Abstract
First paragraph: Lymphocystis is a viral disease with a worldwide geographical distribution that has been described in more than 125 species of teleost fish from marine and freshwater environments, affecting both wild and cultured fish (Anders 1989). However, in South Atlantic and Mediterranean mariculture, this disease affects gilthead seabream, Sparus aurata L., and Senegalese sole, Solea senegalensis (Kaup) (Menezes, Ramos & Pereira 1987; Le Deuff & Renault 1993; Borrego, Castro, Balebona, Garcia-Rosado & Lopez-Cortes 2001; Alonso, Cano, Garcia-Rosado, Castro, Lamas, Barja & Borrego 2005). The external sign of lymphocystis disease (LCD) is the appearance of pearl-like nodules, either singly or in groups, on the skin, fins and tail of the affected fish (Wolf 1988). Similar nodules may occur internally over the mesenteries, peritoneum and several internal organs (Wolf 1988; Colorni & Diamant 1995). These viral lesions usually appear under stress conditions derived from intensive fish farming, such as water contamination, nutritional deficiencies and oxygen depletion (Plumb 1993; Borrego et al. 2001).
