Abstract
Abstract. Recent heavy mortalities amongst O+ group turbot at a fish farm were found to be associated with a herpes‐type viral infection of the epithelia of the skin and gills. The morphology of the virus is described with ultrastructural observations on its morphogenesis and release from infected cells.
