Microbial agents of the owl monkey (Aotus trivirgatus). 1976

M D Daniel, and C E Fraser, and H H Barahona, and E M Hajema, and L V Melendez

A survey of the microbial flora in the owl monkey (Aotus trivirgatus) has led to the isolation of numerous bacterial, fungal, and viral agents. Some of the bacterial and fungal agents, particularly Dermatophilus, Pasteurella, Salmonella, Shigella, Yersinia, Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, and Candida are known pathogens. Viruses belonging to the herpesvirus, adenovirus, paramyxovirus, and papovavirus groups have been isolated from the owl monkey. Most of these viruses were recovered as latent agents from kidney cell cultures. Thus far, they have not been associated with clinical illness or specific lesions in the owl monkey and their infectivity for other animal hosts and for man is unknown.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010252 Paramyxoviridae A family of spherical viruses, of the order MONONEGAVIRALES, somewhat larger than the orthomyxoviruses, and containing single-stranded RNA. Subfamilies include PARAMYXOVIRINAE and PNEUMOVIRINAE. Ferlavirus,Ferlaviruses
D010325 Pasteurella The oldest recognized genus of the family PASTEURELLACEAE. It consists of several species. Its organisms occur most frequently as coccobacillus or rod-shaped and are gram-negative, nonmotile, facultative anaerobes. Species of this genus are found in both animals and humans.
D006564 Herpesviridae A family of enveloped, linear, double-stranded DNA viruses infecting a wide variety of animals. Subfamilies, based on biological characteristics, include: ALPHAHERPESVIRINAE; BETAHERPESVIRINAE; and GAMMAHERPESVIRINAE.

D000192 Actinomycetales An order of gram-positive, primarily aerobic BACTERIA that tend to form branching filaments. Corynebacteriaceae,Coryneform Group
D000261 Adenoviruses, Simian Species of the genus MASTADENOVIRUS associated with respiratory and enteric infections in primate hosts. Simian Adenoviruses,Adenovirus, Simian,Simian Adenovirus
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D000882 Haplorhini A suborder of PRIMATES consisting of six families: CEBIDAE (some New World monkeys), ATELIDAE (some New World monkeys), CERCOPITHECIDAE (Old World monkeys), HYLOBATIDAE (gibbons and siamangs), CALLITRICHINAE (marmosets and tamarins), and HOMINIDAE (humans and great apes). Anthropoidea,Monkeys,Anthropoids,Monkey
D001029 Aotus trivirgatus A species in the family AOTIDAE, inhabiting the forested regions of Central and South America (from Panama to the Amazon). Vocalizations occur primarily at night when they are active, thus they are also known as Northern night monkeys.
