A severe and highly fatal disease occurred in African green monkeys (Cercopithecus aethiops). The disease was marked by an extensive maculo-vesicular rash. In fatal cases, multifocal necrosis and hemorrhage were found characteristically in many organs and tissues. New cases of the disease occurred over a 39-day period. Nine of 49 exposed African green monkeys were affected and five of the nine died. Four cynomolgus (Macaca fascicularis) and 31 stumptailed monkeys (Macaca arctoides) which were exposed were not affected. Delta Herposvirus was isolated from affected African green monkeys. Stumptailed monkeys housed in association with the African green monkeys, as well as those housed elsewhere, had significant serum concentrations of neutralizing antibodies to this agent.
