In connection with the statement that angiostrongy-losis has not been recorded in Australia, which appeared in a book review, Gutteridge states that he will shortly be presenting a report of a patient in Brisbane, Australia, with eosinophilic meningitis almost certainly due to infection with Angio-strongylus sp., and introducing a new diagnostic test. It is also stated that 3 other cases of eosinophilic meningitis in Brisbane will be reported shortly.
