Streptococcus iniae, a bacterial infection in barramundi Lates calcarifer [PDF]
The cause of ongoing mortality in barramundi Lates calcarifer (Bloch) in seawater culture was identified as Streptococcus iniae by biochemical and physiological tests. This is the first published record of this bacterial species in Australia and the first confirmed report of S. iniae causing mortality in barramundi.

Streptococcus iniae Discitis in Singapore
To the Editor: Streptococcus iniae is a well-recognized fish pathogen that can cause meningoencephalitis in tilapia and trout (1) and necrotizing myositis in red drum (2). We describe the first known human case of S. iniae infection in Singapore. This is the second report of spinal infection with this bacterium; however, commercial kits may misidentify
