The antigenic variations of T. equiperdum were studied on 11 rabbits infected with antigenically different clones derived from the same strain. During this work 101 serotypes were isolated by inoculation in mice and cloning. The corresponding immune sera were prepared. The agglutinating antibodies were determined in the rabbits 3-5 days after isolation of the corresponding type of parasite. The sequence of appearance of serotypes was revealed from the dates on which the homologous antibodies were recognized in the rabbit sera. The 1st serotype developed in each rabbit corresponded always to the inoculated clone. In rabbits infested with a different clone, the 1st variant that developed always belonged to the type BoTat-1, considered the base type of the strain. Within 3 wk there was successive development of a series of early variants in all the rabbits, in a fairly constant order. It was difficult to recognize an order in the sequence of appearance of later serotypes. The origin of these variations is unclear.
