THE RELAPSING FEVERS 



2. Relapsing Fever of Central America. 



Darling has described cases of relapsing fever in Panama, 

 clinically similar to the North American type, but the organism 

 has not been definitely classified. 



3. Relapsing Fever of South America. 



In South America (Colombia) a relapsing fever occurs in which 

 the spiroschaudinnia resembles more closely S. duttoni than S. novyi. 

 According to Robledo, this parasite is carried by OrnithodoYOs 

 turicatus.
