About the Book

Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos.

I can strongly recommend these simple little instruments, as they are very-light, and are little liable to injury. The other appliances for insect dissection are equally simple. As all delicate structures are dissected under fluid, a shallow glass dish is required. My own are simple flat round glass cells, about one inch in depth and four in diameter. For very large objects, a dish of corresponding length is of course required. This is plentifully filled with water or spirit?generally a mixture of the two? and the dissection is sunk to the bottom by being fastened to a flat cork attached to a strip of sheet lead.

Some persons prefer to make a very shallow dish of lead, and to pour melted wax into it, so as to fix the object upon the wax. I, however, prefer the cork, as the pins are apt to break away from the wax. The cork should be very fine-grained, as if the holes are large and deep, the pin is sure to plunge through the dissection, carrying with it the tip of the forceps, and thereby doing irremediable damage. Of course the whole affair must be set in a good light, or the dissection will be impracticable. Daylight is by far the best, for I always find that by artificial light the shadows are thrown so perplexingly that it is almost impossible to make out the real structure of a delicate object, and an important tissue may be broken under the impression that it is but a shadow. If, however, artificial light must be used, the accom...
