Abstract
The colonial morphology and other cultural characteristics of Branhame lla ovis were studied. The current investigation showed that colonies could be designated R (rough) and S (smooth) dependent on their appear ance on agar. The colonial variants were apparently stable and each pr oduced distinct types of pitting when grown on agar. A CAMP-like react ion was also shown to be a characteristic of B. ovis.
