Perhaps this latter case belongs to the aleucemic leucemias or pseudoleucemias. These two conditions are recognized by the difference in circulating leucocytes, a piece of information not at our disposal. The whole subject of hemato-lymphatic affection must remain unsettled in so far as a diagnostic name is concerned, for in very few cases has the blood of our animals at autopsy been in a state permitting reliable observations upon stained smears, because of coagulation, lysis or decomposition. After considering a few more of the diseases of the blood and marrow, the lymphatic apparatus will be considered. But there is a borderland to which a word might be devoted at this time, that group to which various names—Hodgkin’s disease, pseudoleucemia, general adenopathy, adenie, aleucemic leucemia—have been applied and which has been accepted as occurring in the domesticated animals. Since I have been occupied for several years in a study of this clinicopathological complex in the human being, such cases have been searched for most diligently, but without success. The New York Zoological Park records a case of Hodgkin’s disease, without specifications, in 1901, and at the London Garden a pseudoleucemia was found. The paucity of leucemia and of the aleucemic adenopathies in lower animals and their relative frequency in man excite speculation as to their interdependence; but more of this under the lymphatics. AVIAN LEUCEMIA. The class Aves is rather better represented in the group of leucemias, but here the well known infectious disease may confuse the picture. The birds affected were Psittaci 3 (1 parrot, 1 parrakeet, and 1 amazon), Herodiones (stork) 1, and Galli (Gambel’s quail), 1. There was no close association of these cases either in time or housing. One of the parrots and the stork had a picture suggesting that given by Warthin for avian leucemia while the remainder presented greater evidence of a generalized infection, such as Moore described, associated with the finding of the B. sanguinarium; this organism was isolated once, but no secondary cases succeeded upon the death of this bird. It seems hardly profitable to quote protocols of this relatively unimportant condition, especially since it is fairly well known.
