Abstract

This is a first confirmed report of vibriosis or ‘red‐pest’ from wild eel (Anguilla anguilla) stocks in Great Britain. It is postulated that the epizootic was provoked by severe stress resulting from the abnormally high estuarine water temperatures and low freshwater flows present in affected rivers at the time. Bacteriological characteristics of the isolate, which was classified as a Vibrio sp., are described.
