Novel Betaherpesviruses in Neotropical Bats on the Caribbean Island of St. Kitts: First Report from Antillean Tree Bats (Ardops nichollsi) and Evidence for Cross-Species Transmission [PDF]
MicroorganismsTo date, limited information is available on herpesviruses in bats from the Caribbean region. We report here high detection rates (24.24%, n = 66) of herpesviruses in oral samples from apparently healthy bats (Ardops nichollsi (75%, 9/12) and Molossus ...
