Abstract
A description of a pustular dermatitis of the legs among Negroes of Nigeria that seems to be due to Staphylococcus albus and S. aureus. No successful chemotherapy has been found although arsenicals, vitamins, antibiotics and coal-tar derivatives were tried. This condition seems to be a hitherto undescribed disease entity.Keywords
