Summary
In a collection of rodents from one locality a remarkable irregularity of monthly incidence of lung adiaspores was observed. The highest frequency of infection was ascertained in animals captured in April and May. The authors consider this phenomenon to be important for the elucidation of the life cycle ofEmmonsia crescens in nature.
