A new Schizogregarine, Caulleryella pipientis, is recorded from the 



gut of the larvae of Culex pipiens, and a detailed account is given 



of its various stages.

The three stages of the larvae of Hypoderma diana taken on deer 

 in Germany are described and compared with those of H. actaeon, 

 H. bovis and Gastrophilus intestinalis {Gastrus equi). 



During 1920 larvae of a species of Gastrophilus were taken from 

 the stomach of a horse ; these may prove to be G. lativentris, recorded 

 by Brauer from Courland.

In French West Africa the rearing of cattle, which is one of the 

 most important industries of the country, is closely correlated with 

 the occurrence of Glossina spp., the vectors of trypanosomiasis. A 

 general account of the species found in the country is given, with a 

 study of their distribution and a discussion of the influence of climate 

 and vegetation on their incidence [R.A.E., B, x, 117]. The most 

 noticeable feature of their distribution is the limitation of their 

 occurrence to humid situations. The excessively dry winds, blowing 

 from the Sahara, are felt in the forest belts to the north in the dry 

 'season, causing migrations of Glossina and rendering the region more 

 or less safe for herds, whilst further south, where the desert winds 

 are not felt, the keeping of domestic animals is seriously affected.
