An investigation was undertaken of a total of 1020 genital organs from goats with regard to malformations and pathological changes of the genital tract. 2. A total of 69 organs with some form of abnormality were recorded. These comprise 6.8 % of the total material. 3. Ovarian cysts were observed in 24 organs, or in 2.4 % of the total material. The size of the cysts varied from 1.2 to 3.7 cm in diameter. 4. Cysts in the ovarian bursa and mesosalpinx were recorded in 11 cases. 5. Three cases of hydrometra were observed. 6. Malformations of the foetus, with the exception of hermaphroditism, occur relatively seldom.
