1. The riboflavin content of 658 urine specimens has been determined.
2. Evidence is presented that the riboflavin per milliliter of urine is a more constant value than others which have been used in expressing riboflavin excretion.
3. Saturation tests seldom give more information than can be obtained by analysis of a fasting morning specimen.
4. There is a widespread incidence of riboflavin deficiency in this area.
