RESUMEN
A sero-epidemiological study of human CF and indirect immunofluorescence antibodies against murine typhus was conducted in Indonesia. Antibody prevalences ranged from 10% to 20% in sera of Indonesians from Java and Sumatra to less than 2% in sera from islands east of Java.

An investigation of the distribution and prevalence of hookworms in dogs and cats was carried out during the year 1976 in the area of Jakarta. Sixty-eight percent of the dogs harboured A. caninum, whereas 37% harboured A. ceylanicum and 18% A. braziliense and 32.1% as A. ceylanicum. Hookworms were recovered from 78% of the fifty cats; 72% of the cats were infected with A. braziliense and 24% with A.ceylanicum. Among the 1895 hookworms in cats, 73,5% were A. braziliense and 24.5% were A. ceylanicum. Only one female A. tubaeforme was found in one cat.

Sera of 465 goats from several of the Indonesian islands were tested for indirect haemagglutinating (IHA) antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii. Titers greater than or equal to 1:16 were found in 24% of the animals with approximately 11% having titers of greater than or equal to 1:256. Sera from pigs, cows, water buffaloes and horses were also tested and only pig sera had IHA antibodies at titers above greater than or equal to 1:16. The possible role of goats in transmission of toxoplasmosis is discussed briefly.
