M Maryland Laboratory
Identifies Killer As
Deadly Animal Para
site; Study Life Cycle.
BY Associated Press

\
MSx, the mysterious oyster kill
er, has now been tentatively iden-
titled as an animal parasite, the
Chesapeake Biological Laboratory
announced last Friday.
DR.. L. Eugene Cronin, laboratory
director, said the identification was
made after examination of hundreds
of slides from infected oysters by
two highly experienced paristolo-
gists. Until then it was not known
whether the organism was a plant
or an animal.
The finding will narrow some
what scientific search which still
has long way to go. Nothing is
known about the life cycle of the
killer, its appearance in various
stages of development, how it is
transmitted from one oyster to an
other, and how it spends the win
ter.
Once some of these factors are
known, scientists may be able to
interrupt the life cycle at some
point DR.. CrOnin indicated.
The Maryland laboratory is
working in close cooperation with
those of New Jersey, Delaware,
Virginia and the federal govern
ment in an effort to learn. some
thing about the organism which
decimated oyster beds in Delaware
Bay and some areas Of Virginia. 1t
has not yet been identified in Mary
land waters of the Chesapeake.
Dr. John S. Karling, former di-
rector of the school of biological
sciences at Purdue University and
an authority on pathogenic fungi,
was brought to the Solomons labo-
rat0ry this summer for special
studies concerning identity of the
parasite.
