Extract

Through the kindness of H. H. Woken, the veterinary surgeon of the Zoological Garden in Leningrad, we were able to examine the faeces of two species of birds—the grey partridge (Perdix perdix) and the stone partridge (Caccabis chucar). It is very probable that the coccidian found by us is common to both species of birds, but as they were kept in the same cage it was not possible to determine the origin of the faeces examined.
