94 Mr. Clakk’s Appendix to a Treatise on the CEstri and Cuterebree. 
ascertained on my return to England, from a miserable relic in the Linnean 
cabinet, to have been identical with T. reticulata , L., which I pointed out to 
Dr. Smith, who informed other naturalists. The second was Dr. Leach’s 
(E. Clarkii, which I have shown in the present memoir to have been no other 
than the Linnean (E . nasalis, so called by mistake, the GE. veterinus of my 
enumeration. The present I believe to be a real novelty. 
ERRATA ET ADDENDA. 
Page 82, 1. 4,—read, or to the. Cuterebree. 
1. 20,—read. The following is the passage of Avienus, as quoted in Bochart’s 
Geographia Sacra , p. 728,— 
In quo insulae sese exerunt (Estrymnides, 
Late jacentes et metallo divites, 
Stanni atque plumbi, &c. 
Also the following:— 
Tartesiisque interjninos CEstrymnidum, 
Negotiandi naos erat. 
Avieni, Ora Maritima ; Tom. 5, p. 1181-5, ed. Helmstead 1792. 
The above passage has undoubted reference to the British Isles ; and the Poet Avienus 
is supposed by his German commentators to have lived in the fourth century of 
our era. It will perhaps be reflected, however, that Julius Cmsar gave a 
tolerable account of these islands and of their treasures within the first centurv, 
calling them Britannia ; nevertheless this Carthaginian manuscript so referred 
to by Avienus, might have been four or five hundred years old, and written 
before Caesar's time, in the early period of the Greeks and Phcenecians forming 
that colony. 
Though but little versed in Greek, we are led to conjecture that the above epithet 
(Estrymnides to be compounded of Oistros, memos , oides. Memos , signifying 
excitement, rage, or infuriation. The oides, being exchanged by elision to ides, 
as in Hesperides, and many others. 
Page 86, 1. 19,—dele among the Laplanders , also dele “ nose and fauces,” r. intestines, as 
in his original edition, 1 794, Tom. 4, p. 210. 
Page 91, 1. 5 ,—Pallas has however given a figure of this supposed human Oestruss, but 
what does it prove to be, neither more nor less than the Oestrus Equi of my 
enumeration. The wings are similarly marked, but not so strongly, as in our 
more Southern individuals ; and this I also observed was the case in a considerable 
number of Danish Oestri Equini, procured from a herd of horses of this country, 
imported here about ten years since.
