Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus intermedius were identified in 64 (79%) and 17 (21%) strains from birds of prey, in 1 (3%) and 28 (97%) strains from water birds, and in 4 (21%) and 15 (79%) strains from pheasants, respectively. Of the total number of the 69 S.aureus strains 45 (65%) could be biotyped. Biotype D prevailed in the strains from birds of prey. Among all the 60 S.intermedius strains 41 (68%) biotype 1 and 19 (32%) biotype 3 strains could be recognized. Biotype 1 predominated in strains from water birds and pheasants, while biotype 3 in strains from birds of prey. Resistance to antibiotics was recorded in 8 (12%) S.aureus and 5 (8%) S.intermedius strains only. Fifty-six (81%) of the 69 S.aureus strains could be typed with human phages, 30 (44%) with bovine and 41 (51%) with chicken phages. It is evident that the host range of Shimizu's (CH) phages involves not only S.aureus from chicken but also from any other birds. None of these strains was typable with canine phages. Out of the 60 S.intermedius strains 45 (75%) were lysed with Blouse and Meekins' canine phages.

Until now the following viruses have been proven to circulate in the country: tick-borne encephalitis (TBE), Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF), Bhanja (BHA), sandfly fever (SF), Tahyna (TAH), Calovo (CVO), West Nile (WN), dengue (DEN), Jug Bogdanovac (JB), and Hantaviruses. TBE virus is endemic in the north-west part of the country, causing also epidemics in cyclical intervals. Its typical clinical picture is aseptic meningitis, but severe cases with paralysis have also been described. The bite of ticks is confirmed in about 80% of cases. CCF caused a small epidemic with ten clinical cases in Macedonia in 1976. Bhanja virus was isolated on the Dalmatian island of Brac in 1977, the antibody rate there, determined by the HI method, being about 31%. The first human disease in the world was caused by the Yugoslav Bhanja virus strain. Sandfly fever is still active in the country. The Naples type is prevailing and has proved hazardous for newcomers. Hantaviruses have been studied since 1980.
