Taking the size of his body into account, 40 IV, 1 | its surface, and of large size; the fluid substance within 41 IV, 1 | and in colour white; the size of the egg is so great as 42 IV, 1 | and near the shore the size is larger than in deep water; 43 IV, 2 | varieties are smaller in size and destitute of special 44 IV, 2 | with both claws of the same size.~All crustaceans take in 45 IV, 3 | differs from the female in size and breadth, and in respect 46 IV, 4 | especially; for it is in size that these latter differ 47 IV, 4 | same place, nor of equal size, nor similarly open to observation; 48 IV, 5 | mother-urchins", the largest in size of all the species.

(Be it observed that the 57 v, 10 | rapidly attains a great size. The pelamys and the tunny 58 v, 11 | not only in regard to the size and vigour of the creature, 59 v, 13 | ring-dove; and the next in size is the oenas or stock-dove; 60 v, 14 | voice, by an increase in size and an alteration in appearance 61 v, 14 | as also in an increase of size and alteration in appearance 62 v, 14 | uniparous. And the embryo is the size of a calf two or three months 63 v, 15 | is reddish and small in size; some of the large ones 64 v, 15 | found, very diminutive in size; they are most numerous 65 v, 15 | never appear to grow in size. Fishermen declare that 66 v, 17 | off are the smallest. The size of the small eggs is that 67 v, 17 | these seasons increase in size and become receptive of 68 v, 18 | These eggs increase in size; and they are white at the 69 v, 18 | substance grows less and less in size, and at length, as happens 70 v, 19 | it has reached its full size, when it breaks the formation 71 v, 20 | ichneumons" (or hunters), less in size, by the way, than the ordinary 72 v, 21 | the ruler is double the size of the working bee. These 73 v, 22 | And this proportionate size of the drone explains why 74 v, 27 | when they grow to full size, very often envelop the 75 v, 30 | two kinds; one, small in size, the first to come and the 76 v, 30 | grub, on attaining full size in the ground, becomes a 77 v, 31 | scorpion, and is about the size of a spider. In the seas 78 v, 33 | original egg and the huge size of the full-grown animal. 79 v, 33 | answering to the egg in size, but the full-grown animal 80 VI, 2 | At first it is little in size and white in colour; by 81 VI, 2 | appearance and of the same size as ordinary eggs. Such phenomena 82 VI, 2 | the male the increase in size proceeds with rapidity.~ 83 VI, 2 | to time according to the size of the parent-birds. The 84 VI, 3 | degrees that they diminish in size and collapse. At the outset 85 VI, 3 | diminishing gradually in size, at length becomes entirely 86 VI, 4 | the fact from the minute size of the creature.~The pigeon, 87 VI, 7 | mottled. And, by the way, in size and flight it resembles 88 VI, 10 | they grow it diminishes in size; at length it gets small 89 VI, 10 | in its young owing to the size of the head and the prickles; 90 VI, 12 | dolphin as being less in size and broader in the back; 91 VI, 13 | indistinguishable, from its diminutive size and thin contexture. The 92 VI, 15 | normal pairing, about the size of a small sprat, and not 93 VI, 17 | young by reason of their size have a better chance of 94 VI, 17 | many in number as large in size. The young fish cluster 95 VI, 17 | growing to a considerable size in a few days; these fish 96 VI, 18 | animals in proportion to size. With kine and mares menstruation 97 VI, 18 | mothers grow in age and size. It is said that a sow, 98 VI, 20 | have been inferred from the size of her frame.) The bitch 99 VI, 23 | his own kind. In regard to size, looks, and vigour, the 100 VI, 28 | castrated grow to the largest size and become fiercest: to 101 VI, 30 | smallest in proportion to the size of the mother; that is to 102 VII, 1 | private parts, altering in size and shape. (And by the way, 103 VII, 1 | as a general rule their size depends on whether or not 104 VII, 2 | for in proportion to his size man emits more seminal fluid 105 VII, 3 | other animals are of great size. But the female embryo, 106 VII, 8 | more and more to dwindle in size. And also as the embryo 107 VII, 10 | copious in comparison with the size of the child; it is what 108 VIII, 3 | hawks differ greatly in size from one another-and the 109 VIII, 3 | The buzzard is of the same size as the kite, and is visible 110 VIII, 3 | owl is of about the same size as the eleus, and both these 111 VIII, 3 | finch-titmouse—for it is about the size of a finch; the second has 112 VIII, 3 | appearance, but is less in size than either of them. Then 113 VIII, 3 | anthus, a bird about the size of a finch; and the mountain-finch, 114 VIII, 3 | and is of much the same size, but its neck is blue, and 115 VIII, 3 | greenpie, a bird about the size of a turtle-dove, green-coloured 116 VIII, 3 | largest, being about the size of the common thrush; all 117 VIII, 3 | cormorant. This bird is the size of a stork, only that its 118 VIII, 6 | rapidly in proportion to its size than any other animal; in 119 VIII, 7 | Cattle grow all the more in size when they are kept from 120 VIII, 7 | with a view to growth in size that in Epirus the so-called 121 VIII, 13| fishes have attained some size, the parent fish swim out 122 VIII, 13| Byzantium very small in size, as might have been expected 123 VIII, 19| shape, and is about the size of the spider. So acute 124 VIII, 20| weather they decrease in size and degenerate in quality; 125 VIII, 24| grape-beetle, which is about the size of the sphondyle or knuckle-beetle. 126 VIII, 28| torpid are all of immense size there. In the Euxine there 127 VIII, 28| of pretty much the same size, as the crow and the goat. 128 VIII, 28| they be nearly of the same size and have periods of gestation 129 VIII, 29| as plentiful and of large size, the sting is fatal to man 130 VIII, 30| fish may be told by the size and the hardness of its 131 IX, 1 | superior to the others in size, and in the courage with 132 IX, 1 | females, however, are less in size and much inferior in point 133 IX, 5 | when they reach their full size the animal basks in the 134 IX, 7 | adapting all to suit its own size. Both parents co-operate 135 IX, 7 | their claws increase in size, and pigeon-fanciers cut 136 IX, 12 | in colour, and about the size of the hawk called the " 137 IX, 14 | sponge, though they vary in size; they are roofed over, and 138 IX, 16 | a marsh; it is small in size, with a pleasant note. The 139 IX, 19 | quite white, about the same size as the other, and with the 140 IX, 20 | and resin; it is about the size of the jay. A second is 141 IX, 20 | sharp pipe, and is about the size of the owsel. There is another 142 IX, 22 | rising of Arcturus; it is the size of the turtle-dove. The 143 IX, 23 | all over, and about the size of the birds last described; 144 IX, 23 | the owsel; is of the same size as the above mentioned birds; 145 IX, 26 | gardens. It is about the size of a barn-door hen; it has 146 IX, 26 | speckled; it is of the same size as the owsel.~ 147 IX, 29 | cuckoo from its superior size snaps up the food brought 148 IX, 32 | ranks second in point of size and strength; it lives in 149 IX, 39 | the web: from its large size it cannot easily conceal 150 IX, 41 | proportion to its own larger size.
