Comment:
Summary information of studies by PFL Boreham, RE Pugh, D. Stenzel Upcroft JA, Dunn LA and others (see Bibliography for reference details) It is not yet established whether the two demes of B. hominis should be classified as discrete species or whether these groups are epidemiologically significant. (see Boreham PFL, Upcroft JA and Dunn LA. 1992. IJP 22:49-53.)
