Numerous papillomas ranging in size from 1--10 mm were seen in four colobus monkeys (Colobus guereza). The lesions were confined to the fingers and toes and to the dorsal-lateral aspects of the hands and feet distal to the carpus and tarsus. Electron microscopy of two of the lesions revealed compactly arranged crystalline arrays of intranuclear virus particles in the epidermis. The particles were seen only in cells of the stratum granulosum and stratum corneum. By the negative stain technique, the non-enveloped spherical particles measured 52--58 mm in diameter. The arrangement of the capsomeres was consistent with an icosahedral symmetry. The observations suggested a viral etiology for the cutaneous papillomas similar to that of other mammalian species.
