Before the forma- tion of plaques diagnosis is diffi- cult. The parasite may often be found by making a microscopical examination of scrapings of the urethra in males or the vulva in females (Baldrey). The parasites are present in the blood in small numbers. Ordinarily they are found only by inoculating a sus- ceptible animal. They are pres- ent in the exudate of the male urethra and of the vagina, in the fig. ig.

From the time of the appearance of the plaques there is a progressive anemia which seems to be more rapid from the time of the appearance of nervous symptoms. There is an increase in the number of leucocytes. Pease states that there is a large increase in the number of MAL DE CADERAS Trypanosoma equinum is similar in form and size to the other pathogenic trypanosomes, but is readily distinguished morpho- logically by the apparent absence of a centrosome, which is so inconspicuous that its existence has been denied by some. In Tr. equinum the centrosome measures about one-fourth to one- third [X. The number of trypanosomes in the peripheral blood varies a good deal in cases of natural infection. Sivori and Lecler state that in cases of progressive anemia they are nearly always found and are numerous, while in cases of parexia they are found from time to time in small numbers, and in cases of paraplegia they are.
