81. A specimen 60 mm. long was taken from beneath the con- 

 junctiva of a man who had Hved in Kamerun from 1897 to 1898 

 and since then in Germany. There was no intimation of the 

 parasite until the day before removal. The case is recorded by 

 Pick, 1905. 



82. Dr. Hans Ziemann records (1905) that he had in his 

 earlier service one case of F. loa. The host was presumably a 

 native and the locality probably the same as that given for the 

 following record. 



83-86. The same author records the occurrence of four cases 

 in his later service. Apparently he was stationed at Duala, 

 Kamerun. • 



NEW CASES 



87. Mr. K. observed that on one occasion when a Calabar 

 swelling upon the back of a woman's hand was rubbed, such a 

 worm was seen to emerge from the tumefaction and make its 

 way across the metacarpo-phalangeal articulation, from which 

 location it was extracted. These data are recorded by Milroy 

 in the present paper (p. 47). 



88. In 1890 Dr. B. C. Loveland removed a Loa from the skin 

 above the lower angle of the left scapula of Mrs. R., formerly a 

 missionary near Batanga, West Africa. Recorded in the present 

 paper (p. 3). 



89. In 1898 Dr. Loveland extracted a Loa from the eye of 

 Mrs. J., also a returned missionary from Batanga, West Africa. 

 The specimen I have described in tins paper (p. 26), and the 

 case is recorded here also (p. 3). 



90-92. On the evidence of Mrs. J., her husband and children 

 have all had the same parasite. The fact is recorded by Dr. 

 Loveland in this paper (p. 3). 



93. Dr. C. F. Friend removed a Loa from the eye of Mrs. X., 

 formerly a missionary in West Africa, about four years after her 

 return to America. This specimen is described in this paper 

 (p. 26) and the data on the case are also recorded herein (p. 4). 



94. The case of Dr. D. T. Vail of Cincinnati, O., briefly re- 

 ferred to in the preceding pages (p. 8) and reported at length
