and greenish, and on potato yellow- 

 ish. 



They occur in water. 

 Bacillus foetidus (/>'</, /;,//,* 

 t'.tt'ulnni. Thin). Cocci, short rods, 

 long rods, and leptothrix. The 

 cocci. 1-25 to 1 -4 p. in diam., occur 

 singly or in pairs. Spore-formation 

 present in the rods. 



They were isolated from the 

 exudation in a case of profuse 

 sweating of the feet, and the odour 

 was noticeable in the cultivation 

 (//Wr 1'xn-Uliis saprogene*}. 



Bacillus foetidus ozaenae (Ha- 

 j e k). Short rods, singly, in pairs, 

 and in short chains. Motile. 



Colonies irregular and liquefying. 

 In the depth of gelatine lique- 

 faction occurs along the track of 

 the needle. 



On agar the growth is moist and 

 shiny, and on potato yellowish- 

 brown. 



Cultures emit a disagreeable 

 odour. 



They produce a fatal result m 

 mice and local inflammation in 

 rabbits. 



They were isolated from cases 

 of ozsena. 



Bacillus fulvus (Zimmermann). 

 Rods -88 to 1-3 p in length, 

 77 p in width. Singly, in pairs 

 and in chains. 



Colonies vary in form ; granular, 

 yellowish-grey. 



In the depth of gelatine there is 

 a scanty faintly yellow growth in 

 the track of the needle, and a 

 hemispherical yellow mass on the 

 free surface. 



On agar and potato the growth 

 is yellow and shining. 

 They occur in water. 

 Bacillus fuscus (Zimmermann). 

 Rods -63 p in width, varying m 

 length ; sometimes bent and irregu- 

 lar in form. 



Colonies irregular, granular, and 

 greyish-yellow. 



In the depth of gelatine a 

 hemispherical mass appears on the 

 free surface, which later spreads 

 and forms a yellow wrinkled layer. 

 On agar and potato the layer u 

 similarly coloured. 



They occur in water. 



Bacillus fuscus limbatus 

 (Scheibenzuber). RmK and fila- 

 ments. 



Colonies with brown nucleus and 

 light periphery. 



Inoculated in the depth of gela- 

 tine the growth in the track of the 

 needle is branching and the jelly 

 coloured brown. 



On agar and potato the growth 

 is dark brown. 



They occur in rotten eggs. 



Bacillus gallinarum 

 ofFou-i /;///./;/;.<) <- 



Bacillus gasoformans 

 berg). Rods. 



The colonies are granular, and 

 liquefy the gelatine. 



The bacilli inoculated in the 

 depth of gelatine rapidly produce 

 liquefaction in the track of the 

 needle, and formation of gas 

 bubbles. 



They occur in water. 



Bacillus gingivae pyogenes: 

 vide Bacti rin in <i<m.i"' 



Bacillus glaucus (Maschek). 

 Rods. 



The colonies are well-defined, 

 greyish in colour, and after a time 

 liquefy the gelatine. 



The bacilli inoculated in the 

 depth of gelatine produce a rapid 

 growth in the track of the needle 

 and on the surface, followed by 

 liquefaction and a sediment at the 

 bottom of the liquid. 



On potato and agar they form a 

 greyish layer. 



They occur in water. 

 Bacillus gliscrogenus^ 

 Rods -57 to M4 p in length, '41 p 

 in width. 



Colonies spherical, granular. 

 The bacilli inonilated in the 

 depth of gelatine give rise to a 

 growth in the track of the needle 

 i composed of closely packed disc- 

 i shaped colonies. 



On agar they produce an opal 

 ; cent film. 



On potato they form a vi* 

 yellowish growth
