Of 1,065 persons sampled during a house-to-house survey of an area of the Department of Curuzú Cuatiá, Province of Corrientes, Argentina, 21 were seropositive to Brucella canis antibodies by the gel-diffusion test, using a saline-extracted B. ovis surface R antigen. Two positive reactors were similarly identified during a survey of rural schools in the Province of Neuquén, which included 887 persons. The findings are discussed in terms of current knowledge of this recently recognized zoonotic infection.

Accepted for publication July 1, 1978.
