338 MEDICAL MYCOLOGY 



Saccharomyces Breweri Neveu-Lemaire, Precis Parasitol. 97, 1921. 

 Torulopsis Breweri Almeida, Annaes. Fae. Med. Sao Paulo 9: 10, 1933. 

 Cryptococcus Copelli Neveu-Lemaire, 1921, referred here as synonym by 

 Vuillemin, Champ. Paras. 96, 1931. 



Isolated from two tumors on spine involving spinal processes, on Russian 

 who had been in America for six months. Tumors removed and recovery 

 complete. Inoculation into guinea pigs reproduced the human lesions. 



Reproduction by sprouting only, with some chains. 



Growth slow, small grayish punctate colonies after 48 hours on glycerol 

 agar. On agar slants, heaped up, yellowish, creamy growths formed. On 

 potato, growth heavy and white. Organism grows on litmus milk but causes 

 no change. Gelatin not liquefied, perhaps because of slow growth. 



Cryptococcus Costantini Froilano de Mello & Gonzaga Fernandes, Arq. 

 Hig. Pat. Exot. 6: 294, 297, 1918. 



Cryptococcus Jiominis var. Costantini Vuillemin. 



Saccharomyces hominis Costantin, Bull. Soc. Myc. France 17: 145-148, 1901. 



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



Organism isolated from a tumor. 



Does not become brown on potato. Membranes not thickening on ordi- 

 nary media. 



Cryptococcus Cooperi Dodge n. nom. 



Cryptococcus quasi linguae pilosae Cooi)er, Am. Jour. Trop. Meil. 12: 97- 

 100, 1932. 



Isolated from a single case of lingua nigra out of 102 studied. Patho- 

 genicity not reported. 



Cells ovoid, 2-9/x, long, producing only one sprout at a time. 



Cultural characters not given. Acid produced with glucose, maltose, 

 fructose, and galactose, also litmus milk. No fermentation. Pellicles pro- 

 duced in liquid media. 



Since the name as published hy Cooper is a polynomial, it is invalid. To 

 shorten it to linguae-pilosae is impossible as that name already exists for an- 

 other species. To hyphenate all three words makes an unnecessarily long 

 name. Hence, I take pleasure in dedicating it to its author. 



Cryptococcus Corsellii Neveu-Lemaire, Precis Parasitol. Anim. Domest. 

 60, 1912. 



Blastomicete Corselli & Frisco, Ann. Ig. Sperim. 5: 433-447, Pis. 12-15, 1895. 



Isolated from a sarcoma. 



Colonies small, more or less circular on gelatin, glycerol agar, or sugar 

 agar. No growth on potato or fruit. Cells spherical, sprouting. Ascospores 

 reported, but figures not very convincing. Description too inadequate for 

 further identification. Notes on use of various stains in organism and in 

 tissue.
