Abstract
Infection of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., in seawater with Exophiala salmonis is described. Histological effects consisted principally of granuloma formation, especially in the posterior kidney and spread appeared to occur both by extension and by the liaematogenous route. The nature of the outbreak suggested that the original infection occurred via contaminated food.A comparison is made between this condition and systemic mycoses in other species.Keywords
