A survey concerning the occurrence of filariasis was carried out in Likupang, a village in the Minahassa, the norther tip of the Island of Celebes. We found four patients with elephantiasis of the leg. Only of people living in their neighbourhood proved to be positive for microfilariae of Brugia malayi. This result differs from surveys formerly carried out in whole Sulawesi, where locally microfilariae of Wuchereria bancrofti occurred next to those of B. malayi.
在西里伯斯岛北端米纳哈萨的利库庞村开展了一项关于丝虫病发病情况的调查。我们发现了4例腿部象皮肿患者。仅其邻里居民被证明马来布鲁线虫微丝蚴检测呈阳性。这一结果与之前在整个苏拉威西岛进行的调查不同，在苏拉威西岛当地，班氏吴策线虫微丝蚴与马来布鲁线虫微丝蚴并存。
