Abstract
THE respiratory movements of some of the larger insects are quite apparent, and have been described by various observers. A German naturalist, Herr Rathke, published in 1861 a memoir in which he compared those movements, observed with the naked eye and a magnifying glass, in insects of all the principal types.
