Abstract
A short-tailed female bat (Carollia perspicillata), 1 year old, died without apparent signs of the disease while on display at an amusement park in the Municipality of Montemorelos, Nuevo León, Mexico. Amphophilic nuclear inclusion bodies were observed in the intestinal epithelia, corresponding to the virus of the adenovirus genera. Although there have been no reported adenovirus cases of this bat species in Mexico, through an anatomopathological study and support from the microscopic, ultrastructural, and molecular findings of intestinal lesions, a diagnosis of enteritis caused by Adenovirus Type 2 was made. To the authors' knowledge, the case described herein is the first report of infection by Adenovirus Type 2 in a short-tailed bat in Mexico.
