OBSEUVATIONS ON TRICHOMYCOSIS AXILLARIS. 261 M. chromidrogemis ruber, which was isolated from a case of chromi-drosis, is characterised by the fact that it does not grow on potato ;its colouring matter is not soluble in water, and when treated bysulphuric acid the red colour turns blue-green, while M. castellaniidoes grow on potato and its colouring matter is unaffected by 25per cent sulphuric acid ; it appears to be closely i-elated to M. roseusvar. carneus, and to be non-parasitic. our own observations and those of Chalmers and OFarrellit would appear that when the nocardial fungus first attacks the hair.
