Living Cochineal.

The Textile Colourist 2, 1876

Mr. W. Schönlank, of Berlin, has succeeded in bringing to that city a species of large cactus covered with living cochineal insects; this extreme rarity for that latitude may be inspected by visitors in the reptile house of the Zoological Gardens of Berlin, where it has apparently found suitable quarters.
