Abstract
IN the new edition of this well-known and excellent manual amoeba from the soil are recommended for study as a substitute for the larger species Amoeba proteus, when this is not available, and two types not hitherto included-the large trypanosome of the dogfish and a tapeworm-are described. Careful directions are given for preparing a culture of the soil amoebae and for obtaining trypano-somes by centrifuging the blood of the dogfish, the trypanosomes present being carried down with the blood corpuscles to the bottom of the tube, whence they can be withdrawn with a pipette for examination in a drop of the plasma.
