Description
Thanks Charles for his information on the progress of the Italians work and he is delighted to hear of their successes. He has discovered that the malaria parasites develop slowly in a mosquito's stomach if the temperature is below 70 oF and encloses some specimens of germinal rods but explains that he is having trouble with the best method. He is sending specimens of mosquitoes and that he feels that Grassi is approaching malaria from the wrong angle.
