These papers chiefly relate to the development of the embryos 
of various species of Ascaris during a more or less prolonged 
imtnersion of the ova in water. Ciliated embryos were also 
obtained in Fasciola lieimtica, and likewise sexually mature 
tapeworms [Tania serrata)^ from the pea-shaped bladderworms 
[Cysticercus iiisif or mis) of rabbits.

The first of these papers gives the result of very careful ob- 
servations on the development from the ovum of F, miliarius, 
and describes its nervous, muscular, and reproductive systems. 
The latter treats more particularly of the female generative 
organs, especially of the appendage to the uterus called Uterus- 
glocke, and gives some further details of the development of 
the ova.

The author inclines to the belief that this worm is introduced 
into the human subject through the alimentary system. This 
opinion is also held by the natives of the west coast of Africa 
and by those of Egypt, Arabia, and Persia.
