No. 25, p. 72, July, 1825. I myself know some authentic cases of the Meloe majalis, caterpillars and fly maggots which were vomited ; in refe- rence to the latter, we must make strict inquiry; thus, I have seen fly maggots, said to have been vomited, produced from uncleanliness of the spitting-pot, and similar animals, said to be voided by stool, from the filthiness of a padded close- stool.

Similar larvee were also in one case vomited, and in another passed by stool ; case related by 7’. Bateman, v. Edinb. Med. and Surg. Journ Vol. VII. p. 41. I have before me specimens of the Dermestes Murinus, both in the larval and perfect state, which were passed per anum. Three hexapod larve, voided by stool, v. Jessop in Phil. Trans. Vol. X. p. 391, are considered by Kirby as belonging to the Dermestes, Fab. or Byrrhus, Lin. Probably also those men- tioned by Chichester in a case of Hematemesis, in Edinb. Med. and Phys. Journ. Vol. VII. p. 326, belonged to this genus, perhaps are D. Lardarius; but his account is very unsatisfactory; he says that many hundreds were vomited and passed per anum.
