In a series of five laboratory experiments observations were made on the role of Pilobolus in the translation of infective lungworm larvae from faeces of cattle. The results indicated that a substantial proportion of the lungworm larvae present in the faeces may be translated from the faeces by this fungus within eight days at a temperature of 15 degrees C. No clear relationship was observed between the numbers of Pilobolus and the translation of lungworm larvae. Further a longitudinal study on the occurrence of Pilobolus on faecal pats of grazing calves showed that between the beginning of July and the middle of September peak emergence of sporangia generally occurred within one week and most sporangia emerged within three weeks. From faecal pats which had been deposited at the end of September and the middle of October emergence of sporangia was lower and mainly occurred after two to four weeks.
