The Animal Parasites of Man

Note 323 — ON PARASITES IN GENERAL. (continued 11)

Reading edition

R. Blanchard has compiled thirty-five cases in which Myriapoda have been observed in the intestine as well as in the nose of human beings (“Sur le pseudopar. d. myriap. chez l’homme,” Arch. de Par., 1898, i, p. 452). E. Munoz Ramos reports an additional case (ibid., p. 491). A few years ago a doctor in East Prussia sent me a rain worm out of a lady’s nose (cf. Hanau, A., “Wahrsch. Pseudo-paras. v. Schmeissfliegenlarv. u. angebl. Paras. v. Regenwürmern b. einer Hysterischen,” Arch. de Par., 1899, ii, p. 23).
