742 SALMONELLA 



Salm. worthlngton A.F. I, XIII, XXIII, 1, w <-^ z . . . 



Isolated from a young turkey and a chick in Minnesota (Edwards and Bnmer 1938). 

 Found also in the United States in human feces (Bomstein and Saphra 1942, Borman 

 et al. 1943) and in the mesenteric lymph nodes of normal pigs (Rubin et al. 1942). Isolated 

 from imported American spray-dried egg in Great Britain. The z antigen is not quite 

 identical with that of poona. 



Salm. Wichita A.F. I, XIII, XXIII, d . . . — . 



Isolated from the faeces of infants in Kansas who were suffering from neonatal diarrhoea 

 (McKinlay 1937), and studied by Schiff and Strauss (1939a). 



Salm. habana A.F. I, XIII, XXIII, f, g . . . — . 



Isolated from cerebrospinal fluid, blood and faeces during the course of a hospital 

 outbreak of purulent meningitis among new-born babies in Havana ; all the infants 

 admitted to hospital, 21 in number, died (Schiff and Saphra 1941 ). Since found in imported 

 American spray-dried egg. Like all Salmonella strains containing the g antigen, it is 

 monophasic. The flagellar antigen is not quite identical with that of derby ; there appears 

 to be an extra minor antigen in both organisms. 



Salm. mississlppi A.F. I, XIII, XXIII, b ^-> 1, 5 . . . 



Isolated from the faeces of a normal human carrier (Edwards and Bruner 1943). 



Salm. heves A.F. (I), VI, XIV, XXIV . . . d <-^ 1, 6 . . . 



Described by Rauss (1943). 



Salm. carrau A.F. VI, XIV, XXIV, y ^-^ 1, 7 . . . 



Isolated from the mesenteric lymph node of a normal pig in Uruguay (Hormaeche, 

 Peluflfo and Salsamendi 1938). Also found in infantile diarrhoea (Hormaeche, Peluffo 

 and Aleppo 1940). It is probable that the XIV antigen of onderstepoort (see below) 

 consists of two fractions, one of which is specific and the other common to carrau. Hor- 

 maeche, Peluffo and de Pereyra (1944) find that Salmonella strains having factor 7 in 

 Phase 2 must be divided into two sub-groups ; sub-group i possesses a factor that is lacking 

 in sub-group ii. Sub-group i contains arechavaleta, altendorf, forida, gaminara, kaapstad 

 and pomona. Sub-group ii contains bredeney, carrau, grumpensis, selandia, give, new-bruns- 

 wick, nyborg and madelia. 



Salm. onderstepoort A.F. (I), VI, XIV, XXV, e, (h) ^-^ 1, 5 . . . 



Isolated from 2 sheep in South Africa. Described by Henning (1936). (For the con- 

 stitution of the XrV antigen, see Salm. carrau.) Is pathogenic to mice inoculated intra- 

 peritoneally. 



Salm. florida A.F. (I), VI, XIV, XXV, d <-^ 1, 7 . . . 



Isolated from faeces of a patient suffering from febrile diarrhoea. Described by Cherry, 

 Edwards and Bnmer (1943). The d antigen is not quite identical with that of Salm. 

 typhi, Salm. oregon or Salm. muenchen. 



Salm. madelia A.F. (I), VI, XIV, XXV, y <-^ 1, 7 . . . 



Isolated from the liver of a poult. Described by Cherry, Edwards and Bruner (1943). 

 The y antigen is identical with that of Salm. bareilly. 



Salm. sundsvall A.F. (I), VI, XIV, XXV . . . z <-^ e, n, x, z^^ . . . 



Isolated in Scandinavia. Responsible in England for an outbreak of gastro-enteritis. 

 Also found in imported American spray-dried egg. 



Salm. horsham A.F. (I), VI, XIV, XXV . . . 1, v <~> e, n, x . . . 



Isolated in England from imported spray-dried egg powder. Studied by Taylor 

 (unpublished). 



Salm. hvittingfoss A.F. XVI, b < — > e, n, x . . . 



Isolated in Norway from the faeces of patients who were siififering from acute gastro- 

 enteritis following the consumption of soft cheese, and from the cheese itself; one patient 

 had a typhoid-like disease that lasted for a week (Tesdal 1936, 1938). Also foimd in
