Pellicle thinner, only on malt and some sugar solutions; on potato, colony white oi' 

 yellowish. 

 Milk not coagulated, gelatin slowly liquefied. 

 Sucrose inverted; from respiratory tract. 



Nitrate not assimilated. C. nasalis. 



Nitrate assimilated. C. rotundatus.

On potato, colony grayish; milk coagulated. C. conglohatus. 



On potato, colony yellowish; milk not coagulated. C. Kleini. 



No trace of pellicle or ring. 



No capsule; cells ovoid or sjilierical, 3-5 x 2.8-4. ;V; from respiratory tract. 



(-. Guillierrrwndi. 

 Capsule well developed; cells spherical, o-7/x (in pus up to :>(V) ; eventually attacking 



the brain. C. psicrofilicus.

Torulopsis Neveuxii Almeida, Annaes Fac. Med. Sao Paulo 9: 10, 1933. 



Isolated from a case resembling tuberculosis, which yielded quickly to 

 medication with KI; Grand Bassani, Ivory Coast. 



On potato, colony white, moist, then showing dull islets which spread, 

 giving colony a chalky appearance, margins sometimes festooned. No asci on 

 carrot. On glucose agar, colony as on potato except it is finally folded. On 

 artichoke, colony thick, granular, green. In glucose peptone, pellicle thick, 

 folded, white, climbing up the tube for 4-5 mm., sediment white and liquid 

 clear. No fermentation. Acid production with glucose, fructose, maltose, 

 galactose, lactose, and xylose.

Isolated from the surface and juice of a peach but found pathogenic for 

 laboratory animals upon inoculation. [Weis gives additional information 

 based upon subculture received from Sanfelice.] Lodder (1934) referred 

 here a culture received from Voss as C. liominis. 



In young cultures cells spherical, 4-18ja, capsule very delicate with occa- 

 sional vacuoles and numerous oil drops. In older cultures, cells spherical or
