Excerpt from Insects Affecting Domestic Animals: An Account of the Species of Importance in North America; With Mention of Related Forms Occurring on Other Animals The relations which insects bear to the other branches of the animal kingdom are Of no little complexity, and the complete statement of these relations would require a lengthy discussion Of definitions. In the present work it is intended to discuss particularly those insects which by direct attack upon domesticated animals render them selves an injurious element to the stock breeder, poultry raiser, and keeper Of various animals for pleasure or profit. Naturally, reference must here and there be made to allied forms which may be Of interest as affecting some related animals or as possible parasites of domestic animals in the future. Insects may affect domestic animals in a number of different ways; first, by occasional attack for the purpose of Obtaining food; second, by occasional attacks which simply give irritation to the animal, as in the case of certain Species of "ies; third, by living as parasites during part of their existence, as in bots; fourth, by living as parasites throughout their lifetime, as with the lice; and, fifth, by living as mess mates or scavengers upon the bodies of the animals without deriving nutriment from them, as, probably, some Species Of bird lice. In general, the insects affecting animals are termed parasites, but evidently this term would not be appropriate for all the forms above mentioned. It is by no means easy to give a definition which shall be properly exclusive. We may say that a parasite is an animal which lives at the expense Of another, but this would not include many species which are com mouly considered as parasites and which, While dependent upon a host animal for existence, take nothing that is of value to the host. On the other hand, if we say the parasite is an animal dependent at some period Of its life upon another for existence, we must include many forms which have none Of the habits which we commonly associate with parasitism.
