A description of four Filaria loa from the same patient
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 06 April 2009
Extract
A comparison of the descriptions of the morphological characteristics of Filaria loa by previous authors shows differences which are explained by the study of our uninjured specimens. We have prepared a table (q.v.) which shows the results of the work of various observers together with our own. We believe that most of the drawings so far published are somewhat misleading; we have, therefore, drawn the essential parts as seen through the microscope with an entire diameter and a portion of a longitudinal section in focus. The drawings are not composite or schematic but have been made on a large scale with accuracy in the measurements so as to represent the different parts in proper proportion (see Plate).
