摘要
Histological examination of moribund specimens of turbot grow-out facilities in northwest Galicia (Spain) revealed lesions severe enough to be responsible for the diseased condition and death of many fish. The lesions were caused by 2 agents, the microsporidian Tetramicra brevifilum, already described from the same host farmed in the same region and a histophagous ciliate. Both agents were found in mixed infections; the dominant role in pathogenesis was played by the histophagous ciliate which was tentatively assigned to the subclass Hymenostomata, order Scuticociliatida Small, 1967.
