Стр. 245 - It is seen from the size of a pin's head to that of a pea, and is common in all the native huts in this country.
Стр. 250 - ... purging comes on, and the animal, no longer able to graze, perishes in a state of extreme exhaustion. Those which are in good condition often perish soon after the bite is inflicted with staggering and blindness, as if the brain were affected by it. Sudden changes of temperature produced by falls of rain, seem to hasten the progress of the complaint ; but in general the emaciation goes on uninterruptedly for months, and, do what we will, the poor animals perish miserably.
Стр. 250 - We watched the animals carefully and believe that not a score of flies were ever upon them. A most remarkable feature in the bite of the tsetse, is its perfect harmlessness in man and wild animals, and even calves so long as they continue to suck the cows. We never experienced the slightest injury from them ourselves, personally, although we lived two months in their habitat...
Стр. 251 - Is a man not as much a domestic animal as a dog ? The curious feature in the case, that dogs perish though fed on milk, whereas the calves escape so long as they continue sucking, made us imagine that the mischief might be produced by some plant in the locality, and not by tsetse ; but Major Vardon, of the Madras Army, settled that point by riding a horse up to a small hill infested by the insect without allowing him time to graze, and, though he only remained long enough to take a view of the country...
Стр. 250 - Zambesi can keep no domestic animals except the goat, in consequenee of the scourge existing in their country. Our children were frequently bitten, yet suffered no harm ; and we saw around us numbers of zebras, buffaloes, pigs, pallahs and other antelopes, feeding quietly in the very habitat of the tsetse...
Стр. 250 - The eyes and nose begin to run, the coat stares as if the animal were cold, a swelling appears under the jaw, and sometimes at the navel, and though the animal continues to graze, emaciation commences, accompanied with a peculiar flaccidity of the muscles...
Стр. 250 - The poison does not seem to be injected by a sting, or by ova placed beneath the skin, for, when one is allowed to feed freely on the hand, it is seen to insert the middle prong of three portions, into which the proboscis divides, somewhat deeply into the true skin ; it then draws it out a little way, and it assumes a crimson colour as the mandibles come into brisk operation. The previously shrunken belly swells out, and, if left undisturbed, the fly quietly departs when it is full. A slight itching...
Стр. 93 - Martiny gives the following notes upon it from Dobritzhofer. This animal is so small that it can only be seen by sharp eyes with a good light, for which reason the seeking for the flea after its immigration is generally left to children. It perforates the skin down to the flesh, and, concealed in its little canal, swells up into a white, globular vesicle, which in a few days may become as large as a pea, the pain constantly increasing ; this is the abdomen of the female filled with eggs, or, more...
Стр. 250 - These symptoms seem to indicate, what is probably the case, a poison in the blood ; the germ of which enters when the proboscis is inserted to draw blood. The poison-germ contained in a bulb at the root of the proboscis, seems capable, although very minute in quantity, of reproducing itself.
Стр. 94 - Alluding to the treatment of cases of this kind, KUcheumeister say s, "when the animal has once made an entrance, the orifice of the canal, which is marked by a red point, may be sought, the passage widened with a needle, and the flea drawn out, but without tearing it. With fresh punctures it is best to wait a day, until the occurrence of the white vesicle, that is to say, the swelling of the abdomen with the brood, allows the animal to be more readily detected. Here also I should think that touching...
