TSETSE IN" EHODESIA. 211 



found by the late Captain Haslam in specimens of 

 Stomoxys on the line of the Uganda Railway, it is quite 

 possible that the animals that Mr. Jackson considers to 

 have been worried to death by Stomoxys at Taveta really 

 perished from Nagana. In this connection it is worthy 

 of note that Dr. J. W. Gregory attributed the death of his 

 camels at Ngatana to the bites of a Stomoxys. 



The above article is illustrated by a small sketch-map 

 of alternative routes from the coast to Uganda, showing 

 "Tsetse-fly country" near Kibwezi, and also by a rough 

 wood-cut (three times natural size) of a Tsetse-fly.]

Tsetse-fly during the wet season infests some 60 miles 

 of road up country near the Tsavo; it is believed that 

 donkeys withstand the attacks of the fly better than other 

 animals (p. 93). 



Tsetse-fly common on the Sabaki River route (which 

 follows the river) between Mombasa and Tsavo ; on the 

 Taru desert route the fly does not appear till the valley of 

 the Tsavo is reached (p. 111).

 the immediate vicinity of Zumbo [a town on the northern
