title: Aspergillosis in ostriches.
abstract: A severe case of aspergillosis was observed in a flock of 3- to 8-week-old ostriches at a farm in Israel. A. niger and A. flavus were isolated from the lungs of affected ostriches. A heavy contamination with both fungi was detected in the hatchery, suggesting a brooder borne infection. The clinical and pathological findings observed in this case are described.
