Of sera from 204 pigeons examined, 1.5% displayed reactions against antigens of A. fumigatus and A. flavus, 3.9% against A. nidulans, 2.9% against C. albicans and 38.7% against A. niger, by immunoprecipitation. Using immunoelectrophoresis, only serum from 1 pigeon showed an arc against A. niger antigen.
