Summary Eight taxonomic tests were compared for their ability to distinguishCryptococcus neoformans from the non-pathogenic species ofCryptococcus. Eight isolates ofCryptococcus were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection and 43 isolates were obtained directly from human and natural sources. The tests which appeared to be most valuable to the routine diagnostic laboratory were growth at 37° C, characteristic growth on Guizotia seed agar and virulence for mice.
