Nicolle and Adil-Bey (1899) state that it exists in a latent form in European Turkey and Asiatic Turkey ; and Lignieres (1900), after a.

Smith and Kilborne, and afterwards Stiles, described two forms: an acute, rapidly fatal form, in which the Piroplasma higeminum is found in the blood of the general circulation, in the spleen and kidneys ; and a chronic form, in which, notwithstanding the absence of clinical signs, the parasites may be discovered in the blood under the form of diplococci. Lignieres describes a grave and a benignant form. The grave form E E.
