A new Salmonella type, S. kentucky, is described. It was isolated from the intestinal tract of a chick affected with coccidiosis and ulcerative enteritis. The organism possesses two hitherto undescribed antigens, one somatic, the other flagellar. It exhibits alpha-beta phase variation and the alpha phase is identical with the specific phase of S. typhi-murium. The antigenic formula of S. kentucky is VIII XX: i-z6:-.
