An account of the dissection of an oestridge sent to the Royal Society by Dr. Edward Brown, Fellow of the said Society, and of the Colledge of Physicians.

The oestridge is esteemed the largest and tallest of winged or feathered Fowl, as being sometimes eight foot high, which bulk if we compare with the Tominejo or Humbird weighing about twelve Grains, we may readily discern within what compass and latitude the Creation of birds was obtained.
