COLEOPTERA. 



Hexapoda with biting mouth-parts. Anterior wings altered to form cases 

 for the thin posterior wings. 



Remarks. — The larvae of beetles have rarely been recorded as parasites of 

 the alimentary canal, or found in abscesses in man in the temperate and 

 tropical regions. Silvanus surinamensis Linnaeus bites people at night. 



ORTHOPTERA. 



The bite of Enyaliopsis durandi Lucet causes a nasty eruption 

 (according to Wiggins, 1910, in man in Uganda), with high fever 

 and general illness, and finally sloughing at the site of the bite. 



E, petersi Schaum, the nantundua of Nyassaland, according to 

 Stannius, can cause ulceration by the action of a yellow fluid which 

 it emits. 



Th.Q PhasmidcB , or stick insects, are said to eject a fluid which 

 may cause blindness if it gets on to the conjunctiva.
