“…We will criticise Schaudinn's observations in this connection further on. Prowazek's (1905) work on the development of T. lewisi in Haematopinus spinulosus is next described and the migrations of the so-called developmental forms of T. lewisi in the louse are said to agree in the main with Schaudinn's observations. Mammalian trypanosomes however have so far only been found in the alimentary tracts of tsetse flies; but Koch believes that the flagellates he found in the salivary glands of certain Glossinae are identical with T. gambiense.…”

A large number of the trypanosomes and allied flagellates are now known to be the causal agents of some of the most fatal diseases of man and of the lower animals. The study of these parasites during the past fifteen years has truly made phenomenal strides, and at the present time it holds a position of commanding interest. Novy (1907) in a recent paper aptly states the reason for this active research when he says, “It is not merely because six or seven of these diseases have been recognised in domestic animals in Asia, Africa and South America. It is not wholly due to the discovery of a human form of the disease, but rather to the fact that the mastery by man of whole regions is called into question. The successful contest with malaria and yellow fever has now given place to the fight with trypanosomiasis and upon the issue of this struggle depends to a large extent the destiny of Equatorial Africa.”

“…Virus Infections. That insects are susceptible to infectious agents known as viruses was not clearly demonstrated until the second decade of the twentieth century (von Prowazek, 1907Prowazek, , 1912Escherich and Miyajima, 1911;Glaser and Chapman, 1913;Acqua, 1919). While the most rapid and impressive advances in our knowledge of the virus diseases of insects have come during the past forty years, significant observations were made before this.…”

disease increasingly came to be included in writings on the techniques of sericulture.' In 1830, Count Dandolo declared, in a chapter on disease in a book on the rearing of the silkworm, that "hundreds of works" had been written on the diseases of this insect. Mention of the subject also occurred in general works that included discussions of the silkworm, such as a book written on butterflies in 1679 by Maria Sibylla Merian. Published works on sericulture became more and more scientific in character and the need for a more factual comprehension of the diseases involved became clear. It is noteworthy that as the concept of scientific method developed and biological science began to emerge into the realm of experimental science, among the first problems to gain the attention of biological investigators were those pertaining to the diseases of the silkworm, The significance of these studies from the standpoint of their influence on the understanding of human disease and such concepts as spontaneous generation is great. One of the earliest of what might be called a scientific consideration of the diseases of the silkworm appeared in 1808. This was a treatise, "Recherches sur les Maladies des Vers it Soie," by P. H. Nysten who became an oft-quoted authority on the subject during the years to follow. Among other early writers whose works included discussion of
