A number of agar media were tested for the detection of Aspergillus restrictus in whole kernels of wheat and corn. Water agar and peptone or beef-peptone agar, each containing 18% sodium chloride, were better for this purpose than any of the other media tested; any of these three media appears to be a satisfactory selective medium for the fungus.
