 ientalis, Grassi. Quiescent below 25 C. ; most active 

 at from 38 to 40 C. It is found in the mucus cover- 

 ing the teeth of man. — 

 Amoeba coli, Losch. 

 Syn. Amaba dysenterice, 

 Councilman and Lafleur. 

 It is found in cases of 

 ulcerative inflammation of 

 "he large intestine. Ex- 

 periments prove this para- 

 site capable of causing 

 violent irritation of the 

 uucous membrane. Mo- 

 liez hazards the conclu- 

 sion that this species is 



dentical with Amabajela-

found in a dermatosis of lambs in Australia, attack- 

 ing the feet, lips, gums, and nostrils. Lendenfeld 

 could not differentiate this parasite morphologically 

 from Amoeba princeps, Ehrenberg. It is common in 

 fresh water. — Amceba vaginalis, Baelz. Recorded 

 from Japan as occurring in the human vagina. — Am- 

 phistoma collinsii, Cobbold. Brick-red worms found 

 in thousands in the large intestine of the horse in India, 

 where it is known to the natives as Masuri. It is 

 perhaps identical with Amphistoma sonsinoi, Cobbold. 

 Cobbold describes another Amphistoma collinsii, var. 

 stanleyi. — Amphistoma conicum, Rudolphi. Found 

 in the paunch and psalterium of the domestic sheep, 

 ox, goat, deer, and several wild ruminants. It is rose- 

 colored, irregular, length IO to 13 mm., breadth 2 to 

 3 mm. It fixes itself between the papilla? of the 

 rumen, especially at the border of the esophagus. It 

 is common in Egypt and Australia, and probably has for 

 its cercaria that found by Sonsino, in Cairo, on the 

 gasteropod Physa alexandrina , and forming cysts on 

 aquatic stones, plants, shells of molluscs, etc. — Am- 

 phistoma crumeniferum, Creplin. Found in the 

 rumen of domestic cattle of India, and the zebu (Bos 

 indicus). — Amphistoma explanatum, Creplin. 

 Found by Gurlt, at Berlin, in the gall-bladder and 

 biliary duct of a zebu (Bos indicus). — Amphistoma 

 hawksii, Cobbold. Found at times, and in myriads, 

 adhering to the mucous membrane of the large intes- 

 tine of the Indian elephant and causing the most fre- 

 quent disease of that animal, a diarrhea known in India 

 as Lungen : death results from exhaustion following 

 depraved appetite, anemia, and diarrhea. — Amphis- 

 toma hominis, Lewis and McConnell. Found in 

 the large intestine and cecum of man. — Amphis- 

 toma ornatum, Cobbold. Found in the intestine of 

 the Indian elephant. — Amphistoma papillatum, 

 Cobbold. Found in the large intestine of the Indian 

 elephant. — Amphistoma sonsinoi, Cobbold. Syn. , 

 Gastrodiscus polymastos, Leuckart, Cobbold. Possibly 

 Amphistoma collinsii is identical with this species. It 

 is found in the large intestine of the horse. — Am- 

 phistoma sp., Cobbold. Found in the stomach of 

 the horse. — Amphistoma truncatum, Rudolphi. 

 Found in the intestine of the domestic cat. — Am- 

 phistoma tuberculatum, Cobbold. The only trem- 

 atode found in the intestine of the domestic ox. It 

 is found in India associated with the amphistomes of 

 the rumen. — Analges minor, \5rner. See Dermo- 

 glyphus minor, Norner. — Anchylostoma caninum, 

 Ercolani. Found in the intestine of the dog. — An-
