 and Charles Black), 177 pp. 



VI. Antisera for bloods of Cetacea. 



94 Tests with Anti-Whale Serum. 



These tests are not included in the tables at the end, for the reason 

 that the antiserum had not been obtained when they were written. The 

 tests were all made with one antiserum obtained from a rabbit treated 

 with the serum and blood of Balaenoptera rustrata, the Rorqual 

 (No. 385 a), the blood having been kindly sent me by Professor Torup 

 of Christiania. 



When standardized, the antiserum gave a precipitum of '009 c.c.

 anti-donkey serum (Ungulata, Cetacea) given in the tables at the end.
