A malignant melanocytic tumor was found in an 8-week-old chicken. The tumor, which was composed of melanocytes, ganglion cells, nerves, and primitive pressure receptors, was examined by light microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and immunohistochemistry. Antibodies to neuron-specific enolase (NSE), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and S-100 protein variably stained nerves, but melanocytes were only rarely immunolabelled by NSE antibodies and there was no specific staining of these cells for S-100 or GFAP. Ultrastructurally, neoplastic melanocytes contained melanin within melanosomes and premelanosomes and did not resemble Schwann cells.
