Abstract
Vibrio vulnificus was enumerated in seawater and shellfish from two Florida estuaries at selected seasonal intervals. There were significant fluctuations in the presence and numbers of V. vulnificus. Relatively high seawater temperature and salinity favored the presence of V. vulnificus in both seawater and shellfish samples.
