species of the above, which may be distinguished as follows:
Anoplophrya Melo.—Oval or ovoid, scarcely twice the length of
the breadth, with the narrower pole mucronate; nucleus axial,
cylindrical, sigmoid, about two-thirds the length of the body ; con-
tractile vesicles, usually one or two or none, large. Length 0.048
mm. to 0.08 mm.; breadth 0.032 to 0.04 mm. Pairs in state of
transverse division 0.08 by 0.036 mm. to 0.084 by 0.04 mm. In-
habiting the body cavity of Lumbricus?. (Drawing. )

On the Tobacco-worm, et..—Prof. Leidy exhibited a collection of
tobacco-worms, the larvee of Sphinx carolina, which he had obtained
two days ago from a tobacco field near Columbus, N. J., where
they were very abundant and had proved a great pest in the culti-
vation of tobacco. The worms collected presented a number of
well-marked varieties, which were supposed to be all of the same
species. The principal ones were indicated as follows :
1. Pea-green or yellowish-green, more or less finely hairy, with
lateral oblique white bands bordered above with black dots, which
extend to the dorsal median line ; head bright pea-green, dorso-
caudal spine red. This is the most common variety.
2. Pea-green, smooth, with lateral oblique white bands joined in
front below by horizontal white bands, so as to form a series of
V-like marks, the apex of each joining the lower limb of the one
in advance ; head green, dorso-caudal spine black.
3. Grass-green, smooth, with lateral white V-like marks as in
No. 2, the oblique bands bordered above by blackish or brownish ;
upper part, especially in front, more or less dotted with white ;
head green, with a pair of black bands on each side ; dorso-caudal
spine black.
4. Yellowish-green annulated with narrow black lines, with iat-
eral white V-like marks, the oblique bands bordered above with
black ; head bright pea-green, dorso-caudal spine red.
5. Dull green, with more or less brown dorsally, and dotted with
white, the dots more or less tuberculate, but otherwise smooth,
with lateral white V-like marks, the oblique band bordered above
with brown ascending to the dorsal median line; head green, with a
lateral pair of black bands ; dorso-caudal spine black.
6. Chocolate-brown to nearly black, smooth, with white dots
dorsally and anteriorly, with lateral white V-like marks; head shin-
ing black on each side, dorso-caudal spine shining black.

‘7, The same as No. 6, with lateral red V-like marks.
Among these more marked varieties others were noticed which
were more or less of an intermediate character. The most common
variety was that which was least distinguishable in color from the
animal’s location, the tobacco leaf, so that it was especially favored
in its preservation.
Prof. Leidy further remarked that the past season had appeared
to be favorable to many of the Lepidoptera. Our shade-trees had
been greatly ravaged by the Orgyia, many of the poplars had suf-
fered from the C/lostera inclusa, and be had observed an unusual
quantity of the Ailanthus silk-worm, Aéfacus cynthia, upon the
Ailanthus trees. The latter was introduced here in 1861 by Dr.
Thomas Stewardson.

ROTIFERA WITHOUT ROTARY ORGANS.’
The Rotifera or Wheel-animalcules form a small class, abundant
in kind and found almost everywhere in association with Alge,
and with Infusorians, to which they were formerly considered to
belong. Later they have been recognized as not having the simple
cell structure of the latter, and for a time were regarded as pertain-
ing to the Crustacea. They are now commonly looked upon as
belonging to the group of worms, but their relative position cannot
yet be considered as positively determined. They generally possess
a chitinous integument, with a more or less annulate disposition or
tendency to articulate division, but they are destitute of limbs.
Some are provided with a carapace, and recall crustacean forms,
but in other points they exhibit but little likeness to them. Their
usually striking characteristic, the rotary disks, from which they
are named, is not possessed by any well-marked Crustacean. Among
the Rotifera, however, there appear to be some which do not possess
the rotary organs, at least in the mature condition, and yet in all
other respects the animals conform in structure with ordinary forms.

A New Infusorian Belonging to the Genus Pyxicola.—Prof. Leidy
exhibited drawings of an infusorian, a species of Py.ricola, which

appeared to be different from those previously described. It is of
frequent occurrence, attached to the tubes of Plumatella, Urnatella,
and Cordylophora, on stones in the Schuylkill River below Fair-
mount dam. In shape it resembles Pyxicola pussilla and P. affints,
fresh-water forms of England, but is annulate, as in /. socialis, a
salt-water form. It is represented in Figs. 8 and 9, pl. II, and pre-
sents the following characters: (Drawing. )
Pyxtcola Annulata.—Lorico urceolate, slightly curved, inflated
toward the middle, tapering below, cylindrical and feebly con-
tracted at the neck, and with the aperture oblique and circular ;
variably annulate, mostly at the neck, often at the middle; color,
chestnut brown, but colorless when young. Pedicle short, always
colorless. The contained animalcule is of the usual shape, with an
attached operculum, which is of the same color as the lorica and is
protruded beyond this when the animal is fully extended. Length
of lorica 0.52 to 0.792 mm.; breadth 0.02 to 0.0264 mm.; length of
pedicle .004 to .oo8 mm.
[October, 1882. Nos. 502 and 504. See Bibliography. ]
Actinospherium Eichhornti.—Prof. Leidy remarked that he had
noticed in an aquarium what appeared to be eggs adherent to the
edges of the leaves of Vallisneria from the Schuylkill River. On
examining the egg-like bodies with a lens they were observed to be
covered with delicate rays. On transferring some of the bodies to
the field of the microscope, they proved to be giant specimens of the
larger sun-animalcule, Actinospherium eichhornii. ‘They measured
from three-fourths to one millimeter in diameter independent of the
rays, which extended from one-fourth to half a millimeter more.
One of the smaller individuals contained four water-fleas, Daphnias,
a third of a millimeter long, and one of the larger contained six of
these. The Actinospherium appears to be tenacious of life, several
specimens having been retained alive and in good condition for three
days in a drop of water in an animalcule cage. They had dis-
charged the Daphnias, but retained their original size. One of oval
form measured 1 mm. long by 0.75 mm. broad. The smaller ones
measured 0.75 mm. in diameter. After another day they appeared
in good condition, but the rays were contracted so as to be about
half the original length, and many had a minute granular ball at
the end, apparently effete matter thrown off from them. At this
time the animalcules were returned to the aquarium.

On the Reproductian and Parasites of Anodonta fluviatilis.—Prot.
Leidy directed attention to a basketful of living fresh-water mussels,
Anodonta fluviatilis, which were obtained for him through the kind-
ness of Rev. Jesse Y. Burke, and are now placed at the disposal of
members who wish to have them. They are fine, robust specimens,
the larger ones measuring 6 inches in length by 3 inches in height
and almost 21% inches thick. They were obtained from a little pond
occupying an old marl pit near Clarksboro, Gloucester Co., N. J.
These mussels appear to be exceedingly prolific. The pregnant
females have the branchial uteri, as they have been appropriately
named by Dr. Isaac Lea, enormously distended with perfected em-
bryos. These appear with a cinnamon-brown shell, having a con-
spicuous spinous tooth or hook to each valve, and are furnished with
long byssal threads. Wishing to ascertain the proportionate amount
of embryos, the following plan was adopted: In an individual 6
inches long the soft parts were weighed and found to be 135.44
grammes. The branchial uteri weighed 64 grammes and the inner
gills 7.34 grammes. Supposing the latter to be the same weight as
the outer gills, free from embryos, this weight subtracted would
leave 56.66 grammes as that of the embryos and 78.78 grammes as
the weight of the rest of theanimal. In another specimen, in which
the weight of the soft parts was 113.75 grammes, the branchial uteri
weighed 45.5 grammes and the inner gills 5.2 grammes. Subtracting
the weight of these would leave 40.3 grammes as the weight of the
embryos and 73.45 grammes for the rest of the animal. In another
specimen by weight and counting the embryos in a milligramme
were estimated to be 1,280,000.
The mussels are infested with many water mites creeping about
among the gills. The young of the same in various stages were
observed imbedded in the mantle. The mite appears to be identical
with the species 4/a.v_ypsilophorus, which is a parasite of the common
mussel, d4nodonta cygnea, of Europe. It was discovered and de-
scribed just 100 years ago, under the name Acarus ypsilophorus, by
Dr. Christopheri Gottlieb Bonz (Nova Acta Phys. Med. Acad.
See, C. Nat. Cur., Nuremberg, 1783, 52, Tab..1, figs. 1-4). -Itis
described and figured by Pfeiffer, with the name /7mnochares ano-
donte (Naturg. deutscher land und suss-wasser Molusken, 1821,
Taf. 1, fig. 12) ; by Dr. Karl Ernst v. Baer, under the name of //y-
drachne concharum (Nova Acta, Bonn, 1826, 590, Taf. XXxIXx, fig.
19); by P. J. Van Beneden (Mem. de 1’Acad. R. des sciences de
170 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
Belgique, XXIv, 1850), and by Ed. Claparede ( Zeits. f. wiss. Zoologie,
1868, 445).
Dr. Bonz’s description, referring chiefly to the form, color, and
marking of the mite, applies to ours, and, further, he thought the
description of the details of Ciaparede applies sufficiently well to
the same.
The characters of our mite are, briefly, as follows :
Body ovoid, black, with a sulphur-yellow median line, often more
or less interrupted, forked in front and ending in an angular spot
behind. The yellow marking divides the black into a pair of lateral
reniform spots and an anterior irregular lozenge spot. Sides brown,
from the eggs shining through. Head gray, with dumb-bell eye
spots. Limbs gray, translucent, with the chitinous investment
bluish-black,. hirsute, ending in pairs of double falcate ungues.
Terminal joint of the palps ending in three minute uncinate den-
ticles. Anal plates of the females usually with about 18 to 20
acetabula to each. Length of body 1.375 to 1.75 mm. ; breadth
1.125 to 1.5 mm. Inhabits the branchiz and mantle of Azodonta
fluviatilis.
The colors depend mainly on the contents shining through the
transparent chitinous investment, which, under reflected light, ex-
hibits a bluish-black tint. Commonly the black color is intense,
and in alcoholic specimens the whole body is black. In several
individuals the black passed into a chocolate hue. Dr. Bonz de-
scribes the Kuropean mite as black, with the median dorsal mark
pale yellow ; Pfeiffer as red-brown, with a citron-yellow mark, and
Beneden says it shows a Y in white, from which it was named.
The number of acetabula to the anal plates is variable. In one
mite he found 23 to each plate, in a second 22 to each, in a third
22 to one and 17 to the other, and in a fourth 18 to one and 17 to
the other. Claparede gives from 15 to 20 as the number to each
plate in the European mite.
The variations of our mite from the characters given of the Eu-
ropean mite are such as occur among individuals of either. He
therefore saw nothing distinguishing ours as a different species.
Claparede describes another mite which infests the European Unios,
which he distinguishes under the name of 4/a.x donzi. The speaker
had also observed a different mite, infesting the common mussel,
Unio coniplanatus, of the Delaware river. Of this mite he exhibited
a drawing made in November, 1854. He suspected it to be the
Atax bonzi, but the question can only be more positively answered

after the examination of certain details; which he hoped soon to
have the opportunity of making.
If our two parasitic mites are identical with those of European
mussels, it not only makes it appear probable that they are of com-
mon origin, but renders it the more probable that this is likewise
the case with their hosts, even if these are not regarded as of the
same species.
Professor Leidy also exhibited a collection of body-lice, Pediculus
vestimenti, from Jews of Odessa, Russia, presented by Dr. A. G.
Stratton. They range in size from 1.25 to 3.875 mm. in length, and
appear in no respect to differ from those found on natives of our own
country.

MANAYUNKIA SPECIOSA.
‘At the time of the discovery of the pretty polyzoan, Urnatella
gracillis, of which a description is: now in course of publication in
the Journal of the Academy, I found an equally interesting little
annelide, of which I gave a brief notice in 1858, published in the
Proceedings for that year, page 90, under the name of Wanayunkia
speciosa. The two were found in company together. attached to some
stones, in the Schuylkill River, at Fairmount, Philadelphia. They
seem fitting associates, for while U/vzatel/a is nearly related with the
marine Pedicellina, Manayunkia is closely related with the marine
annelide Fadricta. Manayunkia has proved to be less frequent than
Urnatella, nor have I found it elsewhere than in the locality named.
Recently several specimens were submitted to my examination by
our fellow-member, Mr. Edward Potts, who found them attached to
a fragment of pine bark in Egg Harbor River, New Jersey. Inde-
pendent of the interest of finding the worm in a new locality, the
specimens have enabled me to complete an investigation of the animal
so far as to prepare the following description, though I have to re-
gret that the material has been insufficient to allow me to clear up
several important points. I have had the opportunity of comparing
Manayunkia with a species of Aaéricia living on our coast, and have
found the two to be so nearly alike that I am prepared to hear it
questioned whether the former should be regarded as generically
distinct from the latter.
Manayunkia forms a tube of mud, which it occupies. The tube
is composed of the finest particles, aglutinated by a mucoid secretion
of the worm. It is cylindrical, straight or bent, mostly even or
172 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
slightly uneven on the outside, and sometimes feebly annulated. It
is attached partly along its length to fixed objects, with the greater
part free, directed downward and pendent. Most specimens observed
were single, but several were found in which two or three tubes were
conjoined, and in one instance five tubes, with remains of others,
were given off in a candelabra-like manner from a common stem, as
represented in Fig. 2, plate IX. From the open mouth of the tube
the worm protrudes its head and spreads its crown of ciliated ten-
tacles in the same manner as in more tubicolous annelides. The
simple tubes range from two to four lines in length by the one-fifth
to the one-fourth of a line in width.
Manayunkia is very sensitive, and on disturbance withdraws deeply
into its tube, so that half the length of the latter may be removed
before reaching the worm. The little creature clings tightly to the
inside of its habitation, apparently mainly by means of the minute
podal hooks of the posterior segments of the body.
The mature worm (Fig. 1) is from three to four millimeters in
length by about one-fourth of a millimeter in breadth, and is divided
into twelve segments, including the head. The color is translucent,
olive green, with the cephalic tentacles of a slightly brownish hue.
As the worm shortens, the segments become more bulging laterally
and the constrictions deeper ; in elongation the segments become
more cylindrical and the constrictions less marked. When the
worm is elongated it is of nearly uniform width for about three-
fourths of the length, and then slightly tapers to the end, or is a
little widened again in the two segments before the last. The head
is about as broad as it is long, and is surmounted by a pair of lateral
lophophores supporting the tentacles. Its border above projects
dorsally into a short rounded process. The succeeding four seg-
ments of the body are about as broad as they are long, and nearly
of uniform size; the next one is somewhat longer than those in
advance. The seventh segment, in all the mature worms observed,
greatly exceeded any of the others. It was usually twice the length,
and differed from them in having an abrupt expansion at the fore
part, which suggested the production of a head prior to the division
of the worm ; a process, however, if it occurs in Wanayunkia, I had
not the opportunity of observing. The succeeding segments, smaller
than the anterior ones, differ little in size, except the last two. The
terminal segment abruptly tapers from above its middle to an ob-
tusely rounded extremity. When the worm protrudes from its
tube, the lophophores are reflected from the head, and they exhibit
a double row of tentacles extending forward. The number of ten-

tacles varies with the age of the worm, but at maturity there are
usually eighteen foreach lophophore. They are of moderate length,
and of uniform extent, and measure about half a millimeter. Two
of them internally, one for each lophophore, are rather longer and
larger than the others, and are rendered conspicuous by a large
vessel filled with bright green blood. The tentacles are invested
with ciliated epithelium, with actively moving cilia, and in all re-
spects bear a close resemblance to those of the polyzoa. In the
allies of J/anayunkia they are regarded as branchial appendages,
and usually named cirri; and although this is unquestionably cor-
rect, as in the case of the corresponding organs of the polyzoa, they
perform a varied function, and may, with equal correctness, be
called tentacles.
When J/anayunkia is about to withdraw into its tube, the lopho-
phores approach, and, together with the tentacles, form a close
longitudinal fascicle. Along the lophophores, at the base of the
tentacles, there is a row of half a dozen or more brownish pigment
spots, resembling eyes, but not having the usual constitution of
such organs. The segments of the body of Wanayunkia, succeeding
the head, are furnished on each side with a fascicle of locomotive
setze, which is divided into two portions, one usually consisting of
shorter setze than the other. ‘The fascicles, when most protruded,
project from a papilla, which disappears with the partial retraction
of the former. They are projected directly outward or in a slant-
ing manner either forward or backward, and are moved in the same
manner and by the same arrangement of muscles as in other chaeto-
pods. The number of podal sete is from four to ten in each fas-
cicle. In several mature individuals the numbers in the different
segments were as follows: 8 to 10 sete in the first to the sixth seg-
ment; 6 to 7 in the three succeeding ones, 4 or 5 in the tenth, and
3 or 4 in the last segment.
The setze, Figs. 3, 4, of the anterior segments are longest and
range from about 0.15 to 0.25 mm. in length. ‘They consist of a
long, straight rod, with a linear-lanceolate blade, tapering into a
long filament. ‘The rod varies little in length in the different setz,
but the blade varies considerably in this respect. The blade is
more or less bent from the rod and is longest in the long sete.
Except the head and the first setigerous segments, the others are
provided on each side with a fascicle of podal hooks, which are
situated ventrally behind the bottom of the podal sete. The hooks
are 4 or 5 in each fascicle in the setigerous segments from the sec-
ond to the eighth inclusive, and are very different from those of the
174 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
succeeding segments. The podal hooks, Fig. 5, of the anterior
segments are about 0.05 to 0.06 mm. long, and consist of a long,
curved handle, ending in a small recurved hook.
The podal hooks of the posterior three setigerous segments form
close transverse rows, Fig. 6, of variable number, from g to 24 in
each row. The hooks are minute, and measure from 0.025 to 0.03
mm. long. They consist of a broad handle, ending in a lateral
comb-like extremity, as represented in figure 7.
The number of podal setze and podal hooks is more or less vari-
able in the corresponding segments of different individuals, and
frequently, also, on the two sides of the segments of the same in-
dividual. The difference is due sometimes to the accidental loss of
some of the appendages; sometimes, probably, to circumstances
interfering with their development. In several specimens the fol-
lowing differences were observed :

In the last specimen the rows of 24 hooks in the ninth segment
measured 0.08 mm. wide ; the rows of 18 hooks of the tenth seg-
ment 0.072 mm. wide, and the rows of 14 hooks of the last segment
0.06 mm. wide. The height of the rows corresponding with the
length of the hooks was 0.025 mm.
The intestinal canal of J7anayunkia is of extreme simplicity, con-
sisting of a median tube alternately dilated within the segments and
contracted in the intervals of the latter, without any other conspicu-
ous division into more distinct portions. The widest expansions are
within the fourth to the seventh segment, inclusive, but are also
variable in these. Afterwards the intestine becomes narrower to
the anus, which opens ventrally in the last segment. The mouth is
funnel-like, capacious, and without armature of any kind. Along
the intermediate two-thirds of the canal the walls are of a yellowish
brown hue. Withinthe intestine in the seventh segment, and within
the terminal portion, active ciliary motion was observed. The in-
testine, as usual in other annelides, is connected by thin diaphragms
to the wall of the body cavity in the intervals of the segments. The
intervals are occupied with liquid with multitudes of floating cor-
puscles.
The ovaries, with ova in different stages, occupy the fourth tothe
sixth segment, inclusive. Within the lower part of the head, ex-
tending thence into the third segment on each side, there is a large
elliptical organ, which I have suspected to be the testicle, though I
did not examine its structure.
I was greatly puzzled in the attempt to ascertain the arrangement
of the vascular system of J/anayunkia, and am in doubt as to the
following explanation I give of it: The blood is of a bright green
color, and in many positions serves clearly to define the course of
the larger vessels. As represented in figure 1, the chief blood vessels
appear to be a large one on each side of the intestinal canal, closely
following the course of this, so as to seem to form a green coat to it.
In each segment of the body the vessel gives off a pair of lateral
branches, apparently uniting in a loop. In the head the two main
vessels leave the sides of the intestine, and, after forming a close
flexure or a sinus at the base of each lophophore, proceed onward
through the interior of the larger pair of tentacles. In viewing the
worm in any direction, the two main vessels so constantly appeared
at the sides of the intestine that I at first took them for the walls of
176 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
the latter itself. The condition I did not comprehend until I found
an explanation in the following paragraph in Claparede’s Recherches
sur la structure des Annelides Sedentaires, Geneva, 1873, page 76:
‘“M. de Quatrefages has discovered that in certain Serpuliens,’’ to
which family /adéricia and J/anavunkia belong, ‘‘the intestinal
canal is enclosed in a lacuna or rather a veritable sheath taking
the place of a dorsal vessel.’’ Claparede adds from his own observa-
tions the statement ‘‘ that a number of the sedentary annelides pre-
sent the same peculiarity of having the intestine included in a vascular
sheath playing the part of a dorsal vessel.’’ In this view the two
chief vessels, in figure 1, at the sides of the intestine, are to be re-
garded as sections of the vascular sheath enclosing the latter.
The principal movement observed in the vessels of A/anayunkia
consisted in an incessant pumping of blood into those of the two
larger tentacles, alternating with contraction and partial expulsion
of blood from the same.
The nervous system of Janayunkia J did not attempt to investi-
gate. A well-developed eye occupied the head at the side of the
gullet. It exhibited a clear vitreous humor in a choroid cup. No
trace of eyes is to be detected in the terminal segment of the body,
such as exist in Aaéricia.
In several instances in which I have extracted J/anayunkia from
its tube a number of young ones, about half a dozen, have been
liberated, from which it appears that the eggs are laid within the
tube, there hatched, and the young then retained under the care of
the parent until sufficiently developed to be able to care for them-
selves.
Figures 8-13, plate IX, represent an ovum and a series of young
in different stages of development, which were obtained, together
with others in the same condition, from three tubes.
The ovum, Fig. 8, about 0.2 mm. long, obtained with several
similar ones from a tube, exhibits a central mass of large yolk cells
enclosed by a layer of smaller ones. Fig. 9 represents an embryo
which accompanied the former. It was motionless and devoid of
cilia. ‘The yolk cells appear to have been resolved into a stomachial
cavity. The embryo was about the same size as the ovum. Fig. ro
represents a more advanced embryo from the same tube. It meas-
ures 0.265 mm. in length. The intestine indicates a division into
eight segments. Fig. 11 is a more advanced stage of development
of the worm from another tube. It measured one-third of a milli-
meter in length. The body wall and intestine are quite distinct,
the latter exhibiting eight segments. The tentacular lobes have

commenced development. Fig. 12 represents an individual further
developed, from the same tube as the former. It measured half a
millimeter long. The body is distinctly divided into nine segments,
of which eight bear a pair of sete on each side. ‘The tentacular
lobes exhibit each the rudiments of four tentacles. Eyes also have
made their appearance. Fig. 13 represents a young worm from an-
other tube, the only one accompanying its parent. It measured 0.72
mm.long. The body is divided into the same number of segments as
in the former. The tentacular lobes have developed each four tenta-
cles, with the rudiment of a fifth. Podal hooks could be detected
in none of the segments except the last, in which there were three
comb-hooks on each side. Another young individual, observed from
another tube, about the same size as the preceding, had five tenta-
cles on each side, but was otherwise exactly similar. Another
individual, three-fourths of a millimeter long, with five tentacles
on each side, had one more setigerous segment than in the others.
The species of /aéricia to which I referred in the beginning of
the present communication, and which I examined with particular
interest on account of the near relationship of J/axayvunkia to it, is
the same as that described by Prof. Verrill as being common from
New Haven to Vineyard Sound and at Casco Bay. (See Report on
the Sea Fisheries of New England, Washington, 1873, p. 619.) I
first noticed the worm at Newport, Rhode Island, in 1858, and
found it abundantly at Bass Rocks, Gloucester, Mass., in 1882. It
occurred on rocks between tides, under a luxuriant growth of /ucus
vesiculosus, with its tubes projecting from among the mud and sand,
firmly fixed together with multitudes of little mussels about the
roots of the seaweed.
The worm is three or four millimeters long and of a yellowish or
yellowish brown hue, with more or less reddish. The body is com-
pressed cylindrical and slightly tapering behind, and is divided into
twelve segments, including the head. This is prolonged dorsally
in a half elliptical process or upper lip. The vertex supports on
each side a trifurcate lophophore, each fork of which is provided
with a double row of narrow cylindrical tentacles invested with cilia.
The segments succeeding the head are furnished with lateral
fascicles of podal setze, and, except the first one, are provided with
fascicles of podal hooks, all of which have the same general arrange-
ment and form as those described in Vanavunkia. The fascicles of
podal setze, from the first to the eighth segments, usually contain
six or seven setze ; those of the ninth and tenth segments, three or
2
178 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
four setee, and those of the eleventh segment two or three setze. The
longer setze, Figs. 14 and 15, resemble those of Wanayunkia, consist-
ing of astraight rod, with a feather-like vane ending in a long point
and bent at an obtuse angle from the rod. ‘The stouter sete, Fig.
16, have the same form, but differ in the variably much shorter
proportion of the vane. The sete range from 0.12 to 0.25 mm.
long.
The first setigerous segment possesses no podal hooks, as in the
case of Manayunkia. ‘The fascicles in the succeeding segments to
the fourth contain each eight or nine hooks, and those following to
the eighth, inclusive, six or seven hooks. ‘The hooks of the re-
maining three segments, as in JZanayunkia, are very different from
those of the anterior segments, and are arranged in close tranverse
semicircular rows of from 20 to 28 in each row.
The anterior podal hooks consist of a curved handle ending in a
short robust hook, like those of Wanayunkia, but differing in the
hooks, being furcate, or even divided three or four times on the
dorsum, as represented in Figs. 17 and 18. These podal hooks usually
measure about 0.08 mm. long.
The posterior podal hooks resemble the corresponding ones of
Manayunkia, as represented in Fig. 19. They measure from 0.035
to 0.04 mm. long.
The intestinal canal of /adrvicia has the same simple character as
that described in J/anayunkia. ‘The mouth has a pair of palp-like
appendages, situated between the lophophores. The vascular sys-
tem appears to exhibit the same arrangement as in AZanayunkia, but
the blood is of a red color.
Fabricia is remarkable for being furnished with a pair of eyes to
the terminal segment of the body as well as to the head. The eyes
are of simple character, but equally well developed at both extrem-
ities of the body. They consist of a black pigment cup, including
a spheroidal vitreous body. In several instances I observed a curious
variation of the eyes in different individuals and on the different
sides of the same individuals. Fig. 20 represents the usual form of
the cephalic eye. Figs. 21 and 22 represent the two eyes of the
same individual, the right eye apparently double. Fig. 23 repre-
sents another double eye, but with the lens directed backward.
Fig. 24 represents a caudal eye.
The tube of Faéricia is composed of exceedingly fine particles of
quartzose sand and indefinite particles of mud.
I observed no specimens of this genus exhibiting the reproductive
organs in the condition usual in mature ones of W/anayunkia.
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 179
In several instances I observed a few free eggs and young worms
of 0.12 mm. in length within tubes in company with the parent, but
did not have the opportunity of investigating them.
Manayunkia mainly differs from /aéricia in having a pair of
simple or undivided tentacular lophophores instead of having them
trilobate ; in the possession of an inner pair of larger tentacles,
which receive a continuation of the main trunks of the vascular
system, and in having no eyes to the terminal segment of the body.

A Fungus infesting Flies.—Prof. Leidy directed attention to a
vial filled with flies adherent to fragments of leaves. He stated
that on the first of August, the last summer, he had noticed that
from the swarm of flies attracted by the ripe fruit of a black mul-
berry, Morus nigra, many settled on the under sides of the leaves,
and there became fixed and died from the invasion of a fungus, in
the same manner as the house-fly often becomes attached to walls
I8O0 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
and window panes in the autumn through the agency of the
fungus known as the Sforendonema. ‘The infested flies on the
mulberry tree were so numerous that perhaps a fourth of the foliage
of the lower boughs had from one to half a dozen of the flies adher-
ent to each leaf. The fly, though a familiar one, is unknown by
name to him. It resembles the house-fly, but is larger and has a
black abdomen with lateral whitish spots. The fungus of a fuscous
hue is especially evident in the extended intervals of the segments
of the abdomen along the sides of the thorax and at the neck.
Though extending to and attaching the flies to the leaves, the speci-
mens do not exhibit the zone of spores on the leaf as commonly
seen in those of infested house-flies. Microscopic examination ex-
hibited a similar structure of the fungus to that of the Sporendonema
or :impusa musce. It mainly consists of translucent, cylindrical,
straight, or somewhat tortuous rods or tubes of variable length with
rounded ends and containing homogeneous liquid with rows of oil-
like globules. Mingled with the tubes are numerous oval, ovoid,
and pyriform spore-like bodies, usually each with two oil-like glob-
ules. The spore-like bodies measure 0.028 to 0.036 mm. long by
0.016 mm. thick. The longer tubes measure usually up to 0.16
mm. long by 0.012 mm. thick.

Ant infected with a Fungus.—Prof. Leidy exhibited an ant, Campo-
notus pennsylvanicus, which was rigid, with limbs and antennz ex-
tended, as in life, in which condition it was found under the bark
of a decaying tree. It was infected with a fungus which spread
through every part of the body.
Distoma and Filarie—Prof. Leidy directed attention to some par-
asitic worms presented this evening. Some of these were supposed
to be leeches from the mouth of the alligator. Herodotus states that
the crocodile of the Nile has the inside of its mouth always beset
with leeches. ‘The existence of the leech has been confirmed, and is
" known as the Zdella nilotica. The present specimens, however, do
not belong toa leech, but pertain to a species of Distoma, appar-
ently not previously described. It may be named and be distin-
guished by the characters as follows:
Distoma oricola.—Body elongated elliptical, moderately wider and
thicker posteriorly, and ending in a blunt, angular extremity, convex
dorsally and flat ventrally, unarmed, smooth or minutely wrinkled
transversely. Mouth subterminal, and enclosed with a reniform lip
succeeded by a linear annulus. Acetabulum large, globular, in-

cluded at the anterior fourth of the body, and opening ventrally by
a conspicuous central aperture. Generative orifice ventral at the
posterior fourth of the body. Length 15 to 20mm.; breadth 3 mm.
Eight specimens obtained from the mouth of the alligator, 4. mzs-
sissippiensis, in Florida, by Mr. Stuart Wood.
Accompanying the specimens is a fragment of the tongue marked
with circular scars, apparently due to the worms. The alcoholic
specimens in their present condition are incurved, with the lateral
margins inverted, and the included acetabulum produces a conspicu-
ous dorsal eminence.
Of several Filarize exhibited, two, a female and a male, pertain to
the species Filaria horrida, Diesing. The former is 28 inches long,
the latter 11 inches. They were obtained by Dr. Henry C. Chap-
man from the thorax of the American ostrich, Rhea americana.
The other specimens were obtained by Mr. P. L. Jouy from the
abdomen of Strix brachyotus. ‘They consist of four females from 12
to 14 inches long and a half a line thick, and two males 2% inches
long and one-fourth of a line thick. They are thicker anteriorly
with the head end obtusely rounded, and with the mouth minute and
bounded by a minute pair of conical lips. The tail end of the fe-
male is straight and blunt ; that of the male is more tapering, and is
included in an elliptical alary appendage, supported on each side
by a row of five curving ribs. A pair of similar, but shorter and
straight papille, is situated near the anal aperture, and a pair of
pointed processes diverge from the end of the tail into the alary
expanse.
Two species of Fi/aria have been previously observed in Stix
brachyotus, F. attenuata Rud., and F. foveata Schn., to neither of
which the specimens under examination appear to belong. These,
however, so closely accord with the descriptions of /. /aétata Crep-
lin, from the black stork, Ciconia nigra, that, notwithstanding the
remote relationship in the host, the speaker believed them to belong
to that species. In the construction of the caudal extremity of the
male they closely approximate the condition of /. /adiata and /.
horrida, as represented in the figures of Schneider (Monographic der
Nematoden), while they are widely different from that of /. attenuata
and F. foveata, as represented in similar figures of the same work.

A Rare Human Tapeworm.—Dr. Leidy directed attention to some
little tapeworms which had recently been submitted to his exam-
182 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
ination by Prof. William Pepper. They were expelled, by the use
of santonin, froma child of three years. The specimens, consisting
of a dozen fragments, appear to be portions of three worms, which
reached a length of from twelve to fifteen inches or more. Unfor-
tunately the head is lost. The joints or proglottides are more than
several times the breadth of the length. Ina specimen of thirteen
inches, comprising nearly a complete worm, the joints of the ante-
rior attenuated extremity are about one-fifth of a millimeter long
by nearly two-thirds of a millimeter wide, while the posterior joints
are half a millimeter long and two and a quarter millimeters wide.
Ripe joints at the posterior part of the body are pale brown, the
color being due to the eggs. These occupy a simple uterus defined
by the walls of the joints, and not divided into pouches diverging
laterally from the main stem as is usual in most teeniz. <A singular
feature of the worm is the interruption of the series of ripe joints,
here and there, by one or more completely sterile ones. The gener-
ative apertures open in the usual way on the lateral margin of one
side. The mature eggs are spherical, measure 0.072 mm. diameter,
and contain, fully developed, six hooked embryos.
While differing greatly from the ordinary tapeworms infesting
man, they approximate nearly the description of 7@nia flavopunc-
tata, and probably pertain to this species. This has been but once
previously observed, and was described in 1858 by Dr. Weinland
(An Essay on T'apeworms of Man) from specimens in the Museum
of the Medical Improvement Society of Boston. These were also
discharged by a child. The worm was estimated to be from eight
to twelve inches. The joints were marked by a yellow spot, from
which the species was named. The eggs measured from 0.054 to
0.06 mun.
Our specimens indicate a worm almost the same size as the 7.
flavopunctata, but the joints are shorter and wider, and exhibit no
yellow spot, and the eggs are larger. In other characters the worms
sufficiently accord to render it probable that they may pertain to
the same species. It is probable that the worm is more common
than would be supposed from the instances of its observation, and
has perhaps escaped notice from its small size and from the general
ignorance of the distinction, not only of this, but of the ordinary
species of tapeworms.
A more complete account of the subject of this communication
will shortly appear in the American Journal of Medical Sciences.

Pentastomum proboscideum.—Prof. Leidy exhibited specimens of
this parasite, presented to him by Mr. Norman Spang, of Etna, Pa.,
who recently obtained them in Florida from the lung of a large
rattlesnake, Crotalus adamanteus. They are cylindrical incurved,
annulated, largest and rounded at the head, tapering behind, and
becoming again larger and rounded at the end, and terminating
ventrally in a short conical point. There are six of them, with the
following measurements: 9g lines long by 11% lines at the head; 13
lines by 114 lines; 24 by 2% ; 28 by 2%; 30 by 3, and 31 by 3.
The species was first found by Humboldt in Crotalus horridus. It
is common in the Boa constrictor, in which Prof. Leidy had also ob-
served it several times. It has likewise been found in a number of
other serpents. Other species occur in different mammals, includ-
ing man, reptiles, and fishes. These singular parasites are regarded
as the most degraded form of arachnida, in the mature stage being
reduced to a worm-like, limbless body.

Organisms in [ce.—Prof. Leidy stated that a member had placed
in his hands for examination a vial of water obtained from melting
ice which is used for cooling drinking water. From time to time,
among some sediment taken from a water-cooler, the gentleman
had observed what he supposed to be living worms, which he sus-
pected were introduced with the water into the cooler and not with
the ice. Upon melting some of the ice alone the worms were still
observed, and the water submitted for examination was some that
was thus obtained. Prof. Leidy was surprised to find a number of
worms among some flocculent sediment, mainly consisting of vegetal
hairs and other débris. Besides the worms, there were also imma-
ture Anguillulas and a number of Aotifer vulgaris, all living. It
would appear that these animals had all been contained in the ice
and had been liberated on melting. It was an unexpected source
of contamination of our drinking water that Prof. Leidy had pre-
viously supposed to be very improbable. The little worms he was
not familiar with.
They belong to the family of Lumbricidze and probably may be
an undescribed species of Lambriculus. They are white, or color-
less, from 4 to 6 millimeters long by a third of a millimeter in thick-
ness. The body is divided into thirty segments, bearing podal
spines, which form four rows, with three in each fasciculus, and
154 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
divergent. The spines are curved at the root, pointed at the free
end, and measure 0.05 to 0.06 mm. long. The upper lip is blunt
conical ; the terminal segment truncate. There appears to be no
distinct girdle, but the third, fourth, and fifth segments contain
capsuligenous glands and other organs pertaining to the sexual
apparatus.
Several dead worms swarmed in the interior, with large ovate,
beaked, ciliated infusorians measuring from 0.05 to 0.06 mm. long
by 0.04 to 0.048 mm. broad.

On some Parasitic Worms of Birds.—Prof. Leidy stated that Dr.
B. H. Warren, of Westchester, much interested in ornithological
pursuits, had submitted to his examination a number of parasitic
worms obtained in the preparation of specimens. Recently he had
sent to him the carcass of a Snow Bird, /uzzco hyemalis, in which he
reported a multitude of worms filling the thoracico-abdominal cavity
and extending into the neck and beneath the skin of the breast and
abdomen. From the carcass seventy-two worms were obtained, of
which two-thirds were females, ranging from go to 120 mm. in
length; the rest males, ranging from goto 55 mm. From the abdo-
men of another bird Dr. Warren obtained five worms, three females
from 55 to 90 mm. and two males 40 and 55 mm. In twenty-two
birds examined by Dr. Warren the parasites were found only in the
two indicated. The worms appear to be the /7/aria obtusa, Rudolphi,
which infests the A/zrundo rustica and other species of European
Swallows. The worms of the Snow Bird reach double the length
of those of the Swallows, but in other characters agree with the
descriptions of /. obtusa, as given by Diesing and Dujardin, and
also with the figures given by the latter (Hist. Helminthes, pl. i11),
except that it is uncertain as to the existence in our specimens of
the buccal armature represented by Dujardin. The worms are
translucent white, with a chocolate-brown intestine and white uteri
and testes. The caudal extremity is obtuse without appendages,
and in the male possesses two spicules, of which the longer curved
one is 1.125 mm. long and the shorter twisted one 0.5 mm. long.
The ova, containing developed embryos, are 0.045 mm. long and
0.032 mm. broad.
Six other specimens, apparently also pertaining to /7/aria obtusa,
Dr. Warren obtained from the abdominal cavity, partly imbedded
in the wall, of a Meadow Lark, Sturnella magna. ‘Two are females

130 and 140 mm. long by 0.625 mm. thick and four are males
from 50 to 60 mm. long by 0.5 mm. thick.
Six specimens of another /i/arza were obtained from the abdomen
of a female Kingfisher, Cevy/e alcyon. ‘The species appears to be
the Filaria physalura of Bremser, described from specimens obtained
from several species of Brazilian Kingfishers. Five of the worms
are females ranging from one foot to one foot and a half in length
and from one to one and a half millimeters in thickness. The head
is obtuse and the body gradually tapers to the tail. The mouth is
bounded by a pair of small conical papille. The five females
measure, respectively, 12, 13, 14,17, and 18 inches. A single male
is 35 mm. long by 0.625 mm. thick. The tail is incurved, ends in
a minute blunt cone, and is bialate, with the alz short and quinque-
costate. The length of the alated portion iso.35 mm. The spicule,
partially exserted, is recurved. The specimens, when alive, were
pink in color and exhibited a slender chocolate-brown intestine,
with large tortuous white uteri.
From the thoracic cavity of a Gray Snipe, Gallinago Wilsonti, Dr.
Warren obtained five Flukes 18 mm. long by 4 mm. broad. These
appear to be J/onostomum mutabile.
From a whippoorwill, Axtrostomus vociferus, Dr. Warren obtained
four worms, two females of 18 mm. and two males of 12 mm., which
appear to be Ascaris subulata.
From the Pileated Woodpecker, //ylotomus pileatus, Dr. Warren
obtained ten worms which appear to pertain to the Sfzvoplera quad-
viloba Rudolphi, the female of which was originally described from
specimens found in the Green Woodpecker, Picus viridis. The
specimens are reported as having been found in the abdominal
cavity. Six are females from 9 to 12 mm. long by 0.5 mm. thick
and four males 7 and 8 mm. long by 0.375 mm. thick. Body white,
nearly equally attenuated toward both ends; transversely wrinkled
and anteriorly minutely, regularly, and sharply annulated ; mouth
quadrilobate. Tail of female conical subacute ; tail of male bialate,
sexcostate, end acute; spicules two, the longest 1.5 mm. long, the
shortest 0.5 mm. long.

Bothriocephalus in a Trout.—Prof. Leidy remarked that through
Dr. B. H. Warren he had recently received from the Smithsonian
Institution several vials with tapeworms, obtained by Mr. L. M.
Turner from a trout, Sa/velinus —?, at Ft. Chimo, Ungava. One
of the vials contained eight worms, ranging from 3 to 8 inches long
186 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
together with fragments of others, and was labeled ‘‘ Passed from
a Trout caught in the river August 14, 1882.’’ The worms belong
to a species of Lothriocephalus or Dibothrium, apparently different
from either the 2. infundibuliforme or D. proboscideum, found in
Salmo salvelinus, S. salar, S. trutta, and other fishes of the kind.
The specimens are all mature, the segments from near the head
throughout being distended with brownish eggs. The characters
of the worm are as follows: Body linear, bandlike, widest just be-
hind the head and gradually narrowing to the posterior extremity,
thickened along the middle and to a less degree along the lateral
borders, which are narrowly obtuse at the free edge, apparently
continuous, but irregularly crenulate; the broad surfaces trans-
versely wrinkled, with the lateral borders defined from the middle
by longitudinal striz ; anterior extremity wider and transversely
convex ; posterior extremity obtusely rounded. Head small, oval,
equitant across the anterior border of the body, with an oval bothria
fore and aft, directed obliquely from the broad surfaces of the body.
No distinct neck. Segments of the body commencing immediately
after the head, wider than long, indistinctly defined at the lateral
margins and most marked transversely along the middle of the
body, becoming narrower and slightly longer at the posterior part
of the latter, fertile throughout and furnished on one side of the
body, in the median line, with a prominent penal papilla and just
behind with a genital pore. Animal whitish, with a median chain
of brownish spots, due to the ova-distended uteri.
In a specimen of eight inches in length the anterior extremity of
the body is 3 mm. wide, at the middle 2 mm., and at the posterior
extremity 1.5mm. ‘The head measures 0.16 mm. transversely and
o.18 mm. deep or long on the broad aspect of the worm. The seg-
ments generally measure about 0.625 mm. long. The ova are
brownish, oval, and 0.04 mm. long by 0.024 broad.
The second vial contains a single worm and is labeled ‘‘ Taken
from the intestine of a Trout Aug. 29, 1882.’’ This worm I sus-
pect to represent an immature stage of the former. It is 30 mm.
long and in shape resembles the fluke-worm or a leech. It is elon-
gated elliptical, flat, widest in front, with the lateral margins appar-
ently entire, the broad surfaces transversely striated and longitudi-
nally divided into three bands, with the median band indistinctly
divided into segments, on one surface in the median line provided
each with a minute pore. Head oval, situated fore and aft across
the anterior transversely convex border of the body, with a minute
oval bothria fore and aft. Caudal extremity narrowest transversely

convex at the end and emarginate or with a pore. Breadth at fore
part 3 mm., at back part 2mm. ‘The species may be named Loth-
riocephalus (Dibothriumr) cestus.

Worms tn Ice.—Prof. Leidy referred to aformer communication on
the occurrence of organisms in ice (see Proc. 1884, 260), and stated
that Dr. C. S. Thornton, of Moorestown, N. J., a couple of weeks
since, had submitted to him for examination a bottle of water from
melted ice, such as was habitually used in his family, and in which
he said he had observed living worms. A number of these proved to
be present in the specimen, but were alldead. Having expressed a
desire to confirm the statement that the worms were observed alive in
fresh ice-water, Dr. Thornton last week had obligingly sent him a
basket of the ice. This was part of the provision made nearly a year
ago from the vicinity of Moorestown. The ice was full of air bub-
bles and water drops. On being melted a number of the worms were
liberated and proved to be in a living and quite active condition. It
is probable that while imprisoned in the ice they may not have been
frozen, but perhaps remained alive in a torpid condition in water
drops. It is a remarkable fact that these animals should remain so
long alive in ice, and yet die so readily in the melted water subse-
quently. The worms are of the same species noticed in the ice-
water of the first communication, and which was derived from sim-
ilar ice procured from a mill-pond in Delaware Co., Pa. These facts
would indicate that it is desirable to avoid the spongy ice from stag-
nant waters as being liable to retain organisms which would be
detrimental to us. In the clear ice, such as is served in Philadel-
phia, no living organisms are detected. The little worms of the ice
appear to be an undescribed species, and may therefore be charac-
terized as follows:
Lumbricus glacialis.—Worm from four to six lines long, translu-
cent, white, cylindrical, anteriorly acute, tapering most behind and
obtuse, of from 35 to 50 segments ; oral segment with a blunt coni-
cal upper lip, unarmed and eyeless ; succeeding segments with four
rows of podal-spines, in fascicles of three ; spines pointed at the free
end and hooked at the attached end, nearly straight or slightly sig-
moid ; generative organs occupying the interval of the third and
seventh spine bearing segments. Thickness of worm 0.15 to 0.25
mm.; podal spines 0.3 to 0.375 mm. long.
The length given in the former notice should be in lines instead
of millimeters.

On Amia and its probable Tenia.—Prof. Leidy stated that in our
market on Saturday last three Mud-fishes, Ama calva, had been
given to him. They came ina barrel of shad from North Carolina.
One was a female about two feet long, the others male, of which
the smallest was eight inches. Protruding from the vent of the
latter was a little tapeworm, which, on disturbance, retreated into
the rectum. Three other worms of the same kind were found in the
mouth, but none in the intestine of this or the other fishes. The
worms accorded with the description of the 7enia filicolis, infesting
Sticklebacks, Gasterosteus, and is probably the same species. They
range from 1'% to 3 inches long, gradually widening from the deli-
cate thread-like neck to the posterior rounded extremity, where they
measure from 1 to 1.5 mm. wide. The head is spheroidal, variably
broader or longer, and about 0.625 mm., with the summit slightly
prominent and unarmed and with four hemispherical, lateral bothria
0.25 mm. in diameter. Neck variable, when extended long and
narrow and usually about half the width of the head. Anterior
segments, transversely linear, about an eighth the length of the
breadth, gradually becoming inverted saucer-shaped or scutellate,
and about one-fourth the length of the breadth. Posterior seg-
ments more quadrate, slightly widening behind, about 0.75 mm.
long and from 1 to 1.5 mm. broad; last segment longest and
rounded. Genital apertures marginal.

NOTICE OF SOME PARASITIC WORMS.
Filaria megacantha.—Body straight, nearly uniform cylindrical,
slightly narrowed posteriorly, obtuse at the ends, milk-white in
color ; head rounded ; mouth bounded by a pair of prominent papil-
late lips. Female caudal extremity straight, obtusely rounded,
smooth, without anal aperture. Male: caudal extremity conical,
obtuse, bialate ; alee narrow, united around the end of the tail, to-
gether forming a shallow pouch, with a row on each side of six rib-
like papille, of which four are in advance and two behind the gen-
ital aperture. A long, curved and partially exserted penal spiculum
and a nearly straight short one.

From the subcutaneous connective tissue of the neck and mandi-
ble of the Short-eared Owl, Aszo occipitrinus (Strix brachyotus).
This appears to be a much smaller and different species from the
filaria attenuata Rud., found in the same bird and others of the
order in Europe. Dujardin (Helminthes, 51) gives as the size of
the latter 250 to 308 mm. for the female, and 136 to 148 mm. for
the male, with 1 mm. for the longer penal speculum. Schneider
gives (Monog. Nemat., 89) for /. atlenuata, from Falco peregrinus,
330 mm. for the female, and 115 mm. for the male, the caudal bursa
of which he represents as circular. He remarks that the /i/aria
of Strix and of Cecus glandarius, referred by Rudolphi to /. atten-
wata, is a different species, but does not describe it, for want of per-
fect specimens. Obtained in Chester county, Pennsylvania, Decem-
ber, 1886, by Dr. B. H. Warren.
Three specimens, females, two inches in length, from the orbit of
the Hen-hawk, Auteo borealis, in the collection of the Army Medical
Museum, appear to belong to this species.
Ascaris tulura.—Body cylindrical, most narrowed and tapering
anteriorly, of a pinkish color; mouth trilobed, the lobes together
nearly as wide as the head. Female: caudal extremity nearly as
thick as the middle of the body, straight ; tail short, obtusely con-
ical; as broad at base as the length. Male: caudal extremity ta-
pering, slightly incurved, with a row on each side of minute papillee
(20 or more?) ; tail short, conical, ending in a spheroidal knob.

From the ventriculus of the Red-shouldered Hawk, Auteo lineatus.
This worm approximates the Ascaris depressa Rud., observed in
many rapacious birds, but appears to be a different species. Diesing
(Syst. Helm., 156) describes the tail of the male of the former as
shortly mucronate and papillose beneath, and Schneider (Monog.
Nemat., 41) figures it according to that description.

Tenia simplicissima (drawing ).—Head small, unarmed, truncate ;
bothria spherical, terminal, occupying the four angles; neck very
long, nearly or as wide as the head, body gradually widening to the
posterior third and then tapering ; anterior segments transversely
linear, subsequently reversed disklike, gradually longer and wider,

Generative apertures and ova unobserved. A number of specimens
from the Cod, Gadus callarias, up to 20 lines by 1 mm. where widest.
Two only of the specimens retained the head. (Drawing. )
Tenia Ambloplitis.—Head quadrate, spheroidal, consisting almost
entirely of the four large spherical bothria, with the summit slightly
prominent and conical or depressed and unarmed ; neck very short
or none; body compressed cylindrical, gradually widening from the
head to near the posterior part, where it slightly narrows to the end ;
segments linear, becoming gradually longer and wider, and then
more quadrate, all deeply and pretty regularly wrinkled into two or
three annuli. Genital apertures obscure. Length 8 to 12 inches ;

Zena Micropteri.—Head large, compressed spheroidal, with four
subterminal spherical bothria and a papilliform unarmed summit ;
neck none ; body obscurely segmented, and with no obvious internal
organs, posteriorly variably narrowed and obtusely rounded at the
end. Length from half an inch to an inch, and about 1 mm. wide.
Apparently alarval form ; found in the body cavity of the Black Bass,
Micropterus nigricans. Six worms, soft, white, and active. The
longer ones of an inch would elongate to double the length, becom-
ing proportionately narrower. The head, about 1 mm. or more in
diameter, varied in length and breadth, according to contraction,
sometimes one and sometimes the other being the larger. Lake
George, N. Y.
Last summer while at Mt. Desert, Me., I examined a squid, Om-
mastrephes tllecebrosa, with the hope of finding the singular parasite
Dicyema. 'Thespecimen was in bad condition, and while I found none
of the latter, I obtained from it several small worms, which I sup-
pose to be the larval form of a cestode. They were yet quite active
though the host was already putrescent. I suspected them to belong
to Tetrabothriorhynchus migratorius, observed in European cephalo-
pods, but examination showed them to be different. They moved
so actively and incessantly, contracting, expanding, and writhing,
that it was difficult to obtain a clear idea of the shape of the worm.
It appears most nearly related with 7@nia, and provisionally may
be regarded as a larval form of this genus. Its more evident char-
acters may be summed up as follows:
Tenia loliginis.—Head unarmed, without rostellum, quadrilobate,
continuous with the neck, which is variably long and narrow or short
and irregularly contracted and expanded, and is constricted from the
body. Lobes of the head elliptical, contractile and expansile and
becoming variably folded or corrugated, furnished each at the upper
pole with a hemispherical bothria. Body about as long as the head
and neck, extensile and contractile, obconic or obovate, compressed,
acute posteriorly, unsegmented. No interior organs visible except
a vessel along the sides of the neck and encircling the lobes of the
head. Color white. Length to about half an inch; width about

1mm. Dr. H. C. Chapman informed me that he had previously
observed this parasite in the squid.
Monostomum obscurum.—Elongated elliptical, flattened, obtusely
angular in front, obtusely rounded behind. Oral and genital or
other apertures scarcely distinguishable. Length, 4 to 8 lines; width
1 line.
Numerous specimens in the stomach of a Jew-fish, Wegalops
thrissoides. Collection of the Army Medical Museum, Washington.
Distomum Aquile.—Spatulate, cochleariform, widest behind, ob-
tuse at both ends; mouth circular, unarmed; acetabulum sessile,
about as large as the mouth. . Length, 3 lines; width in front, %4 a
line ; behind, 4-5 of a line. Two specimens from the trachea of the
Bald Eagle, Haliwtus leucocephalus. Collection of the Army Medical
Museum.
Distomum hispidum, Abildgaard. Body much attenuated in ad-
vance, covered with minute recurved spines, which become obsolete
at the back part. Head with a pair of alate appendages covered
with stronger recurved spines, and a small group in the intervals
before and behind. Mass of eggs giving the axis of the body behind
a red appearance. Ova oval, 0.4 mm. long, 0.24 mm. broad.
Numerous specimens about 4 lines long by 0.5 mm. where widest
behind. From the intestine of the Sturgeon, Accipenser sturio, of
the Delaware river, at Philadelphia.
Nitzschia elegans, Baer.—Several specimens of this leech, four
lines long, were taken from the gills of the same sturgeon.

Parasite of a Bat.—Dr. Leidy remarked that it was a common
opinion among country people that swallows and bats were infested
with bed-bugs, and often introduced them into houses. He had
convinced himself that the (7mex infesting the cliff-swallow was a
different species from the bed-bug (Proc. 1877, 284). He had re-
peatedly examined bats without finding Czmex. On one of two
small bats from Panama Bay presented this evening by Dr. Wm. H.
Jones he found two singular insects, which appear to be the Polyc-
tenes fumarius described by Prof. Westwood from a bat of Jamaica.
They are about half of the size given for the species, but otherwise
appear to agree in all respects. It has four jointed antennz, with
the first pair of limbs short and the other pair long. The insect has
distinct hemiclytra.

hot-larve in the Terrapin.—Prof. Leidy remarked that the habits
of a naturalist often led him to observe things in our daily life which
usually escape the notice of others. In our food he had frequent
occasion to detect parasites which he preferred to reject, but which
are unconsciously swallowed by others. While he liked a herring,
he never ate one without first removing the conspicuously coiled
worms on the surface of the roe, and he had repeatedly extracted
from a piece of black bass or a shad a thread worm which others
would not distinguish from a vessel or a nerve. While he did not
object to the little parasitic crab of the oyster, he made it a point to
remove the equally frequent leech from the clam. It was in a piece
of ham he was eating that he first noticed the trichina, which was
no doubt one of the causes that led Moses to declare the pig to be
unclean; and in the hundred tapeworms he had examined from our
fellow-citizens during the past twenty-five years he had ascertained
that they had all been derived from rare beef. He continued: Ina
visit to Charleston, S. C., before the late war, at an evening enter-
tainment, among other viands were nicely browned slices of the
drum-fish, Pogonias chromis. A friend informed him that some por-
tions were more gelatinous and delicate than others, and helped him
to what was supposed to be one of such. On cutting into it he ob-
served imbedded in the flesh a soft mass which appeared of enigmatic
character. The following day he procured from market a drum-fish,
on the dissection of which he found imbedded in the tail several egg-
shaped masses about three inches long and less than an inch thick,
which proved to be a large coiled worm (Acanthorhynchus reptans)
(Proc. A. N. S. 1858, 111). This it was that gave delicacy to the
dainty, and in this instance the parasite seems to enhance the excel-
lence of the food. At another evening entertainment nearer home
he partook of some stewed terrapins. Taking into his mouth what
appeared to be an egg, it produced such an impression as led to its
rejection. Seeming so peculiar, he tied it in the corner of his hand-
kerchief for more convenient examination. The specimen, now
exhibited, was a membranous bag, which contained thirty yellowish
white maggots from 8 to 12 mm. long by 1.5 to3 mm. broad. They
are the larvee of a bot-fly, and resemble those of the Gastrophilus of
the horse. Their characters are as follows:
Body of the larva fusiform, acute anteriorly, obtuse posteriorly,
consisting of twelve segments including the head, which is armed
with a pair of strong, black, hooked maxillze ; terminal segment

with a pair of trilateral oval chitinous disks, each with three spira-
cles; intermediate segments with numerous minute recurved hook-
lets, disposed in incompletely separated bands at the fore and back
part of the segments.
The sac containing the larve is about three-fourths of an inch
long and half an inch broad, with a short tubular prolongation open
at the extremity. It was uncertain whether the sac formed part of
the intestine.
The dish of stewed terrapins was suspected to have been a mixture
of the diamond-back, Amys palustris, and the red-bellied terrapin,
£. rugosa. ‘This is not the only instance of the occurrence of bots
in turtles, as Prof. A. S. Packard notes the case of larve being
found in the skin of the neck of the box-turtle, C/studo carolina. —

TAPEWORMS IN BIRDS.*
Birds are as much infested with intestinal worms as other classes
of animals, and none appear to be exempt, no matter what may be
the nature of their food, though aquatic birds appear to harbor a
greater number of species, as exemplified by ducks and geese.
Among the parasites, tapeworms, mostly of the genus Zena,
are common, though less frequent than the thread worms. The
domestic fowl in Europe had been reported to harbor half a dozen
different species of 7@nia, though I have as yet observed but one
with us, and this but rarely. Nospecies, I believe, has been noticed
in our turkey, nor the guinea fowl and pea fowl.
Fic. 1.—Anterior extremity of Zia microps. 30 diameters.
Dr. J. Van A. Carter, of Fort Bridger, Wyoming, directed my
attention to the sage fowl, Centrocercus urophasianus, as being much
infested with tapeworms. They often occur together in large
numbers, sometimes so as to distend the smallintestine. The young
birds especially are affected ; and the old birds appear comparatively
ezerupt. Perhaps this may be due to the individuals much ee

being killed off, though the living birds infested, which were ob-
served, appeared not to be suffering in nutritive condition. The
species seems to be the 7enia microps, Diesing ; the same which
infests the Capercailzie, Tefrao urogallus, of Europe. Its charac-
ters are as follows: Head globose or oval, without rostellum or
armature, and with a central fovea at the vertex. The four bothria
spherical or oval. Neck long, variably narrower than or as wide
as the head. Anterior segments, where distinct, about three times
the breadth of the length ; subsequently seven or eight times the
breadth of the length; afterwards again about three times the
breadth of the length; then nearly square ; next longer than broad ;
and finally two or three times the length of the breadth. Segments
mostly flat, or narrowly elliptical in section, but finally nearly as
thick as wide, so as to be oval or nearly circular in section. Genital
apertures marginal, alternating, most distinct in the middle segments.
Ova, in the terminal segments, oval, colorless, with an embryo pro-
vided with three pair of spines.
Length 9 inches, greatest width 21% lines. Measurements of sev-
eral individuals were as follows:

Our reed bird, or rice bird, Dolichonyx oryzivorous, at the time of
its autumnal visit to the vicinity of Philadelphia, I have found to
be very much infested with tapeworms. Every bunch of a dozen,
as obtained in market, will be found to have three or four individ-
uals with the parasite. The worms usually are found in the thin
birds, while the fat ones are commonly free, thus apparently indi-
cating by their presence an influence on the nutrition of their host.

The species formerly described by me, and since more carefully
examined, presents the following characters :
Tenia pestifera.—Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci., 1855, 443. Head quad-
rate, scarcely defined from the neck, summit truncate, slightly promi-
nent, flat, or depressed, unarmed ; bothria large, spherical, occupying
the four corners. Neck long, as wide or slightly narrowed from the
head. Body gradually widening to the middle and then more or less
tapering ; anterior segments transversely linear, becoming gradually
longer and broader ; subsequently obcuneate longer and narrower.
In an apparently complete individual, 3’ inches long, it was
widest at the middle and tapering towards the extremities. Head
0.75 mm. broad ; middle segments of body 1.5 broad ; posterior seg-
ments 0.75 broad.
In a number of individuals the head ranged from 0.25 mm. long
and 0.875 broad to 0.3 long by 1.625 broad. Posterior cuneate seg-
ments variably 0.3 to 0.375 mm. long by 0.5 to 0.75 wide.
I have seen several tape-worms, apparently of the same species,
submitted to my examination by Dr. B. H. Warren, of West Chester,
who obtained them from the yellow-breasted chat, /cferia virens.

Dr. B. H. Warren, of West Chester, a zealous ornithological ob-
server, has submitted to my examination a collection of intestinal
worms, recently obtained by him during an expedition to Florida.
Among these are a number of tapeworms, of which most appear to
be undescribed species. They are as follows :
Tenia odiosa.— Head hemiovoid to conical, unarmed ; bothria sub-
terminal, spherical, near together; neck none; body immediately
after as wide or nearly as wide as the head ; anterior segments short,
linear ; succeeding segments all wrinkled annularly, the more an-
terior band-like, the posterior barrel-shaped. Generative apertures
lateral, mostly not visible. Length 1% to 2inches. Head 0.3 to
0.45 mm. wide ; body just behind about as wide as the head ; anterior

the widest subcuneate twelve times as broad as long. Estimated to
be about 2 inches in length, with the greatest breadth about 3 mm.
In addition to the foregoing, I have observed 7enia variabilis,
Rud., in our woodcock, Philohela minor, previously described from
various European wading birds, and 7enia scolopendra, Diesing, in

Chetopterus from Florida.—Prot. Leidy directed attention to speci-
mens which were collected in the trip of Prof. Heilprin and Mr.
Willcox, at the mouth of the Manatee River. The species appears
to be the Chelopterus pergamentaceus of Cuvier, originally described
from specimens from the West Indies. It is a remarkable form.
It belongs to the Tubicole, or tube-living worms, but, unlike most
of these, is devoid of the numerous cephalic appendages, or tenta-
cles and gills. The tube is membranous and laminated in structure,
and it has the appearance of parchment. ‘The two tubes collected
are 16 inches long by three-fourths of an inch in diameter and taper-
ing toward the ends. An incomplete worm, not well preserved on
account of its delicacy, in its present condition is 9 inches long and
appears very narrow in comparison with the capacity of its tube.
The anterior division of the body, about an inch long, is flattened
and about half as wide, but narrowing behind, and is composed of
eight podal segments provided with dense bunches of lustrous golden
setze. The succeeding segment, long and narrow, is provided with
a pair of wing-like appendages an inch long and each furnished
with two bundles of diverging setze. Then follow five long, narrow
segments with large membranous appendages, without sete. The
terminal segments, of which 15 remain in the specimen, are fur-
nished with pairs of long pointed appendages with bundles of setz.

Cirolana Feasting on the :dible Crab.—Prot. Leidy stated that on
last Saturday, having occasion to go to Beach Haven, N. J., during
a leisure half-hour stroll along the shore he noticed here and there
a dead crab, Callinectes hastatus, lying on the sand near the last
high-tide mark. The crabs observed happened to be all females,
and they appeared to have died recently, as some were quite fresh
and showed no signs of decomposition. Others, broken open by
removing the carapace, were found to have the body cavity swarm-
ing with a living isopod, the C7vo/ana concharum, which had preyed
upon the organs and were variously colored by the food with which
they were gorged. From a single crab there were taken 108 of the
Cirolana, ranging from 15 to 22 mm. in length by 5 to 7 mm. in
breadth.
The isopod is grayish translucent above and whitish translucent
beneath, and centrally variously colored, brown, black, red, or
yellow, from the food contents. The dorsal plates are minutely

dotted, black or brown, in bands. The eyes are triangular, with
rounded angles, and black. The antenne are nearly double the
length of the antennules. The mandibles are furnished with a
strong brown tricuspid molar. The caudal plates or telson are tri-
angular, with a blunt, slightly emarginate apex, and with a pair of
spines each side of the latter. The isopod has been observed by
Stimpson at Charleston, S. C., and by Harger at Vineyard Sound,
Mass., but has not previously been reported from the coast of New
Jersey. Three isolated specimens of the same were picked up on
the shore of Beach Haven the last summer.
On Bopyrus palemoneticola.—Prof. Leidy also presented numerous
specimens of the prawn, Palemonetes vulgaris, infested with the
parasite Lopyrus palemoneticola, obtained at Beach Haven, N. J.
From about two quarts of the prawn caught for fish-bait upwards of
fifty contained the Gopyrus.

Reputed Tapeworm in a Cucumber.—Prof. Leidy stated that sev-
eral years ago his colleague in the university, Prof. Wm. Goodell,
submitted to his examination a tapeworm which he received from
a correspondent, with the label ‘‘ From the middle of a cucumber
preserved in brine. S. E. Robinson, West Union, Iowa, May 29,
1876.’’ The specimen appears to be complete, and in its present
condition, preserved in alcohol, is about eight inches long. The
head is large, spheroid, provided with four small equidistant hemi-
spherical bothria, and surmounted by a prominent crown, with a
double circle of strong hooks. ‘The neck is a slight constriction,
whence the body rapidly widens and again tapers behind. The an-
terior segments are transversely linear, with a gradually increasing
length and more acute and prominent lateral ends ; the middle seg-
ments are about twice the breadth of the length and slightly cam-
panulate, and the posterior segments are proportionately longer and
narrower. In the latter the uterus is distended with eggs only at
their anterior portion.
The hooks are partially lost on one side of the crown, and it is
estimated that there were about 40 or more.
The head is .875 mm. broad ; the crown of hooks .625 mm. ; the
neck .8 mm.; at the middle of the body six segments together are
11cm. long and 3.5 mm. wide; the terminal segments are about 4
mm. long and 2.5 mm. wide. The eggs measure from .032 to
036 mim.

While it cannot be admitted that the worm belonged to the cucum-
ber, nor is it clear how it reached this position, it is a question as to
the species. It bears a near resemblance to the 7enzia crassicollis of the
Cat, but is not more than half the size of this as it ordinarily occurs.

in length in the contracted condition as preserved in alcohol, we find

Flabit of Cirolana concharum.—Prof. Leidy said that he yesterday
went to Atlantic City, in the expectation of finding interesting speci-
mens cast ashore in the recent storm, but there proved to be nothing.
He picked up a few recently dead Lady-crabs, Platyonichus ocellatus,
and found in them a number of the Czrolana concharum, feasting
upon the flesh and other parts, as he had previously noticed them
feeding on the edible crab. (See page 80, Proceedings 1888.) From
these observations it would appear to be the usual habit of the
Cirolana to prey on dead crabs and probably other animals.

Parasites of the Striped Bass.—Prof. Leidy exhibited numerous
specimens of a minute crustacean parasite from the gills of the Striped
Bass or Rockfish (Laérvax lineatus), brought to our market. He
said it is a common parasite and he had been familiar with it since
1871. It wasdescribed by the Danish naturalist, Dr. Henrik Kroyer,
under the name of /7rgastlus labricis, obtained from the same fish at
Baltimore (Danske Naturh. Tids., 1863-’64, 303, Tab. ix, Fig. 2).
Common as it seems to be, Mr. R. Rathbun, in his published list of the
parasitic Copepoda from American waters, says he had not observed
it (Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., 1884, 483). . The little crustacean lives
suspended on the outer surfaces of the gills, where it is conspicuous
from the white color of its thorax and egg-pouches on the red color of
the gills. The length of the parasite together with its egg-pouches
is 2.125 mm.; without the latter 1.25 mm.

Prof. Leidy further exhibited portions of two intestines of the
same fish, with numerous attached worms pertaining to Achino-
rhynchus proteus, which infested many fishes, both of fresh and salt
water, of Europe. It isnot only a frequent and abundant but a con-
stant parasite of our Striped Bass. It ranges from 5 lines to an inch
in length. The young ones are white; the older have the body
yellow, bright orange, or brownish orange, with a white neck and
proboscis, which together are one-fourth the entire length. Diesing
attributes to the proboscis 8 to 10 rows of hooks, but Dujardin gives
double the number, and this accords with the condition observed in
our Specimens. The parasite lives in the large intestine with the
proboscis and neck together embedded in the wall and the body sus-
pended inthe cavity. The proboscis and bulbous commencement of
the neck together protrude externally and form on the outside of the
intestine brown pyriform tumors, giving to the organ a peculiar tuber-
cular appearance. The worms exhibit the following characters: Body
widest at the commencement, where it is rounded and slightly con-
stricted from the rest, which tapers to the posterior obtuse end. Pro-
boscis cylindrical but expanded at the middle and base. Neck very
long, bulbous at the commencement, becoming narrower and cylin-
rical and a little dilated at the base; smooth throughout. Length of
a large one 24 mm. ; proboscis and neck 6 mm.; proboscis 1.25 mm.
long, 0.175 thick; 0.25 at middle expansion ; bulb of the neck 1 mm.,
narrow part below 0.375 thick, at base 0.5 thick. Body at com-
mencement 2 mim, thick, near posterior end 1 mm. thick.

Trematodes of the Muskrat.—Prof. Leidy stated that in the collec-
tion of the Academy there is a vial labeled, ‘‘ Worms from the duo-
denum of the Muskrat.’’ There are 25 worms, and in their present
condition they are pale brown, bordered by dark brown, and meas-
ure from 12 to 18 mm. long by 1 to 1.5 mm. broad. If not identi-
cal, they are closely allied to Distomum echinatum, which in the
mature state lives in ducks and other water birds and in the larval
state in fresh-water snails. The Muskrat eats the latter, so that it
may likewise become infested in the same manner as the ducks, and
this would also seem to make it probable that the parasite is the
same. Dujardin, Wedl, and others describe PD. echinatum as hav-
ing the fore part of the body echinate, which is not the case with
the Distome of the Muskrat, though in both the head is armed in
the same manner and with the same number of spines. Its charac-
ters are as follows :
212 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
Body long, flattened, band-like, with the neck tapering and the
tail obtusely rounded. Head reniform, with a coronet of strong,
straight spines—from 30 to 36. Ventral acetabulum much larger
than the head, situated at the base of the neck a short distance be-
hind the latter, spherical. Body of nearly uniform width. Oral
acetabulum small; pharynx oval; intestines simple and narrow.
Genital orifice immediately in advance of the ventral acetabulum ;
cirrus exsert to one side, curved and smooth ; testes situated almost
midway between the ventral acetabulum and tail; oviducts median
behind the ventral acetabulum ; ova oval, yellow; vitelline glands
large and conspicuous, racemose, extending along the intestines
from the ventral acetabulum to the end of the tail.
Head 0.5 to 0.6 mm. broad ; spines about 0.1 long by 0.02 thick ;
oral acetabulum 0.25; pharynx 0.3 long, 0.225 wide; ventral ace-
tabulum 0.875 to 1.25. Ovao.1 long by 0.072 broad.
Since the above communication a collection of worms from the
small intestine of a Muskrat has been received. Eighteen of the
worms pertain to the supposed Distomum echinatum and range from
18 to 25 mm. long. In all, the fore part of the body to a short dis-
tance behind the ventral acetabulum is finely echinate, while the
rest is smooth. ‘Two other worms appear to belong to 4mphisto-
mum subtriquetrum, 12 and 15 mm. long, a parasite previously
observed only in the Beaver of Europe.
[| March, 1888. No. 559. See Bibliography. ]
Entozoa of the Terrapin.—Prof. Leidy stated that he had on one
occasion examined eight of our much esteemed food Terrapins to
ascertain the character of their parasites. All were found to be in-
fested with an Achinorhynchus, living in the small intestine and
clinging by the thorny head to any part of the canal. The worms
range from six to sixteen lines in length and in numbers from five
to upwards of two hundred. The species is Echinorhynehus hamu-
/atus, originally described from several of our fresh-water turtles.
(See these Proceedings, 1856, 48.)
In three of the Terrapins occurred a red thread worm, also living
in the small intestine and associated with the former and, like them,
clinging by their armed mouth to the mucous membrane. The
species is the Cuculanus microcephalus, the males up to nine lines,
the females from twelve to sixteen lines. In one Terrapin there
were eight, in a second over a hundred, and in the third upwards of
several hundred. They extended all along the intestine, but were

most numerous at its upper part. The females are viviparous and
contain living young.
In one Terrapin only, also in the intestine, there were two flukes,
the dmphistomum grande, about half an inch long.
In the bladder of another Terrapin there was a single Polystomum
3-5 mm. long, probably P. ob/ongum, first described by Prof. Wright,
of Toronto. from an individual obtained from the bladder of the
Musk Turtle, Avomochelys odoratus.
In another Terrapin he had found four Polystomes, of which
three were in the throat and the other in the nose. These pertain
to a different species from the former, and may prove to be the Po/y-
stomum ocellatum, found in a similar position in the European Turtle,
Emys europea. At the genital outlet of Po/ystomum, situated ven-
trally at the fore part of the body, the cirrus is surrounded by a
circle of hooks. In P. integerrimum, the species best known and
found in Europe, living in the bladder of frogs, the genital circle is
composed of eight hooks. Prof. Wright ascribes sixteen hooks to
the circle of P. oblongum, and this accords with the number in the
Polystomum from the bladder of the Terrapin. In the other Poly-
stomes of the latter he found the circle to be composed of thirty-two
hooks. Siebold says there are forty hooks to the cirele in ?. ocella-
tum. Wr. Zeller figures the latter from a sketch of Siebold, in
which the caudal disk is represented as having two large hooks and
eight small ones between the posterior pair of bothria. In the allied
Polystomes of the Terrapin the number and arrangement of the
hooks of the caudal disk is the same as represented in Prof. Wright’s
figure of P. oblongum. If, then, we have a correct record of the
facts, the Polystomes of the fauces of our Terrapin may be regarded
as another species, which may be distinguished as follows :
Polystomum coronatum.— Body when elongated lanceolate. Caudal
disk wider than the body, cordiform, with three pairs of bothria and
with the body attached between the anterior two pairs ; changeable
in form to oblong, circular or quadrate ; with three pairs of minute
hooks between the anterior pair of the bothria and with a larger
pair and two small pairs between the last pair of bothria. Genital
aperture with a circular or a transverse oval coronet of thirty-two
hooks of equal length. No eyes visible. Length elongated from
4 to 6mm. ; contracting to about half the length and widening
proportionately.
Besides the foregoing, there was found in the intestine of one of
the Terrapins a little Distome, of 3 mm. length, which, though ma-
ture, he had not the leisure to examine. He also observed in the
214 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
throat of one a number of little anguillula-like worms, which he
likewise did not examine.
In all the Terrapins the flesh, liver, and other parts than those
above mentioned were entirely clear of parasites. Therefore, in
preparing these animals for food, it is easy to free them from the
latter by rejecting the head, intestines, and bladder ; or if it is thought
desirable to use the intestines, they should be slit open and cleansed
of the contents.
Prof. Leidy added that he had recently found in the collection of
the Academy a bottle labelled ‘‘ alimentary worms in terrapin.’’
These proved to be seven bot-larvee like those described and exhibited
at a former meeting. (See Proc., 1887, 393.)

A Crustacean Parasite of the Red Snapper.—Prof. Leidy remarked
that in the examination of the fish called the Red Snapper, Lutjanus
dlackfordi, brought to our market from Florida, he had observed a
curious crustacean parasite adhering to the throat about the pharyn-
geal bones. It appears to be an undescribed species of Anchorella,
which, from its having a bundle consisting of half a dozen posterior
appendages, including a pair of large egg pouches, may be named
A. fasciculata. The animal is milk white, though in the fresh con-
dition the egg pouches are slightly reddish, and it is about half an
inch long, including the latter. The body is pyriform, with its long
axis in the same line with the single suspensory arm, and with the
head and neck curved outward and a little downward to one side.
The head is bird-head-like in shape, with beak directed upward and
furnished with two pair of minute maxillipeds. The suspensory
arm, or brachium, about as long as the head and neck together, is
straight and is surmounted by a button, which is sessile and inter-
nally striated. At the base of the brachium on each side there is a
minute papilla. The posterior appendages consist of two long cylin-
drical egg pouches, and on each side two much shorter sausage-like
pouches. The adjoining figure is an outline of the parasite magnified
six diameters. "Twenty-five were obtained from one fish. Measure-
ments of a specimen are as follows: Length of body with brachium
2.5 mm.; length of brachium 1.25; of head and neck 1.75; head
1 by 0.625; breadth of body 1.375; length of egg pouches 4, thick-
ness 0.625; length of short pouches 1.625 and 1.25. Clinging to
the head of one of the females of the Anchorella was a minute male
measuring 1.125 mm. in length. With the Anchorellz was found a
single specimen of Ca/igus, which closely resembles the C. xanzs,

PARASITIC CRUSTACEA.
Attached to the shark, Odontaspis Jittoralis, caught at Beesley’s
Point, New Jersey, above indicated, on each side of the mouth,
hanging from the upper lip, were a number of lernean parasites, and
these were thickly covered with a hydroid parasite. The lernean
appears to be an undescribed species, and may therefore be distin-
guished by the following name and characters :
Lerneonema procera.—Animal pale yellowish. Head horizontal,
semi-oval, convex above, with three short, blunt occipital tubercles,
fore part convex, excavated beneath and enclosing the mouth, an-
tennze, and maxillipeds ; neck long, linear, cylindrical ; body short,
fusiform, and truncated behind ; tail longer than the body, linear,
cylindrical. Egg pouches long, linear, cylindrical. Length 7omm. ;
including egg pouches, 97 mm. Head 3 mm. long; neck 30 to 45
mm. long, 0.375 thick; body 10 to 12 mm. long, 1.75 thick; tail 12
to 15 mm. long, 0.5 thick. Egg pouches 20 mm. long, 0.25 thick.
The hydromedusarium appears to belong to Fucope parasitica,
found in the same manner by A. Agassiz, in a lernean of Ortha-
goriscus mola. Some of the stems rise from the creeping root from
5 to 8 millimeters, with short branches, two or three ringed. The
polyp-cups are 0.375 mm. long by 0.25 wide. The stems are 0.1
mm. thick, and the alternate lateral branches about o.2 long.
From the fins of a Shark, also caught at Beesley’s Point, but the
name not ascertained, there was obtained a single specimen of a
lernean, which nearly resembles the Perrisopus dentatus, of Steen-
strup and Lutken. Itis 5 mm. long. The cephalothorax is a little
smaller than the abdominal segment, and between them are three
pairs of dorsal lobes which completely cover the space. The egg
pouches are linear and 0.25 mm. thick.

Parasites of the Rock Fish.—Dr. Leidy stated that he recently had
examined the gills and entrails of a Rock Fish, Labvax lineatus,
weighing 20 pounds, on which he made the following remarks :
216 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
The gills were swarming with the little crustacean parasite A7gasi/us
labracis. In many of these the thorax and egg-sacs were opaque
milk-white, but in most of them the latter were more translucent
and of a blue color. This difference is due to the development of
the embryos, within which there appears blue pigment.
Attached to the gills there were three opaque milk-white fluke-
worms, and a fourth of the same kind was embedded in the muscular
coat of the pharynx. ‘These appear to pertain to an undescribed
species, and may therefore be distinguished by the following name
and description :
Distomum galactosomum.—Opaque milk-white, depressed, spatu-
late, narrowest in advance, obtusely rounded at both extremities,
dorsally convex, ventrally flat. Head rounded truncate or trans-
versely oval discoid, with prominent margin, unarmed ; neck short,
slightly widening to the ventral acetabulum, which is sessile, larger
than the oral acetabulum and with its orifice appearing triangular ;
posterior part of the body elliptical, in movement expanding and
becoming thinner and translucent and concave beneath, with the
opaque white intestine on each side shining through. At rest about
6 mm. long by 2 mm. wide, elongating to 12 mm. by 2.5 mm. wide
posteriorly and 1 mm. at the base of the neck.
After being killed in dilute alcohol the specimens remained of
spatulate shape, 6 to8 mm. long, 2 mm. wide behind. The oral
acetabulum 0.625 broad ; the ventral acetabulum, situated 1.375 mm.
back of the summit of the head, was 0.875 broad.
When the animal was in motion and expanded the posterior por-
tion of the body to such an extent as to render it translucent, the
intestine on each side became especially conspicuous through its
white opacity. The intestines extended directly from the minute
pharynx to the caudal extremity, more or less tortuous, according
to the degree of elongation or shortening of the animal. ‘They are
widest back of the ventral acetabulum and are sacculated. In the
expanded condition of the body, by transmitted light, it exhibited a
minutely recticular appearance, the lines of the rete being more
opaque white and apparently according with a capillary net com-
municating laterally with the vessels proceeding from the caudal
vesicle. The opaque white appearance of the body seems to be due
to the presence of granules of calcium carbonate, for the application
of acetic acid caused their disappearance with the evolution of bub-
bles of gas, and the body became more uniformly translucent with-
out, however, affecting the white opacity of the intestines. The
generative apparatus appears to be undeveloped, as no distinct

organs were observable. At the middle of the posterior portion of
the body, in the usual position of the testes, there appeared a single
clearer spot, and in advance of it a clearer streak. The character
of these he had not determined.
Many worms, the Echinorhynchus proteus, clung to the interior of
the intestine its whole length, but they were not so numerous as nor
larger than they are commonly found to be in smaller individuals of
the same fish.
Of two other large Rock-fish examined, weighing each about a
dozen pounds, one was free of parasites of all kinds, and in the
other there were only a few of the little crustacean, A7gasz/us, adher-
ing to the gills; and within the abdominal cavity, adherent to the
stomach, closely coiled and encysted, a dozen nematoid worms, the
Agamonema capsularia, a common parasite of the shad and herring.
Neither of the fish contained a single Echinorhynchus, a remarkable
circumstance, for he had never before examined a Rock-fish without
finding this parasite present.
[May, 1888. No. 564. See Bibliography. }
Louse of the Pelican.—Prof. Leidy remarked that the admirable
monograph of E. Piaget, ‘‘ Les Pediculines,’’ a large work, with
supplement, in three quarto volumes, illustrated, and published in
Leyden from 1880 to 1885, presented tonight, had reminded him
that he had formerly made a communication to the Academy on an
insect of the kind, which was remarkable on account of its living in
the pouch of the Pelican. A brief description of the louse, under
the name of J/enopon perale, is given inthe Proceedings, 1878, p. 100.
Mr. Piaget describes two species of Menopon from Pelicans, J7/. ¢/an,
living on Pelicanus onocrotalus and J/. consanguineum, which he ob-
serves appears by preference to infest the interior of the great pouch
of P. erythrorhynchus. Heremarks of the latter that it probably has
some relation with J/enopon perale, and regrets the insufficient de-
scription of this species for comparison. Prof. Leidy continued that
M. Piaget’s figures of J/enopon titan and AT. consanguineum appear
so nearly alike and resemble so closely JZ. perale that from his own
judgment he would have regarded them as all of one species. In
1878 he had prepared a more detailed description, with figures of
Menopon perale, intended for publication in one of the Government
reports, but, as it was not called for, it was forgotten until he was
reminded of it by the appearance of the great work of M. Piaget.
Menopon perale was named from specimens submitted to him by
Prof. Wyman, who obtained it from the pouch of Pelécanus trachyrhyn-
218 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
chus, in Florida, and others obtained by Dr. E. Coues from the same
bird, on the Red River, near Pembina, Dakota. Dr. Coues, in his
‘‘ Birds of the Northwest,’’ U.S. Geol. Surv., 1874, 587, says of the
White Pelican: ‘‘I took a female in very poor flesh, with worn,
harsh plumage, which was attributable to a disease of the pouch.
On the inside of this organ was fastened, in patches, great numbers
of a louse, which produced an induration, ulceration, and finally
perforation of the membrane.’’ ’
The characters of Wenopon perale as drawn from his original manu-
script are as follows: Head wider than long, transverse reniform,
pale brown, with a darker patch and acrescentoid black spot between
the clypeus and temple, fringed in front with short hairs, with a
longer tuft at the posterior lateral lobe, and a row of eight along the
posterior concave border. Antennz concealed beneath the head,
with the terminal joint largest and oval. Maxillary palpi cylin-
drical, reaching to the lateral border of the head, four jointed.
Mandibles strong, deeply two-toothed, black. Eyes two, close to-
gether on each side of the lateral border of the head. Prothorax
narrower than the head, rounded hexagonal in outline and produced
laterally in a strong conical point, pale brown above, with a darker
band crossing the middle and darker at the lateral borders, smooth.
Metathorax as wide as the head, bell-shaped in outline, with lateral
rounded angles ; crossed by a row of hairs. Limbs well produced ;
anterior femora short and robust ; the posterior two nearly twice as
long as the former and darker brownincolor. Tibize with a spur at
the distal extremity. Tarsus with an ovate appendage at the prox-
imal extremity, and a single hair at the distal extremity. Ungues
strong, black. Abdomen long elliptical, nearly twice the length of
the head and thorax, and widest at the fourth segment. Segments
of nearly equal length, the last one mammiliform, all with a wide
chestnut brown band, and a row of short hairs emanating from clear
circular bases. Last segment with an additional tuft of hairs on
each side.
Entire length 21% lines; color translucent whitish and transversely
striped with chestnut brown. Smaller individuals paler in color,
with narrower stripes of brown.
In an individual 4.75 mm. long, the head was 0.75 long and i mm.
broad ; the prothorax 0.55 long and 0.825 broad ; the metathorax
9.625 long and 1 mm. broad ; the abdomen 2.875 long and 1.25 mm.
broad.
Attached singly or in groups up to fifteen or more between the
olds of the lining membrane of the pouch of Pelicanus trachyrhynchus.

PARASITES OF THE SHAD AND HERRING. *
With the view of ascertaining the parasites of the shad, Alosa
sapidissima, | examined the entrails of fifty fish brought to our mar-
ket from the rivers of the south and from the Delaware. Most of
them were found to be infested with two nematoid worms, the Aga-
monema capsularia, Diesing, and the Ascaris adunca, Rudolphi, and
all of them with the larva or scolex of a cestoid worm, which I pro-
pose to distinguish as Gymmnoscolex picta. J also examined half a
dozen of the closely allied fish, the common herring, Clupea haren-
gus, in which I also found the Agamonema capsularia and Gymmno-
scolex picta, but not the Ascaris adunca.
Agamonema capsularia, Diesing.—This worm, known only in the
immature sexual condition, is a frequent and common parasite of
many fishes. Called by Linnzeus the Gordius marinus, it has been
described under various other names by different authors. Observed
in Europe as a parasite of the herring, it has also been there noticed
in the salmon, mackerel, cod, turbot, halibut, and other fishes. In
our herring it appears to be a constant parasite, sometimes few and
often in considerable numbers. It occupies the abdominal cavity
among the viscera usually encysted in the peritoneum about the
stomach and intestine, and especially the pyloric appendages, and less
frequently on the liver and roes. It often forms flat and close spiral
coils, lying on the viscera or appended to them. Frequently it is ob-
served free and incessantly wriggling; but in this condition I suspect
the worm has escaped from its cyst after the death of the herring.
The Agamonema is also a common parasite of the Shad, and
though usually occurring in small numbers, appears to be as constant
as in the Herring. Mostly, too, it is larger than in the latter, and is
found in the same positions and conditions. It is most frequently
observed in conspicuous coils, appended to the viscera, and especially
to the ccecal extremity of the stomach. It was found in every Shad
examined, from three to a dozen or more.
The characters of the 4gamonema of the Herring were as follows :
Body slender, most tapering in advance, translucent white, and often
with the intestines brownish, but in others white. Head rounded,
truncate and bordered by conical papillee, with the mouth unarmed,
but furnished to one side with a minute conical spine attached by a
broad base. ‘Tail short, conical, incurved, blunt, but terminating in
a minute mucro.

Length, 10 to 18 mm.; thickness, 0.25 to 0.375 mm.; tail, 0.12 to
0.24 mm. long.
The cesophagus is long and cylindrical and is defined from the
intestine by a marked constriction. The intestine has a long trans-
lucent diverticulum directed backward from its commencement, and
another more opaque directed forward along the opposite side of the
cesophagus.
The 4gamonema of the Shad ranged from 15 to 25 mm. by 0.3 and
0.5 to 0.625 mm. in thickness, with the tail 0.125 to 0.25 mm.
In the smaller, translucent individuals the alimentary canal appeared
to be like that in the 4gamonema of the Herring, but in the largest
individuals I am uncertain whether the condition is the same.
The number of papille to the head of 4Agamonema appears to be
three, but of this I could not satisfy myself. Wedl describes the
Agamonema of the Mackerel as having the mouth armed with a con-
ical tooth, which is capable of being protruded and retracted within
a sheath. (Sitzungsb. Akad. Wiss., 1855, 18, Taf. III, Fig. 24.)
In the worms under examination, I could see no such tooth, but to
one side of the mouth, as above described, a little conical spine fixed
by a spreading base, and commonly projecting obliquely forward and
outward.
Ascaris adunca, Rudolphi. ‘This worm was originally described as
a parasite of the European Shad, Alosa vulgaris. It isa frequent
though not a constant parasite of our Shad, and commonly appears
to occur few in numbers. From two to half a dozen were found in
three-fourths of the Shad examined. It occurs in the intestine,
pyloric appendages, and less frequently in the stomach. In general
appearance it resembles the 4gamonema, but is readily distinguished
by its large lips. Its characters are as follows: Body cylindrical,
thickest posteriorly and tapering in advance ; caudal extremity in-
curved. Lips large and conspicuous, tail short, conical, acute.
Male with the caudal extremity spirally inrolled ; with a pair of
curved spicules.
Female 12 to 4o mm. long; 0.3 to 1.125 mm. thick ; tail 0.125 to
0.25 mm. long. Male, 20 to 30 mm. long, 0.45 to 0.55 mm. thick.
In the smaller individuals the body is more uniformly cylindrical or
less tapering in advance. This worm I formerly confounded with
its associate Agamonema (Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phila., 1856, 55).
Gymnoscolex picta.—In all the Shad and Herring subjected to
examination there occurred a larva or scolex of a cestoid worm,
which, though closely resembling the Scolex polymorphus, I suspect
to be different, and have therefore given it another name. ‘The lat-

ter species is attributed to numerous marine fishes of European seas,
but among them neither the Shad nor Herring have been indicated.
Scolex picta appears to occur almost constantly in our Shad and Her-
ring. It was found along the course of the intestine, but especially
in the pyloric portion and in its appendages. Commonly not very
numerous, sometimes there were but few, but generally from about
adozen to fifty and upwards. In the abundant mucus of the viscera
they appear as white granules, about the size of ordinary sand
grains. Their characters are as follows: In the quiescent condition
with the head withdrawn into the body ; spheroid, ovoid, ovate, or
cordate ; in front rounded or truncate and more or less emarginate
or projecting in a bipapillate manner; posterior third conical, ob-
tuse or sub-acute, and annularly rugose. In the active condition
with the head projected, clavate, elongating and becoming linear
behind with the disappearance of the annular rugez. Head pro-
vided with four hemispherical bothria and a central spheroidal, cup-
like rostellum and with a bright red pigment streak on each side.

tion the posterior portion becomes more or less annularly constricted.
In greatest activity the head is protruded and the body greatly elon-
gated, and alternately shortens and elongates. With elongation —
the annular appearance of the posterior part entirely disappears.
The rostellum and bothria are incessantly protruded and retracted
and become more or less oval in form. In the quiescent state, by
transmitted light, the head appears as a nearly central clearer spot
embraced at the sides by the pigment streaks. When the bothria
are protruded, the latter are situated posterior to them.
The body of the Sco/ex is filled with the usual oval, clear, sharply
defined corpuscles. Under moderate pressure the water vascular
system is brought into view. This appears as a tortuous vessel,
proceeding forward on each side of the body from a little terminal
caudal vesicle, returning from the head where it forms an expanded
loop on each side of the rostellum.
With the Sco/ex as described there were found some smaller indi-
viduals having the same characters, but without the conspicuous
pigment streak.
The Scolex of the Shad and Herring has a near resemblance to
the Scolex polymorphus, Rudolphi, and it may, perhaps, prove to be
the same. This species is described as having the bothria divided
by a transverse partition, which is not the case in the Sco/ex under
consideration. Van Beneden, however, represents forms of the
S. polymorphus of the Turbot, without the division of the bothria
(Mem. Acad. de Belgique, xxv, pl. 1, Figs. 1-3).
The mature tapeworm of the Sco/ex of the Shad and Herring is
yet unknown and no doubt has for its host some animal that appre-
ciates these fish for food quite as much as man does.

Parasites of the Pickerel.—Dr. Leidy remarked that among the nu-
merous parasites which are mentioned as infesting the Pike, “sox
/ucius, of Europe, no 7wnia is indicated. In the Pickerel, sox
reticulatus, brought to our market, a species of the latter appears
to be common. In two fishes he found half a dozen in the intestine
and stomach ; and in another a single individual two feet in length.
It resembles closely the Zenza ambloplitis, noticed in the Rock Bass,
Ambloplitis rupestris (Proc., 1887, 23), and may be the same. Dis- ~
tinguishing it with the name of 7nia leptosoma, its characters are
as follows: Body long and thin, and at the forepart thread-like.
Head unarmed, without rostellum, with four equidistant hemi-
spherical bothria; neck very short or none; anterior segments

transversely linear, many times wider than long ; posterior segments
gradually becoming proportionately longer and quadrate and barrel
shaped; genital apertures marginal, alternating irregularly. Ova
spherical.
Length from 6 to 9 and 26 inches, shortening to one half or less :
breadth to 2 and 2.5mm. Head 0.25 to 0.5 mm. broad : bothria
0.125 to 0.175 mm. Anterior segments an inch from the head
0.175 mm. long by 1 mm. broad ; posterior segments 0.5 to0.75 mm.
long by 2 to 2.5 mm. broad. Ova 0.028 to 0.032 mm. in diameter.
A single slender Sco/ex associated with the longest 7nia was 4
mm. long by 0.25 wide, but elongated to 8 mm. by 0.1 wide. The
head was of the same form as that of the Zia. After being in
alcohol, the head of the Sco/ex was 0.225 mm. wide, with the both-
ria 0.1 in diameter. The posterior part of the body exhibited traces
of segmentation, with the segments 0.075 mm. long by 0.25 wide.

Food of Barnactes.—Prof. Leidy stated that last summer, in June,
walking on the shore at Beach Haven, N. J., he picked up a bunch
of Goose-barnacles, Lepas fascicularis, attached to a fragment of a
grass-stem, Sfartina. Finding at the time nothing else of interest,
he examined the specimens, not having previously dissected a Bar-
nacle since 1848, when he observed the eyes in Balanus rugosus.
(See Proc., 1848, 9.)
All the specimens of Lefas, of which there were nine, had the
body distended with a brownish-yellow Cyclops in large number, fresh
in appearance and generally entire. Under the circumstances he at
first suspected that they might be a larval form of the Zefas, though
aware of the fact that the cirripeds proceed from a Nauplius embryo,
‘which passes through a Cypris stage before assuming the Barnacle
condition. On further investigation he was convinced that the
Cyclops were food and filled the stomach. It appeared remarkable
that they should have been so well preserved and not crushed by the
strongly six-toothed mandibles of the Barnacle. Some additional
specimens of this species and a few of Lefas anatifera subsequently
examined did not contain such an accumulation of similar food, but
usually the contents of the stomach consisted from two to half a
dozen small gastropods with the shell, several species of entomostraca,
some sand grains, and a few vegetable fibers. In all the brood-
capsule, a thin elliptical lamina, situated between the body and the
shell, contained Nauplius larve.

Extract from Fauna of Beach Haven, N. 7.—From an oyster bed
we took up some young oysters, an inch to two inches long, with
the shell perforated by the ‘‘ drill,’’ Vvosalpinx cinerea. "The perfora-
tion, made in the vicinity of the adductor muscle, about admits an
ordinary bristle. An oyster-catcher, James R. Gale, informed us
that the ‘‘ drill’’ was introduced into the locality with spat brought
from the coast of Virginia. With the Urosalpinx we took another
snail, dzachis similis, which Mr. Gale assured us was more de-
structive, as a borer, to young oysters than the former. Another
snail which we took, the Aupleura caudata, Mr. Gale says has the
same habit.
Attached to oysters were also found a great profusion of the
polyzoon Vesicularia dichotoma.
The shrimp is infested to a wonderful degree with a parasitic
crustacean, Lopyrus palemoneticola.

On Several Gregarines and a Singular Mode of Conjugation of One
of Them.—Prof. Leidy communicated the following on some species
of Gregarina : Among coleopterous insects the family of Tenebrion-
idze appears to be constantly infested with gregarine parasites. A
remarkable species observed in one of our common beetles, Vyctobates
pennsylvanicus, I propose to distinguish by the name of Gregarina
Philica. The body is elongated clavate, variably thickened and
rounded in front, somewhat tapering behind, and with the posterior
end conical. Cephalic division campanulate, with the summit some-
what prolonged and surmounted by a horizontal circular disk with
a rounded milled border. Conjugating individuals with the cephalic
extremity conical and simple, ox without the terminal disk. Length
from 0.3 to 2 mm.; breadth 0.6 to0.15 mm. (Drawing, etc. )
In conjugation the species is remarkable and, so far as I know,
peculiar. In the pairing of most described species of Gregarina, two
individuals, commonly of the same size, conjoin in the same line,
the cephalic extremity of one attached to the caudal end of the
other. In the species under consideration I have observed that the
pairs conjoin, as represented in the accompanying figure, with the
heads together and the bodies side by side. In numerous instances
the position was invariable, and in all, the couples variably differed
in size. Thus in one pair the longer individual was 1.75 mm. long
and the smaller one 0.75 mm. long, and in another pair the larger
individual was 2 mm. long and the other 1.75 mm. (Drawing.)
ay
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 225
The species is pretty constantly found in the pro-ventriculus of
Nyctobates pennsylvanicus.
Another interesting Gregarina is frequent in a common myriapod
of our forests, the Scolopocryptops sexspinosus. It resembles the forms
described by Kolliker as G. Sveboldiz and by Siebold as G. oligacantha,
referred by Stein to Stvlorhynchus, and by Schneider to Hoplorhynchus.
These are common in Europe in the larva of a dragon-fly, Callopteryx
virgo. The species under consideration I propose to name Gregarina
actinotus. ‘The body is elongated conical, thickest and rounded in
advance and acute behind. The cephalic division is depressed sphe-
roid and broader than long, and is surmounted by a long vase-like
rostrum expanding at the top in a horizontal wheel-like disk divided
at the border into short digitiform rays. Length from 0.06 to 0.52
mm.; breadth too.08 mm.; rostrum 0.08 too.1 mm. long. (Drawing. )
The accompanying figure represents the parasite. It iscommonly
found in considerable numbers, adherent by the rostrum to the inner
surface of the proventriculus, looking like minute Echinorhynchi.
After finding the curious Gregarine of Scolopocryplops, one morning
subsequently I found a fine Cermatia forceps in my bed-room. In it
was another species which may be named Gregarina megacephala.
The body is elongated ovate and acute or short clavate and obtuse
with an unusually large ovoid and often constricted head, sur-
mounted by a small rounded or elongated appendage. Length 0.42
to 0.75 mm. to 0.24 broad ; head about one-fourth the length of the
body. It approximates Dufouria agilis of Schneider, found in the
larva of a Hydracantharis.
Insome little green beetles, Joplocephala bicornis, one of the Tene-
brionidz, I found a number of gregarines remarkable for the small
size of the head and hence the species may be named Gvegarina mi-
crocephala. The body is clavate ; the head like a watch crystal with
a little ball at the summit. Length 0.35 mm. by o.1 wide; head
0.012 long by 0.04 wide.
It bears a close resemblance to Echinocephalus hispidus of Schneider,
found in Lithobius for.ipatus, but in the one described I at no time
found digitiform appendages to the head.

A Parasitic Copepod.—Prof. Leidy remarked that last summer while
at Beach Haven, N. J., there was brought to him from the surf a
living specimen of the singular, transparent fish, Leptocephalus. In
examining it he observed attached to the tail-fin a minute copepod
crustacean, apparently of the genus Chalimus. ‘The parasite was
attached by a long filiform rostrum and resembled in this and other
respects more the Chalimus scombert, as represented by Baird, in
Fig. 5, Tab. xxxiii, of the British Entomostraca, than it does the
original of this species, as represented by Burmeister in the Nova
Acta N.C. of Bonn, xvii, Tab. 23, Fig. 13. Thespecies, which may
be distinguished as Chalimus tenuis, is considerably less than half
the size of C. scombert. "The cephalothorax, nearly twice the length
of the breadth, is obcordate and proportionately much narrower than
in the latter species. The frontal segment is narrow and not prom-
inent laterally, and the biarticulate antennz are concealed beneath.
The abdomen, half the length of the cephalothorax, exhibits three
conspicuous divisions, and the short caudal appendages end in three
minute setee. Abdominal feet ending in biramous leaf-like segments
fringed with short setae. Rostrum linearand almost as long as the
cephalothorax. Whole length 1.125 mm.; length of cephalothorax
0.5 mm.; breadth 0.275 ; length of rostrum 0.5 mm.;(?) length of
abdomen 0.25 mm.

four diameters. (Drawing. )

Hypoderas in the Little Blue Heron.—Prot. Leidy stated that Dr.
B. H. Warren had submitted to his examination some pieces of the
flesh, with areolar tissue and fat, from two individuals of the Little
Blue Heron, Florida cerulea, through which were scattered a num-
ber of little egg-like bodies. These on examination proved to be a
Mite of the genus A/ypoderas of Nitsch, of which a dozen species
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 227
found as subcutaneous parasites in different birds have been de-
scribed by Giebel (Zeitschrift gesam. Naturwis., 1861, 438). The
bodies in the Little Blue Heron were enclosed in connective tissue
on the surface of the portions of muscles and elsewhere. They are
white, elliptical, from 1.25 to 1.5 mm. long by 0.375 mm. broad,
and are provided with four pairs of short, brown, bristly limbs. In
other specimens submitted by Dr. Warren, consisting of the carcass
and portions of the flesh of four individuals of the Blue-bird, Sialia
sialis, similar egg-like bodies were found. They appeared to be
embedded in the flesh among the muscular fibers. In the carcass
they were scattered, especially on the back of the trunk, the neck,
and the outside of the upper part of the thighs. They are white,
elongated elliptical bodies from 1 to 2 mm. long, but without any
external appendages. No distinct internal structure was observed.
Though resembling to the naked eye the Hypoderas Mites, they are
probably of a different nature, and perhaps may be psorosperms.

Remarks on Ticks.—Prof. Leidy remarked that in his visit to
Beach Haven, N. J., to spend the summer, he found the mosquito
less numerous than usual, but in the earlier part of the season the
Tick more frequent. One day in June, after passing for a few
yards among some Myrica bushes, he picked eight of them from his
clothes. They were repeatedly taken from a pet dog, but usually
escaped notice until more or less filled with blood. Three in
succession were unnoticed until fully distended and voluntarily
detached themselves. One of these was weighed and found to be
twelve grains. It was also found that it required nine unfed ticks
to weigh one grain, so that the fed ones increased to more than one
hundred times their weight and bulk. Curious to learn something
of the life of the Tick, the three specimens were placed in a box in
the beginning of July, in some moist sand and moss. ‘They sought
a slight hollow in the sand, from which they afterward did not
move. After a week they began laying eggs, and this went on for
a couple of weeks, until each Tick had extruded a mass nearly as
large as itself. The eggs were laid in advance of the position of
the body, discharged from between the anterior two pair of legs, the
Ticks remaining constantly in contact with them. The eggs were
oval, brown, and shining and measured 0.5 mm. long. The parents
became much contracted and shriveled and all died from the 16th
to the 18th of August, about the time the eggs began to hatch.
This continued for about a week, until all were hatched.
228 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
The larval Ticks were brown, ovate, and possessed three pairs of
limbs. They measured 0.6 mm. long and 0.4 mm. broad. As
many escaped between the side of the lid and the box in which they
were contained, they were transferred into a glass bottle with a cork
stopper about an inch broad. The ticks gradually collected into
three compact swarms, the largest of which was formed beneath the
cork its whole breadth and sometimes, in part at least, nearly a line
thick. Another swarm compacted itself in the interval of two
crossing twigs about as long and thick as the little finger, and the
third formed a dome-like mass about one-third of an inch broad, on
one of the twigs. From time to time they partially scattered, and
then collected again in the same close swarms.
Exhibited to the Academy this evening, September 23, the young
Ticks appear yet to be alive and in good condition, though they
have eaten nothing. Fruit and other parts of plants have been
placed at their service, but they do not even approach them. On
two occasions some were placed on Prof. Leidy’s arm, but they did
not seem disposed to attach themselves.
The mature Ticks present two well marked varieties, probably
the two sexes. In the one there is a conspicuous white spot on the
back immediately behind the head, sharply defining a thoracic
shield. In the other there is no distinct appearance of the shield,
but fainter white streaks lie outside of its position and extend in
four feebler streaks on the abdomen, apparently defining the intes-
tinal cceca. In the former the genital aperture is central between
the anterior two pair of limbs; in the latter it is between the second
pair of limbs. The blood-filled specimens that laid the eggs accord
with the former.
He was unable with certainty to refer our common Tick to its
proper place among the multitude that have been named, but sup-
posed it to be the Amblyomma americanum of Koch, indicated earlier
by Linnzeus as dcarus americanus. ‘There is much uncertainty in
the knowledge of our Ticks. Koch ascribes nine species to North
America, referring them to the genera Amblyomma, [xodes, and Der-
macentor, the last belonging to Pennsylvania. Say describes six
other species of /vodes, Packard two, and Riley one. Say’s J/vodes
scapularis, which the author says is common in our forests and at-
taches itself to various animals, seems to approach closely the Beach
Haven Tick, and Riley’s /rodes bovis also seems to accord pretty
well, judging from the figures and characters given. If, however,
the latter at maturity is half an inch long, as stated by Packard, it
is most probably a different species from the Amblyomma america-
aa

num. He had in his possession a Tick, distended with blood, half
an inch in length, which came from Camp Sheridan, Nebraska,
agreeing in all respects with those from Beach Haven.
Amblyomma differs from /vodes in the possession of eyes, and he
was by no means satisfied that the Beach Haven Ticks possess such
organs, unless they form the prominent posterior angles of the head.
The Ticks have been supposed to feed on vegetable matter until
they reach maturity. As the mouth organs of the larva do not
differ from those of the adult, he thought this doubtful.
In the American Entomologist, 1870, p. 160, Seed-Ticks found
under the bark of apple trees are stated to be the young of one of
our most common Wood-Ticks, /vodes unipunctata, but he thought
this has not been positively determined to be the case.
He had been repeatedly told of a minute tick, commonly called
the Seed-Tick, not uncommon in our vicinity, which attacks man
and buries itself beneath the skin. He had suspected it to be the
young of /vodes, but had no opportunity of determining the question.
Norre.—The following day, September 24, the young Ticks ap-
peared generally less active, and many were motionless and seemed
dead. ‘Thirty active ones were placed on the inside of his fore-arm,
and there remained for ten minutes, but as they wandered about
aimlessly and with no apparent disposition to attach themselves, they
were removed.
Though the young Ticks had not fed, they actually seem to have
grown, for at the present time they generally measure 0.725 mm. in
length by 0.45 mm. in breadth.
The adult male and female appear about the same size, for the two
range from 1-8th to 3-16ths of an inch in length. One of those dis-
tended with blood measured 9-16ths of an inch long by 6-16ths in
breadth, and similar specimens after having laid their eggs had
shrunken to 7-16ths by 5-16ths.
Finally the same day the Ticks were placed in alcohol for preserva-
tion.

Parasites of Mola rotunda.—Prof. Leidy stated that one day during
his stay at Beach Haven, N. J., while men of the life-saving station
were directly off shore watching the bathers in case of accident, a
Sun fish, Iola rotunda, approached the boat, apparently, as they
supposed, sleeping. The fish, weighing nearly two hundred pounds,
was readily taken without resistance. It proved to be of additional
interest from the great number and variety of parasites with which
230 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
it was infested. Some of these had occasioned a considerable degree
of ulceration along the base of the caudal fin. Chief among them
was the large Lernea, Penella filosa, which hung in great clusters
from the root of the dorsal and other fins. They were from five to
seven inches long, and had the head and neck buried in the flesh of
the fish from one to three inches. ‘To many of them were appended:
the curious barnacle, Conchoderma virgata ; on one Penella a bunch
of seven, most of which were nearly two inches long. Were also
more or less profusely covered with colonies of the Hydroid Polvp;,
Liucope parasitica.
The characters of the Pene/la are as follows: Head compressed
spheroid, ventrally thickly papillate, dorsally with a median and
lateral pair of obtuse horns. Neck long and cylindrical, with 4 pairs
of minute black hooks just behind the head ventrally. Thorax
thicker, cylindrical, annulated. Abdomen or tail shorter, narrower
and annulated, with crowded lateral filamentary appendages branch-
ing from the base. Ovaries long and filiform. Head, neck, and
ovaries straw-colored ; thorax, abdomen, and appendages black.
In the Régne Animal of Cuvier, it says, there is in the Mediter-
ranean a species, Penella filosa, seven or eight inches long, which
penetrates into the flesh of the Sword-fish, the Tunny, and the Sun-
fish, and torments them horribly. Similar cases of the wonderful
bounty of nature are frequent, and remind us of the remarks of Mr.
Spencer, considered more favorable to the evolutionary than to the
special creation theory. Whileto both may be applied the question,
why the amount of suffering entailed on sentient beings by parasites
could not have been avoided, to the former there does not arise the
question, why are they deliberately inflicted ?
Of other crustacean parasites of the Sun-fish there were three. Of
these one, Cecvops Latreillii, each, was attached to the gills. Six;
mature females were about an inch in length, and three of them had
the male appended, about half the length, and had well-stocked ova-
ries. ‘Three additional young females were 14 mm. long.
The other two species were attached to ulcerated surfaces at the
root of the caudal fin. One of them, -@margus muricatus Kroyer,’
of which there were four females, were from 15 to 18 mm. long.
The remaining species, nearly resembling @margus, seems to be
the Dinematura serrata Kroyer, of which there were three females
from 6 to 7 mm. long.
Gliding on the skin, at the sides of the body of the fish, was the
circular Fluke-worm, 77istomum Rudolphianum, of which four ranged
from 16 to 20 mm. in breadth.

_ In the intestine was another apparently undescribed Fluke-worm,
which may be named Disfomum pedocotyle. Of three individuals one
was 20 mm. long by 0.5 mm. thick ; the others were 40 to 45 mm.
long and 1.5 mm. thick. The body is cylindrical, narrowest at the
fore part and obtuse behind, with the ventral bothria larger than the
mouth and projecting in advance to an extent equal to the body ;
with the skin smooth and transparent, the yeliow intestine and the
white and brown genitals shining through.
The soft, yellow liver was throughout pervaded with a cestoid
worm, Anthocephalus elongatus Rudolphi. ‘The organ looked like a
bundle of tangled cotton cord packed in the hepatic substance. . The
larger worms were probably upward of several feet in length, but
with much effort about a foot and a half of only one individual was
disengaged from the liver. In the larger specimens the cystic en-
velope of the cephalic end appears as a vesicle from a fourth to half
an inch in diameter. When disengaged, the cephalic extremity
appears as a sausage-shaped expansion, from three-fourths to an inch
long, within which was the inverted head and neck from half to
three-fourths of an inch long. The head, provided with a pair of
lateral oblique bothria, enclosed four thread-like proboscides armed
with numerous recurved hooks.

NOTICES OF ENTOZOA.
1. Ascaris lumbricoides, Linné.
2. Trichocephalus dispar, Rudolphi.
3. ? Filaria primana, n. s.
In the dissection of an Orang, Simia satyrus, which died in our
Zodlogical Garden, Dr. H. C. Chapman found in the intestines sev-
eral worms (Proc. 1880, 166), which were submitted to my examin-
ation. ‘Three seem in no respect to differ from the ordinary Ascaris
lumbricoides, one of the specimens being 18 centimeters long. One
from the ccecum seems to be Zrichocephalus dispar, The occurrence
of these parasites of man in a near relative outside the genus is an
interesting fact.
Three other worms are unknown to me and I am in doubt as to
their generic character. They are females, and measure up to 26
centimeters long by 2.75 millimeters thick. They are more robust
than species of /i/aria commonly are, and in this respect are more
like Eustrongylus gigas. Although neither of these usually live in
the intestine, I provisionally refer the worms to the former genus.
The body is nearly uniformly cylindrical, being 2.5 mim. thick, one

NOTICE OF SOME ENTOZOA.
Distoma crassum, Busk. Cobbold: Proc. Linn. Soc., 1860, vol.
aD. 15,
Mr. Busk, an English surgeon, in 1843 announced the occurrence
in the intestine of a Lascar or Hindoo seaman, who died in London,
of a large species of Fluke, for which he suggested the name of
Distoma crassum. Fourteen specimens obtained ranged from 4 to 6
em. long by 1.7 to 2cm. broad. ‘The same parasite has since been
reported as occurring in Chinese and in Europeans living in China.
240 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
(Cobbold, Parasites, 1879, 21.) In our Proceedings for 1873, p.
304, I gave notice of a specimen from a Chinese boy, which I then
supposed to be a larger individual than usual of the more common
LD. hepaticum.
On several occasions I have had the opportunity of examining
some large Flukes from the liver of our Deer, Cervus virginianus,
and the Domestic Ox, which appear to be identical with the 7.
crassum. The specimens preserved in alcohol and submitted to me
are as follows :
Six individuals, obtained from the liver of a Doe, in the Adiron-
dack Mountains of New York, by Dr. R. A. F. Penrose. These
range from 5 to6 cm. long by 1.5 to 2.5 cm. broad and 1.5 to 2.5
mm. thick.
Three individuals from the liver of a Calf at Hot Springs, Ark.,
obtained by Dr. G. W. Lawrence. The specimens much contracted
and hardened by strong alcohol measure 3.5 cm. long by 2 to 2.4
cm, broad. An imperfect one is from 3 to 4 mm. thick at the
broken border; white for half the thickness dorsally and black
ventrally.
Two individuals recently received from Texas from Dr. M. Fran-
cis, veterinary surgeon, who writes that the monster Flukes occur
there in cattle in limited number in the liver-tissue and not in the
bile-ducts like the Distoma hepaticum. The specimens measure 3.5
and 4 cm. long by 2 and 2.5 cm. broad.
The Flukes from all three hosts accord in character except size,
and in many points appear closely related with the ). hepaticum.
They are elliptical in outline and of greater proportionate breadth
than in the latter. The oral pole is conical, but not abruptly pro-
longed as in that species. The caudal pole is broadly rounded and
entire or medially slightly emarginate. The dorsal surface is con-
vex, smooth, and cream-colored ; the ventral surface flat or slightly
concave, minutely granulate or brownish margined with black, due
to the vitelline organs shining through. The oral and ventral ace-
tabula are from 4 to 5 mm. apart; the former oral about 1.5 mm.
wide ; the latter slightly larger. Genital aperture midway between
the acetabula. Penis in some individuals exserted as a short tor-
tuous papilla. The sides of the body extending from near the head
to the tail, occupied by intensely black dendritic vitelline organs.
The body is less tenacious than in D). hepaticum, is soft and easily
broken.
Accompanying the monster Flukes from Texas were eighteen
specimens of the ordinary Liver-Fluke, Disfoma hepaticum, up to

3.5 cm. long by 9 mm. broad, which Dr. Francis observes are very
destructive to Cattle and Sheep in some parts of Texas.
The facts related of the recent occurrence of the large Fluke in
the Deer and Ox in different portions of the United States would
impress one with the idea that the parasite is common with us, but
in view of its conspicuous character and its not having been previ-
ously noticed such is probably not the case. May there be any
relation between the occurrence of the parasite in this country and
the influx of a Chinese population? The facts seem curiously coin-
cidental with the first discovery of 77ichiza in man in England and
its subsequent discovery in the Hog in this country. The Guinea-
worm is believed to have been introduced into tropical America
with the Negro from Africa.
Sclerostomum armatum Rudolphi, var. major Diesing ; Syst. Helm.,
I; 304.
Dr. Edward Landis recently submitted to my examination three
worms found coiled in as many thick-walled cysts, in the lung of a
horse. These appear to me to be the larger variety of the Sceros-
tomum armatum, usually found occupying the intestines of the same
animal. The specimens, all females, are from 25 to 30 mm. long by
1.5 mm. thick at the fore part. The body is robust, cylindrical,
more tapering behind, brownish-red, annularly striated ; head dome-
like, defined by an annular stria; mouth large, surrounded by a
prominent annular lip marked by eight radii; tail short, conical,
obtuse.

From the stomach of a Python, ?. molurus, which recently died
in our Zoological Garden, Dr. John L,. Hatch obtained a large mass
of translucent red and green worms, which were submitted to my
examination. These appear to be the Ascaris anoura of Dujardin,
subsequently described under other names by Molin and Schnyder.
The worms for the most part penetrated the recesses of three larger
tumefactions of the mucous membrane of the stomach. The greater
number of the worms were immature, translucent, of a blood-red
color, with a darker intestine shining through, and ranging from 6
to 7 cm. long by about 0.6 mm. thick. The mature females ranged
from 10 to 20 cm. long by 1.5 to 2.5 mm. thick. The males ranged
from 7 to 16 cm. long by 0.875 to 2 mm. thick.

The body of the worms was most narrowed in advance, from pale
red to nearly colorless in the largest and deeper to blood red in the
smaller ones; with the intestine shining through of variable pea
green to greenish-brown and dark brown in the latter, and with the
tortuous ovaries and testes milk white. Cephalic extremity lighter
colored, strongly tapering and with distinctly trilobate mouth. Tail
very short, conical, the length about equal the breadth at base. The
male of more slender proportions, with the caudal end incurved and
the tail more pointed, with a row on each side of ten preanal papillz,
one on each side of the anus and two rows of two on each side of the
tail. Spicules of the penis long, linear, curved andequal. Pharynx
long, cylindrical clavate ; rectum very short.
Worms closely agreeing with those of the Python I have observed
from two of our common snakes, the Hog-nose Snake, Heferodon
platyrhinus, and the other, from the accompanying description, sup-
posed to be the Milk-snake, Ophibolus triangulus. A portion of the
stomach of the latter, preserved with the worms, shows them to have
the same habits as those of the Python; partially occupying the
recesses of the tumefaction of the mucous membrane.

SOME OBSERVATIONS ON NEMATOIDEA IMPERFECTA AND DESCRIP-
TIONS OF THREE PARASITIC INFUSORIE.
1. Nematoideum cavitatis abdominis Passali cornuti (pl. 11, figs.
42-45). ‘This worm is found in the abdominal cavity of the Passalus
cornutus, among the intestines and rete adiposa in about nine-tenths
RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY. 245
of the insects. It is met with frequently in great numbers; I have
in my collection a vial containing over 5,000, obtained from not more
than 40 insects. Sometimes not over half a dozen are found, at
others as many as 500 may be discovered in a single insect. The
worm is usually curved ventrally, and exhibits but little motion
until placed in water, when it becomes quite active, wriggling about
for twenty-four hours or more.
It isabout 1% lines long, but varies from 1 to 2 lines, and is about
1-150th of an inch wide. The color is white, opaque ; occasionally
one or two will be found which are more or less brown or even
black, but otherwise they do not differ in construction or form.
The form is cylindrical, moderately narrowed toward the extremi-
ties ; anteriorly truncated, posteriorly rounded, and terminated by a
short, acute epidermal spine.
The structure is simple, exhibiting within the integument nothing
but an alimentary canal and intervening granular matter.
The integument is thin, strong, elastic, transparent and colorless.
It presents a very faint appearance of being finely annulated.
The mouth is round, large, and surrounded by a slight lobed
margin or lip.
The pharynx is short, cylindrical, presents several longitudinal
striz, and opens into a long, wide, cylindrical cesophagus. ‘The
latter is but faintly outlined from the general granular structure of
the body. It appears to have several longitudinal folds, and at its
commencement has a yellowish colored structure (pl. 11, fig. 45),
apparently corneous, composed of oval or oblong lobes placed side
by side around the commencement of the cesophagus. The ven-
tricular intestine is white, opaque, cylindrical, a little less than the
breadth of the cavity of the body, and in length extending to the
anal aperture. Its interior is covered with an epithelial layer, the
cells of which are granular, apparently containing oil granules, and
measure 1-4200th of an inch in diameter. The posterior extremity
of the ventriculus is rounded, and usually contains a large oblong,
translucent, highly refractive mass, of vicid oleo-albuminoid fluid,
with several smaller globular masses of the same matter. When
the worm is submitted to pressure, a portion of this matter exudes
from the anus, with a number of transparent nucleolar and nuclear
bodies, but the termination of the ventriculus, or its connection with
the anal aperture, is indistinct.
The anus is a short oblique fissure, passing inwards and forwards,
upon the ventral surface, a short distance in advance of the posterior
extremity of the body. It is bounded by projecting lips, but its
246 RESEARCHES IN HELMINTHOLOGY AND PARASITOLOGY.
communication with the intestinal canal I could not detect. Poste-
rior to the ventriculus, the body is occupied with a fluid, finely
granular, and a coarsely granular oil-like matter. The remainder
of the interval of the body is filled with fluid and faintly granular
matter.
Measurements.—Length, 1 to 2 lines; breadth at mouth, 1-600th
inch; breadth at commencement of ventriculus, 1-280th inch;
greatest breadth about middle, 1-150th inch ; breadth just in advance
of anus, I-250thinch. Length of caudal spine, 1-2500th inch ; from
base of spine to anus, 1-300th inch; breadth of ventriculus at com-
mencement, 1-320th inch ; breadth of ventriculus at middle, 1-214th
inch ; breadth of ventriculus at termination, 1-28o0th inch.
This entozoon I have seen in hundreds of the Passa/us, at all
seasons of the year, but in none did I ever discover it in any other
stage of development than the one just described.
From the frequency and great numbers in which it is found, I
thought it would afford an excellent opportunity to try the experi-
ment, if, upon introduction into another animal, it would undergo
any progress in its development. I accordingly obtained from the
forests in our neighborhood, and through my friend Baird from
the forests near Carlisle, over 200 individuals of Passalus Cornutus.
A dozen of them I opened, and found them all infested with great
numbers of the entozoon just described, and I therefore naturally
concluded from this fact, in addition to past experience, that most
or probably all the other insects contained the same. Having ob-
tained a dozen large frogs (Rana pipiens), after keeping them two
weeks until they had voided all indigesta from the alimentary canal,
I killed eight of them, and examined them closely for entozoa. In
seven I found in the lungs Distomum variegatum ; in all, Distomam
cygnoides in the bladder ; none in the intestines ; and in five an im-
perfect stage of a species of /i/aria beneath the mucous coat of the
stomach, in the mesentery, and in the abdominal muscles
The remaining four frogs I then fed daily upon ro individuals of
Fassalus cornutus each for four days in succession, so that each frog
in that time took 4o insects, in all 160. It is not to be presumed
that the frogs voluntarily took this prescribed fare, for I was under
the necessity of cutting off the legs, elytra, and mouth organs of the
insects, and then forcing them into the throat of the frogs.
In twenty-four hours after taking the first involuntary dose of
insect food the frogs commenced voiding the indigestible pergamen-
taceous segments of the skeleton of the insects per anum, which they
————

continued for a week after the unusual mode of administering their
food was stopped.
At the end of two weeks from the commencement of feeding the
frogs I killed one of them, and carefully examined the intestinal
canal and other organs for the Nematoideunz, Passali, but not a trace
of it was to be found. The cloaca yet contained one or two frag-
ments of the skeleton of the Passa/us, with some epithelial scales,
mucus, and a dark, mud-like, granular matter, but nothing else.
The entozoon had been digested with the soft parts of the insect.
Two days after I killed the remaining frogs, but in none did I dis-
cover the slightest trace of the entozoon in question. From the re-
sults thus obtained we may conclude that this parasite finds no con-
dition favorable to its existence, leaving out of the question entirely
any farther development, in frogs, or probably in any reptile. But
still the entozoon may pass part of its existence in other animals.
In a state of nature frogs would rarely have a chance of feasting
upon /assalus (the habitation of Passa/us, however, offers no reason
why a frog should not occasionally feast upon them. At one time
I thought the insect was confined to the haunts in which it is usually
found, but it undoubtedly flies at night, as I have found it in places
where some days before they did not exist, and my late friend, Dr.
Benj. Kern, once brought me half a pint of this insect, which he
obtained on the Atlantic ocean a few miles from shore, with numer-
ous other insects, one morning after there had been a brisk wind in
the night), because the latter is found in forests, beneath bark and
in the wood of decaying dead trees, and here the woodpecker (/czs),
or other insectivorous birds, would be most likely to meet with it,
and with such birds a similar experiment to the one performed with
frogs might be tried to see if the development of the entozoon would
not advance within them.
2. Nematoideum thoracis cavitatis Passali cornuti (pl. 11, Fig. 46).—
This is an anguillula-like worm in an imperfect condition, found
occasionally in the cavity of the thorax of Fassalus cornutus. It
resembles an embryonic Ascaris. Its movements are active and
wriggling. It is whitish, translucent, cylindrical, and attenuated
and acute posteriorly.
Structure.—Integument transparent and colorless. Csophagus
long, narrow, cylindrical, and faintly outlined. Intestine broad,
cylindrical, granular in appearance, and faintly outlined. Anus an
oblique fissure, not very distinct, just in advance of the tail, which
latter is short and acute. Length 1-66th inch; breadth 1-1000th
inch.

3. Nematoideum intestinorum Armadillonis pillularis (pl. 11, Fig.
47).—This is also an anguillalula-like entozoon, found coiled up
and adhering by the mouth to the epithelial layer of the intestine of
Armadillo pillularis. It is white, cylindrical, attenuated, and acute
posteriorly. The intestinal canal presents the same appearance as
in the last, but the cesophagus is broader. Length 1-53d inch ;
breadth 1-36oth inch.
4. Nematoideum integumenti Lumbriculi limosi (pl. 11, Fig. 48).—
This is a small entozoon which I found, six in number, doubled up
and motionless, contained in transparent oval cysts, imbedded in
the integument of the gth, rith, and 5th annuli of a Lumbriculus
limosus. It resembled an embryo within an ovum. Its form is
cylindrical, subacute posteriorly, truncated anteriorly, colorless, and
transparent. No interior organs were observable, except a small,
round, transparent corpuscle posteriorly, and anteriorly a probos-
cidiform body, partly projecting from the anterior extremity.
Length 1-560th of an inch.
