The Primary object of this paper is to record a lung
condition occurring amongst the farming community of
South Cumberland, the Lake District and Westmorland,
which Munro Campbell, Faulds and myself believe to
be due to the inhalation of dust born fungi, and
accordingly a broncho- mycosis, for which I have
coined the name broncho -mycosis feniseciorum ( of
haymakers or harvesters) .

dc.description.abstract
This work has necessitated the investigation of much
of the recorded work on other types of broncha- mycoses
and some are briefly described, together with my own
observations. In a paper such as this it is impossible
to describe fully the morphological characteristics,
classification, life history, etc., of fungi. Much
has been written on the subject and reference should
be made to the more recent works, namely those of
(1) Bodin, (2) Brumpt, (3 ) Castellani, (4) Castellani and
Chalmers, (5) Ged oelst, (6) Gueguen, (7) Jacobson,
(8) Muir and Ritchie, (9) Ramsbottom, (10) Saccardo,
(11) Sartory, (12) Thom, (13) Thom and Church, and many
others. Erikson's (14) and Dodge's (15) works are
probably the most recent.
