Several series of dogs have been inoculated with leishmania strains obtained from the clinical condition of skin leishmaniasis known in Perú as uta. To this effect, the inoculum consisted of material directly taken from uta lesions as well as frora cultures of the parasite. The results were as follows: 1. It was impossible to infect dogs with cultures kept in vitro only, from 5 to 8 years, in spite that three dífferent series of inoculations were done. 2. 87 per cent of positives were obtained when the dogs were inoculated with freshly isolated cultures. However, although inoculations were done under exactly the same experimental conditions on the exposed dorsal aspect of the snout and the inner surface of one ear, the infection took chiefly on the snout. 3. lt was also possible to infect dogs using as inoculum leishmaniasis lesions material obtained directly from either uta cases or from experimentaly induced lesions in other dogs.
