Data are presented concerning the study of the phage type of Sh. sonnei isolated in various regions of the USSR. The strains isolated belonged to 64 phage types corresponding to the Hammarström's scheme. A variety of Shigella sonnei phage types both in one and in different territories of the country provided future prospects for successful use of phage typing for the purpose of epidemiological supervision and analysis of dysentery morbidity.
