This chapter describes the epidemiology, prevalence, distribution, phylogenetics, pathogenesis, diagnosis, prevention and control rhabdoviral haemorrhagic septicaemia in domestic and wild fishes.

Spring viraemia of carp (SVC) is often a fatal haemorrhagic disease of common carp, Cyprinus carpio, and other fishes. It is caused by the Spring viraemia of carp virus (SVCV), a rhabdovirus of the type species, Carp sprivivirus, in the genus Sprivivirus. The host range; geographic range; mode of...

This chapter describes Epizootic haematopoietic necrosis virus (EHNV) and European catfish virus (ECV), which belong to a group of emerging pathogens - all of which are relevant to fish health - for which understanding of their epizootiology is incomplete. EHNV and ECV belong to the genus Ranavirus ...
