1. Two cases of human toxoplasmosis are discussed. These increase the total number proven by morphologic demonstration of the parasite to thirty-nine.

2. One represents the second case of toxoplasmosis recorded in a still-born infant and reconfirms the concept that intra-uterine infection occurs.

3. A possible relationship between atypical erythroblastosis fetalis and congenital toxoplasmosis is postulated.

4. Attention is directed to the apparent high incidence of toxoplasmosis in Panama which seems to be a center of relatively high endemnicity.

5. The current clinical classification of toxoplasmosis has been slightly modified.
