CeUi and Fiocca* were the first to study the amebas system- atically and to cultivate them upon artificial media. Councilman and Lafleur pointed out that there were two varieties of amebas which they called Amoeba coli and Amoeba dysenteriae. The former was supposed to be a harmless commensal, the latter a ""!>.', rM'i. Fig. 265.—^Amoeba coli in intestinal mucus with blood-corpuscles and bacteria (Losch). pathogenic organism and the cause of dysentery. As, however, Losch had called the organism found in dysentery the Amceba coli, Stiles declared the nomenclature faulty, and pointed out that Amoeba coh, variety dysenteriae, must be the name of the pathogenic form. Schaudinnf reviewed the subject and grouped all of the intestinal amebas under the following: L Chlamydophrys stercorea (Cienkowsky). n. Amoeba coli rhizopodia. 1. Entamoeba coli (Losch) (Schaudinn). 2. Entamoeba histolytica (Schaudinn). To these has been since added in 1907: Entamoeba tetragena (Viereck). I.
