Five isolations of Leptospira were made from Rattus rattus on Ishigaki Island of the Yaeyama Islands in the Ryukyus in 1967 and 1968. By cross-agglutination tests and cross-absorption tests, all were identified as Leptospira javanica, Rat Batavia 46 strain. The organisms showed little pathogenicity for guinea pigs.

Accepted for publication September 30, 1971.
