B. pullorum isolated from sparrows by T. Dalling, J. H. Mason and W. S. Gordon, Langley Court, Beckenham, Kent. The Veterinary Record. April 28th. 1928.

Authors have, without success, searched the literature on B. W. D. for any record of B. pullorum in any animal except the domestic fowl. Authors isolated B. pullorum from the liver of a sparrow which was caught in a chicken run in which chickens had succumbed to B. W. D. The sparrow showed evidence or diarrhea. Also from other sparrows, having been caught in chicken runs have been isolated. These findings open up the question of a further source of infection of chicks with B. W. D.
