At first the red corpuscles will be seen as pale, disk-like bodies floating in the clear fluid.

It appears to take some part in the formation of blood corpuscles.
These colorless corpuscles increase when there is disease of the lymphatic glands, but whether this is the cause of their increase or perversion is not known.
These species occur inside the corpuscles grouped in large numbers in pairs of piriform parasites connected at their pointed extremities.
Two free parasites which would presumably have entered a fresh corpuscle either singly or together.
It was noted several times in observing the microscopic field that the first corpuscles whose contained parasites escaped were those that harboured four young parasites.
