Description
Thanks Ross for his letter (Ross/69/02) which amplifies his articles in the British Medical Journal (Ross/68/06-09) and congratulates Ross on his work in Sierra Leone. Ross' and the Italian's observations would imply that the culicidae do not carry malaria but R Koch appears to think it a possibility.
