[Presence of terms for birds, aquatic animals and insects in medical language]. / La présence des volatiles, des animaux aquatiques et des insectes dans le langage médical.

After a first lecture, in April 2013, about the presence of mammals in medical language, the author gives another part of his panorama of animal metaphors used in medicine, focusing this time on the birds, aquatic animals and insects. The second part of this study confirms that animals, or at least the image of them in the past, were regularly present in medical nosology.
