Abstract
IN the course of establishing the antigenic formula for a new Salmonella serotype, S. greenside, its specific-phase flagellar antigen (z) was found to differ from the usual type as seen in S. poona, but to be identical to that of S. bulawayo1. Taylor, in describing the antigen z 35 of S. chittagong, mentioned its relationship to both z of S. poona and a of S. paratyphi A.2. Common factors between a, z, and the antigen z 35 of S. cairina were also described by Kauffmann3, although z 35 in this case was found to be slightly different from that of S. chittagong.
