For part 1 see Abst. 4994, Vol. 41. 2. Capercailzie (Tetrao urogallus), black game (Lyrurus tetrix), hazel hens (Tetrastes bonasia) and grouse (Lagopus lagopus) were obtained in Finnish Lappland north of the Arctic Circle in September and October. Vitamin A in the liver was estimated by the Carr and Price method. For 21 capercailzie the mean was 25 598 IU/100 g liver, for 17 black game 21 820, for 23 hazel hens 53 334 and for 11 grouse 88 603. The high values will be discussed in another paper. D. L.
