abstract: 38,343 strains of Salmonella (34,138 isolated in Metropolitan France) were examined at the national Salmonella Centre (Pasteur Institute, Paris), during the years 1973 to 1976. The origins are scheduled in this report according to the serotypes classified in alphabetical order with O groups of Kauffmann-White schema. Incidence of II and IV subgenera is low. One serotype of the sub-genus III, S. arizonae 18 : z4, z32 : has appeared in poultry plants, specially in turkeys. The most frequent serotype remains S. typhi-murium, followed by S. wien (appeared in France in 1970), S. saint-paul the numbers of which increase. S. panama is at 4th place.
