Vibriosis is a significant problem in rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri Richardson, culture in fresh water in north-eastern Italy. Furunculosis is the main cause of disease in brown trout, Salmo trutta L., and brook trout, Salvelinus fontinalis. Spontaneous outbreaks over the period 1975-1978 are described together with relevant husbandry and environmental parameters associated with them. Biological, chemical and physiological characteristics of 40 bacterial strains isolated from outbreaks are described.
