Parasites: A Treatise on the Entozoa of Man and Animals: Including Some Account of the Ectozoa
Cobbold, T. Spencer (Thomas Spencer)
Helminths; Parasites
edit., by Lankester, 1857.--_Le Clerc, D._, ‘A Natural
and medicinal History of Worms bred in the bodies of men and other
animals’ (_sic_), Browne’s edit., London, 1721.--_Leuckart, R._, ‘Die
menschlichen Parasiten, und die von ihren herruhrenden Krankheiten,’
Leipsic und Heidelberg, 1863-1876.--_Redi, F._, ‘De animalculis vivis
quæ in corporibus animalium vivorum reperiuntur, observationes;’ Coste’s
edition, Amstelædami, 1688.--_Rudolphi, C. A._, ‘Entozoorum sive vermium
intestinalium historia naturalis,’ Amsterdam, 1808.--_Idem_, ‘Entozoorum
Synopsis,’ Berlin, 1819.--_Van Beneden, P. J._, ‘Animal Parasites and
Messmates,’ London, 1876.
Several of the above works, while professing to deal with human
parasites only, cover more or less of the whole ground of helminthology.
Leuckart’s work is invaluable in this respect; and in the matter of
literary references of a professional kind Davaine’s treatise is itself
well nigh exhaustive. In any ordinary volume it is not possible to
give a complete bibliography of parasitism. I make no pretension to
do so here; nevertheless, the large number of modern memoirs that I
have received from the distinguished writers themselves, enables me to
render this part of my book very useful. As second only in importance
to the above-mentioned works may be added the following--whether minor
treatises, memoirs, monographs, comprehensive articles, or reports of a
general or special character, respectively. As such it will be seen that
some of them are sufficiently comprehensive, and their mere enumeration
will enable the beginner to realise something like a fair estimate of
the scope of helminthology. In the case of my own works I have ventured
to add references to reviews and notices, because many of the latter
contain valuable original suggestions made by the various anonymous
writers.
