1 Hadwen, and Nuttall, (1913) Parasitology, VI. 299301, observed deaths in guinea-pigs to which larvae and nymphs of Dermacentor venustus were applied. Arãgao (1912, pp. 96et seq.) also noted fatal effects following the infestation of toads and snakes with Amblyomma agamum. In the absence of any parasites in the blood in any of these cases the deaths may, provisionally, be attributed to toxic secretions emanating from the ticks.Google Scholar
