![(29) In man, the following species occur: —— Pedic. capitis, head-louse; Ped. vestimenti, clothes-louse; Ped. tabescentium, Ped. nigritarum and Ped. pubis, crab- louse ;-—cattle, swine, and deer have also their peculiar lice. In diseased men, lice are seen in the skin in pustules (even in the inner parts?) ;——often in astonishing quantity, and produce the so-called lousy disease, Phthiriasis v. Plou- quet Repert. Art.

No. 375—381, from man, swine, turkey, dove, and crane. T.] (30) For instance, the common flea, Pulex irritans, and the chigoe, Pulex penetrans, which, in America, buries itself deeply in the human skin, and pro- duces very malignant and even fatal consequences; in beasts and birds other kinds, besides the common flea, occur. (31) Carnus hemapterus, on starlings. (82) The SuBGENERA are Ornithomyia on birds; Normomyia, especially on mammalia; Lipoptena upon stags and roes; Melophila, for instance, the sheep- tick, M. ovina. (33) On bats. (34) The Br. cocca on the honey-bee. (35) Not unfrequently in the throats of men, in the nostrils of horses, and on the naked parts of the heads of water-birds. (36) To wit, H. branchiata, H. piscium, and H. muricata, H. sturionis, H. hip- poglossi, &c. in the gills of crabs. [Lacretelle in Gazette de Santé, Feb. 1828. Death by suffocation in a soldier who had swallowed a leech in drinking water ; it was found in the right ventricle of the larynx. — Vanderbach in Journ. Univ.

(38) They appear to do this by a corroding juice, which dissolves the lime ; in consequence, the mollusca fill up the hole with a peculiar yellow indissoluble animal substance. (39) Under this head I understand the true intestinal worms, i.e. Ru- dolphi’s Entozoa nematoidea, or Cuvier’s Cavitaires, which, according to my opinion, are not to be separated from the Annelida.
