The an but the infested chicken size, had only acquired a weight of ounces, in consequence of the deteriorating influences of an impeded respiration Several other equally striking evidences of an imperfect nutrition were observable among these were the extremely rudimental condition of the wattles, the small body as contrasted with the relatively much more highly developed extremities, and the very scanty growth of the feathers, which on several parts of the body were entirely wanting the healthy birds being well fledged throughout The strange habits of the chicken were also in keeping with its physiIt held itself entirely aloof from the other memcal peculiarities bers of the brood, and, as if to make up for its defective assimilating powers, tried to add to its substance by greedily devouring every thing which came in its way, thus consuming fully two or three times as much as any other member of the brood The only interruption to its constant eating during the day arose from the act of gaping, which took place at irregular intervals, sometimes The extension of the neck, and as often as once every minute : ;

dissecting forceps, I ; thread, the bird was permitted to wake out of its artificial sleep ; had parted with a drop or two of blood, it soon recovered its legs, and ran about the table as vigorously as ever Moreover, as if this were not enough to satisfy me as to its almost instantaneous cure, in a very few minutes afterwards it demolished the contents of a saucer partly filled with bread previously steeped in milk An occasional gape was caused by an accumulation of frothy mucus within the injured trachea but this obstruction the bird soon got rid of, by a few shakes of and, notwithstanding that it The only subsequent incon- the head attended with sneezing venience to the bird arose from emphysematous distention of the cellular tissue of the This was on two or three head and neck occasions relieved by a slight puncture of the extremely thin in- tegument, the emphysema ceasing to form after the external wound had healed Unwilling to lose sight of this chicken, I took it with me where it was well fed and rapidly attained the an ordinary full-grown pullet A few days ago it was returned to me alive, having attained the weight of lbs 8|- ozs into Norfolk, size of I have since caused it to be killed ; and on dissecting the neck, although there was no scar externally, a distinct cicatrix indicates the site of the operation on the trachea, rings, six in —the divided cartilaginous number, being united only by a thin layer of con- nective tissue Reverting now to the Entozoa extracted from the trachea, I observe, in the first place, that the females have an average length of fths of an inch, the males scarcely exceeding -g-th of an inch In both sexes the bodies are tolerably uniform in breadtli throughout and that of the female measures ^th, whilst the transverse diameter of the male is only from y\)-th to 57, th of an inch The heads In the fresh state the are relatively even more disproportionate mouth of the female was seen to be furnished with six prominent chitinous lips; but the conspicuousuess of the latter became much lessened after the specimens had been placed in spirit (fig 2) In both sexes the surface of the body is quite smooth but the female displays a series of spirally arranged lines, which at first sight convey the idea of a natural twisting of the body this ;

; gamus trachealis there is ultimately a lasting continuity of the sexes by means of an actual growing together." Having entire confidence in Von Siebold's statement, I am bound to conclude that the sexual union in been effected ; my specimens had only recently but, admitting this to have been the case, one naturally asks in what * manner can the mature eggs make Wiegmann's Archiv, 1836, p 106 their 310 DR T S COBBOLD OK SCLEEOSTOMA STNGAMUS escape, seeing that the vagina organ and bursa of the male ? is blocked up by the intromittent Clearly the eggs can only escape by an eventual breaking up of the body of the parent this result, however, is quite admissible, as it constantly happens in the cestode proglottides, where the vaginal orifice is too small to allow ;

distinctly perceived an undulating canal, probably constituting the as yet imperfectly formed intestinal tube By young make manifest that prior to their exit from the shell, it is whatever mode the their exptdsion, they are sufficiently developed to undertake an active migration Their next habitation may occur within the body of certain insect larvae or even small land mollusks but I think it more likely that they either enter the substance of vegetable matters or bury themselves in the soil at a short distance ; from the surface Finally, I propose very briefly to notice the various methods which may be adopted with the view, on the one hand, of checking the destructive influences of this parasite, and, on the other, of limiting its abundance First When the worm has taken up its abode in the trachea of fowls and other domesticated birds, the simplest plan consists, as Dr Wiesenthal long ago pointed out, in stripping a feather from the tube to near the narrow end of the shaft, leaving only a few uninjured webs at the tip The bird being secured, the webbed extremity of the feather is introduced into the windpipe It is then twisted round a few times and withdrawn, when it will usually happen that several of the worms are found attached In some instances this plan entirely succeeds ; but it is not altogether satisfactory, as it occasionally fails to dislodge aU the occupants Secondly The above method is rendered more effectual when — DR tlie feather T S is COBBOLD ON SCLEROSTOMA SINGAMUS previously steeped iu some medicated solution which Mr worms will destroy the Bartlett, Superintendent of the Zoological Society's Gardens, employs for this purpose weak infusion of tobacco ;

One of his but he teUs us that " change of food and change of place, together with the infusion of rue and water to drink, and chiefly hempseed, independent of the green vegetables which the grass plot of the menagery afforded, recovered the others in a very short time." garlic instead of plain Fourthly This method The plan I have here adopted by way of experiment is evidently only necessary when the disease has so advanced that immediate suffocation becomes inevitable or it may be resorted to when other methods have failed In the most far ; far-gone eases instant relief will follow this operation, since the may with certainty be cleared of all obstructions Perhaps the most essential thing to be observed, in view of putting a check upon tlie future prevalence of the disease, is the total destruction of the parasites after their removal trachea Lastly a precaution, however, which cannot be adopted if Mr MonIf the worms be merely tagu's mode of treatment is followed and thrown away (say, upon the ground), it is scarcely mature eggs will have sustained any injury Decomposition having set in, the young embryos will sooner or later escape from their shells, migrate in the soil or elsewhere, and killed likely that the ultimately find their way into the air-passages of certain birds in the same manner as their parents did before them INDEX Achatiua, Achatina Lam folliculus, ruricola, Gron Lowe Adi-ama, TFal/c consors, Tfalk selecta, Walk Page 196 203 203 296 296 296 Alphceus Eclwardsii on the coast of Cornwall, Jonathan Couch on the discovery of 210 Amphibia 224, 226 Amphiptyches, Grube &f Wag 56 54 54 51, 56 54, Urna, G &^ W I'ugosa, Cohb Aniphistoma, Rud asperuni, Dies attenuatiun Dies coniciun, 51 54 Rud Conus, Crepl (sp.) crumenifermn, Crepl cylindi'icum, Dies eiuarginatum Dies explanatum, Crepl fabaceura, Dies Ferrum-equiiiuni, Dies giganteum Dies grande Dies Hu'udo, Dies lunatum, Dies Megacotyle, Dies IS^attereri, Cohb oxycephaluni Dies pyrifornie Dies Rud subtriquetrvini, uncifonne, Angitula, Walk longicoUis, scleroporuin, Crepl subclavatum, Rud Rud 51 52 51 54 52 51 52 53 52 52 52 52 53 53 54 51 52 53 52 52 297 297 Walk Ant, account of habits of a spe217 cies of Australian Anthomyidcs, Walk 216, 261 Anthrax, Fab 237, 282, 301 —— • Dolm 283 283 Walk Pelops, Walk 282, 237, 301, 302 aterriuia, confii-mata, LINN PBOC — zooLoar Page 283 283, 301 266 Tantalus, Fabr Ai'chegosaurus 221 AsihdsB, Leach, 233, 259, 263, 277, 302 Asilites, Walk 236, 259, 264, 280 AsUus, Linn 236, 260, 265, 281 areolatus 260 complens, Walk 281 determuiatus 265 involutus, Walk 281 lEEvis, Walk 237 mendax Walk 260 Ascmides, Haliday 299 Baccha, Fabr 239, 285 basahs, Walk 239 incisa Walk 285 tripartita, Walk 285 Batracliia 224 Billiarzia, Cobb 30, 55 ha;uiatobia, Cobb 31 31 magna, Cobb Bombyhd£e, Leach, 237, 260, 266, 282, Anthrax prsetendcns, Walk semiscita Walk 301, 302 BombyUtes, Walk 282 Borborides, Haliday 246, 291 Bradley, C J., Note on the occur rence of Gyrodactylus ancho- Nordm 257 on the occurrence of Gyrodactylus elegants on Sticklebacks in the Ilampstead Ponds 209 ratus, Buccmmn vittatiun, Linn Bidimus, Sco}) acutus, Miill decollatus, L (sp.)
