First sentence: THE most extensive associated flora and fauna which I have discovered within animals exists with wonderful uniformity within the intestinal canal of the Myriapod, Julus marginatus, Say, and of the Coleopterous insect, Passalus cornutus, Fabricius; and in order that the position of the parasites in relation to the different portions of the intestines may be clearly understood, I have considered it proper to give a short anatomical description of the latter.
