Abstract
Aquaculture evolution is required to keep up with the demand for fish supply. Consequently, disease outbreaks are more frequent, causing substantial losses for the industry. An important pathology in fish is vibriosis, caused by Vibrio sp. and might induce symptoms like pale gills, hemorrhagic lesions, gastroenteritis, skin ulcers and tail rot. An important pathogen, which occurs in warmer waters, is Vibrio harveyi, a gram-negative bacteria. Broodstock Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) reared at EPPO diseased and eventually died, and were sampled for bacteriological, parasitological and histopathological analysis. Results showed hemorrhagic lesions on skin and gills and bacterial growth in swabs from spleen and liver tissue. Biochemical and PCR analysis identified Vibrio harveyi and histopathology revealed mild vascular congestion and associated hemorrhages in the spleen. This case report could help to develop strategies for the detection and prevention of these diseases in aquaculture.

期刊介绍:
Aquaculture Reports will publish original research papers and reviews documenting outstanding science with a regional context and focus, answering the need for high quality information on novel species, systems and regions in emerging areas of aquaculture research and development, such as integrated multi-trophic aquaculture, urban aquaculture, ornamental, unfed aquaculture, offshore aquaculture and others. Papers having industry research as priority and encompassing product development research or current industry practice are encouraged.
