Infection with Absidia corymbifera in bank voles (Clethrionomys glariolus). 1980

M J Corbel, and D W Redwood, and S M Eades

Bank voles, Clethrionomys glariolus, kept under laboratory conditions were highly susceptible to both naturally-acquired and experimental infection with the phycomycete Absidia corymbifera. The infection was manifested as an acute lethal disease characterized by fungal invasion of the kidneys, central nervous system and, less frequently, other tissues. Natural infection was probably acquired via the respiratory route.
